The top of two poles of height's 20m and 14m are connected by the wire

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hatshy [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct option is;

10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

Height of the first pole = 20 m

Height of the second pole = 14 m

The angle the wire connected to their top makes with the horizontal = 30°

The vertical height subtended by the inclined wire, h = The difference in height between the two poles = 20 - 14 = 6 m.

Let the horizontal distance between the two poles = D

Therefore;

The horizontal length of the wire = D

From trigonometric ratios, we have;

tan(30 ^{\circ}) = \dfrac{h}{D} = \dfrac{6}{D}

Which gives;

D = \dfrac{6}{tan(30 ^{\circ}) }  = 10.39 \ m\approx 10 \ m

The correct option is 10 m.

Solve the following system of equations. 3x+4y=12
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

(0,3) is the solution set for given system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

3x+4y=12  ------- eq1

2x-3y= -9 ------- eq2

Multiplying eq1 with 2 and eq2 with 3 we get:

6x + 8y = 24 --------- eq1

6x - 9y = -27 -------- eq2

Subtracting eq2 from 1 we get:

17y = 51

Dividing both sides by 17 we get:

y = 3

Putting value of 3 in eq1 we get:

3x + 4(3) = 12

3x + 12 = 12

3x = 0

Dividing both sides by 3

x = 0

So the solution set will be: (0,3)

i hope it will help you.

What is the value for f(x)= 3^2x+1 when x =1/2
Papessa [141]
Taking 2x is power of 3.

So it will be like 3^(2*1/2) + 1
You are replacing 'x' with 1/2
and the equation becomes 3^1+1
So, f(1/2) = 4
Answer is 4.

If its like
<span>3^(2x+1)
Then its like 3^[(2*1/2) +1]
It becomes 3^(1+1) = 3^2 = 9
So, the answer is 9

Nata [24]

Beth's description of the transformation is incorrect

<h3>Complete question</h3>

Beth says that the graph of g(x)=x-5+1 is a translation of 5 units to the left and 1 unit up of f(x) = x. She continues to explain that the point (0,0) on the square root function would be translated to the point (-5,1) on the graph of g(x). Is Beth's description of the transformation correct? Explain

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The functions are given as:

g(x) = x - 5 + 1

f(x) = x

When the function f(x) is translated 5 units left, we have:

f(x + 5) = x + 5

When the above function is translated 1 unit up, we have:

f(x + 5) + 1 = x + 5 + 1

This means that the actual equation of g(x) should be

g(x) = x + 5 + 1

And not g(x) = x - 5 + 1

By comparison;

g(x) = x - 5 + 1 and g(x) = x + 5 + 1  are not the same

Hence, Beth's description of the transformation is incorrect
