Set up a ratio of height over shadow length:

3.2/1.29 = X/39.25

Cross multiply:

1.29x = 3.2 * 39.25

Simplify:

1.29x = 125.6

Divide both sides by 1.29:

x = 97.364 meters

Round to the nearest meter = 97 meters

Answer:

the first option, (-4, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

for this question, we can use the substitution method. this is where we substitute the coordinates in the answer choices into the given system of inequalities or equations to determine which one is true.

1. (-4,6)

x + 4y > 12

-4 + 4(6) > 12

20 > 12 is true

now we can substitute the second inequality.

3(6) > -4 + 6

18 > 2 is true, therefore making this set of points true.

it may be helpful to substitute the rest of the values of x and y into the inequalities to verify your answers :

5 + 4(2) > 12

5 + 8 > 12

13> 12 is true

3(2) > 5 + 6

6 > 11 is not true

the rest of the answer choices are also not true.

I hope this helped you!

NEED HELP ASAP, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Stella [2.4K]

Given:

The equation of circle is

(x+3)^2+y^2=9

To find:

The polar form of given circle.

Solution:

We have,

(x+3)^2+y^2=9

x^2+2(x)(3)+(3)^2+y^2=9        [\because (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2]

(x^2+y^2)+6x+9=9

Subtracting 9 from both sides, we get

(x^2+y^2)+6x=0

We know that, x^2+y^2=r^2 and x=r\cos \theta.

r^2+6(r\cos \theta)=0

r(r+6\cos \theta)=0

r=0 and r+6\cos \theta=0

We know that, r is radius it cannot be 0. So,

r+6\cos \theta=0

r=-6\cos \theta

Therefore, the correct option is A.
