Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P=2a+b

Solve for a.

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate a.

P=2a+b

P/2=a+b/2

When you rewrite the equation, it becomes:

a=P/2-b/2 (The sign changes from a positive to a negative because you need to move P/2 to the other side to get a to one side)

Therefore, your final answer is: a=P/2-b/2

Hope this helped!

Katarina [22]

Complete Question

The length of the guy wire supporting a cell tower is 120 m. The guy wire is anchored to the ground at a distance of 80 m from the base of the tower to the nearest hundredth of a meter how tall is the tower?

Answer:

89.44m

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using the Pythagoras Theorem

This is given as:

Hypotenuse² = Opposite ² + Adjacent ²

Hypotenuse = Length of the guy wire = 120m

Adjacent = Distance from the base of the tower = 80m

Opposite = Height of the building = x

Hence:

120² = x² + 80²

Collect like terms

x² = 120² - 80²

x = √120² - 80²

x = √(8000)

x = 89.4427191 m

Approximately the height of the tower is = 89.44m

The table shows a linear function. <br>which equation represents the function?

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

The equation $f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4$ represents the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope intercept form to find the equation of line :

For any two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ the equation of line is given by:

$y -y _1 = m(x-x_1)$ ......[1] ;where m is the slope given by:

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Consider any two points from table :

let (4, 2) and (0, 4) be any two points.

calculate slope:

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{4-2}{0-4}$

$m = \frac{2}{-4} = -\frac{1}{2}$

Now, substitute in equation [1] we have:

$y - 2 = -\frac{1}{2} (x-4)$

Distributive property i.e, $a\cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b + a\cdot c$

$y -2 = -\frac{1}{2}x +2$

Add both sides 2 we get;

$y -2+2 = -\frac{1}{2}x+2+2$

Simplify:

$y = -\frac{1}{2}x+4$

Since, y= f(x)

$f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4$

therefore, the equation $f(x)= -\frac{1}{2}x +4$ represents the function.
