Answer: The hook would be 2.2 inches (approximately) above the top of the frame

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for further details.

The top of the picture frame has been given as 9 inches and a 10 inch ribbon has been attached in order to hang it on a wall. The ribbon at the point of being hung up would be divided into 5 inches on either side (as shown in the picture). The line from the tip/hook down to the frame would divide the length of the frame into two equal lengths, that is 4.5 inches on either side of the hook. This would effectively give us two similar right angled triangles with sides 5 inches, 4.5 inches and a third side yet unknown. That third side is the distance from the hook to the top of the frame. The distance is calculated by using the Pythagoras theorem which states as follows;

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

Where AC is the hypotenuse (longest side) and AB and BC are the other two sides

5^2 = 4.5^2 + BC^2

25 = 20.25 + BC^2

Subtract 20.25 from both sides of the equation

4.75 = BC^2

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

2.1794 = BC

Rounded up to the nearest tenth, the distance from the hook to the top of the frame will be 2.2 inches

melomori [17]

Answer:

The length of the lights is 2088 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is mixed up with another (See comment for correct question)</em>

Given

Length = 799in

Width = 245in

Required

The perimeter of the deck (this is what the question implies)

The perimeter (P) is:

P =  2 * (Length + Width)

P =  2 * (799 + 245)

P =  2 * 1044

P =  2088

determine the maximum or minimum of the quadratic function. express your answer in the form (x,y) and using decimals rounded to
kolezko [41]

We are given the following quadratic equation

f(x)=2x^2+7x-10

The vertex is the maximum/minimum point of the quadratic equation.

The x-coordinate of the vertex is given by

h=-\frac{b}{2a}

Comparing the given equation with the general form of the quadratic equation, the coefficients are

a = 2

b = 7

c = -10

h=-\frac{b}{2a}=-\frac{7}{2(2)}=-\frac{7}{4}=-1.75

The y-coordinate of the vertex is given by

\begin{gathered} f(x)=2x^2+7x-10 \\ f(-1.75)=2(-1.75)^2+7(-1.75)-10 \\ f(-1.75)=2(3.0625)^{}-12.25-10 \\ f(-1.75)=6.125^{}-12.25-10 \\ f\mleft(-1.75\mright)=-16.13 \end{gathered}

This means that we have a minimum point.

Therefore, the minimum point of the given quadratic equation is

(-1.75,-16.13)

Triangle ABC is rotated 90 degrees clockwise about the origin to create triangle A'B'C'.
frozen [14]

Note: Consider we need to find the vertices of the triangle A'B'C'

Given:

Triangle ABC is rotated 90 degrees clockwise about the origin to create triangle A'B'C'.

Triangle A,B,C with vertices at A(-3, 6), B(2, 9), and C(1, 1).

To find:

The vertices of the triangle A'B'C'.

Solution:

If triangle ABC is rotated 90 degrees clockwise about the origin to create triangle A'B'C', then

(x,y)\to (y,-x)

Using this rule, we get

A(-3,6)\to A'(6,3)

B(2,9)\to B'(9,-2)

C(1,1)\to C'(1,-1)

Therefore, the vertices of A'B'C' are A'(6,3), B'(9,-2) and C'(1,-1).
