Set this up like a right triangle with the height of the triangle as 30, the angle across from that side, the reference angle, as 55, and the base is your unknown, x. This means that we have the angle, the side across from it, and the side adjacent to it. That sounds like the tangent ratio to me! Tangent of the angle is the side opposite over the side adjacent:
. Solving for x:
. Do that on your calculator in degree mode to get that the distance between the base of the ladder and the wall is 21 feet
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to draw a line of best fit, then extend the x-axis, but from inspection I think it is 23.
(19 is too low, 36 is too high)
Add 5 to both sides of the equation.
x=-14+5
Add -14 and 5.
x=-9
Answer:
The 4th graph
Step-by-step explanation:
To have a maximum value, your parabola would have to open downwards. So the first 2 are wrong. Since your y-intercept is positive 4, your graph would have to touch the y axis at 4. The 3rd graph is wrong since it touches the y-axis at a negative point. The correct answer would be the 4th answer choice.
