Answer is option B (hope this helps)
Answer:
<h3>6 feet</h3>
Step-by-step explanation
Using the pythagoras theorem;
Given
The length of the flag pole = 8 feet = opposite side
Length of the rope = 10 feet = hypotenuse
To determine how far out on the ground he need to secure the rope from the flagpole so that the rope is tight, we need to look for the adjacent. Using the equation
hyp² = opp² + adj²
10² = 8² + adj²
adj² = 100-64
adj² = 36
adj = √36
adj = 6feet
Hence the rope should be placed 6feet out of the ground
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
10 – 7x = 2 – 8x
– 7x + 8x = 2 + 10
x = 12
6a. y=-8(x-10)²
6b. y=(.15)(x+6)²
