Answer:

A-does not exist  

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorian theorem :

  • 12²+x²= (x-2)²
  • 144+x²= x²-4x+4
  • 144-4+x²-x²= -4x
  • 140 = -4x
  • x = 140/-4
  • x= -35

That's absurd . A side cannot be negative since it's a distance

It was obvious from the beginning since one of the sides is greater than the hypotenus wich is impossible x≥x-2

Answer:

A. does not exist

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can find the value of x using Phytagorian Theorem

(x-2)^2 = 12^2 + x^2

x^2 -4x + 4 = 144 + x^2 (x^2 will be eliminated)

-4x = 144

x = -36 since the side lengths cannot be negative we select the option A which says it doesn't exist.

rise over run

(-1,2) (2,2)

2-2/2-(-1)

2-2/2+1 equals 0/3

or alternatively

2-2/-1 - 2 which would be -0/3.

Whichever point is the first helps determine this alot

rise/run=rise over run= y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

Use the graph to estimate the height of a jugglers ball that has been in the air for 1.5 seconds
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The height of a jugglers ball that has been in the air for 1.5 seconds is 6.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given height equation as

h=-16t^2+25t+5

where

h is the height in feet of a Juggler's ball after t seconds

now, we can plug t=1.5

h=-16(1.5)^2+25(1.5)+5

we can solve for h

h=42.5-16\cdot \:1.5^2

h=42.5-36

h=6.5

So,

The height of a jugglers ball that has been in the air for 1.5 seconds is 6.5 feet
