ANSWER
D. 25 feet
EXPLANATION
The height of the wall,h, the taut wire and the distance from the base of the pole to the point on the ground, formed a right triangle.
According to the Pythagoras Theorem, the sum of the length of the squares of the two shorter legs equals the square of the hypotenuse.
Let the hypotenuse ( the length of the ) taught wire be,l.
Then
Answer:
y=-3x+5
Explanation:
Given a line L such that:
• L has y-intercept (0,5); and
,• L is perpendicular to the line with equation y=(1/3)x+1.
We want to find the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form.
The slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is given as:
Comparing the given line with the form above:
Next, we find the slope of the perpendicular line L.
• Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.
Let the slope of L = m1.
Since L and y=(1/3)x+1 are perpendicular, therefore:
The y-intercept of L is at (0,5), therefore:
Substitute the slope, m=-3, and y-intercept, b=5 into the slope-intercept form.
The equation of line L is:
