Answer:

The question can be answered by using a Pythagoras' Theorem :  c^2=a^2+b^2 to find the base of  the pole to which each wire is  attached to the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

the base of the pole is represented by b.

the height of the pole is represented by a= 5 feet

the length of t he wire is represented by c=5 feet.

Thus, using the Phytagoras Theorem,

c^2=a^2+b^2,

6^2=5^2+b^2\\36=25+b^2,\\36-25=b^2\\Thus, b^2=11,\\b=\sqrt 11 or b=3.3.

Thus , each wire i attached by about 3.3 feet to the base of the pole.

Answer:

3.32ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The wire and the poles attached to the ground form a right triangle with the length of the wire being the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras Theorem:

Hypotenuse²=Adjacent²+Opposite²

6²=5²+x²

x²=36-25

x²=11

x=√11=3.32 ft.

The wires are attached 3.32 ft from the base of the pole on the ground

Which equation best represents the graph above
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is completely vertical there is no slope.

When a line is completely vertical, the setup is x = ___ (fill in the blank with the number that the line intersects on the x axis, in this case -1.)

When a line is completely horizontal (not applicable in this problem) the setup is y = ___ (fill in the blank with the number the line intersects on the y axis.)

Which values are with in the range of the piecewise defined function?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

y = -6; -3;  0

Step-by-step explanation:

To quickly solve this problem, we can use a graphing tool or a calculator to plot the equation.

Please see the attached image below, to find more information about the graph

The equation is:

f(x)  = 2x+2  , x < -3

f(x) = x, x = -3

f(x) = - x -2 , x > -3

From the graph, we can see that the values are

y = -6; -3;  0

It took Aiden 6 hours to plant 8 trees. How many hours would it take for him to plant 20 trees? 24, 18, 23, 15
Pepsi [2]
<h3>Answer: 15 hours (choice D)</h3>

================================================

Work Shown:

(6 hours)/(8 trees) = (x hours)/(20 trees)

6/8 = x/20

6*20 = 8*x ... cross multiply

120 = 8x

8x = 120

x = 120/8

x = 15

It takes him 15 hours to plant 20 trees.
