Arielle is building the wooden framework for the roof of a house. She needs the angle created by the vertical and horizontal boa

rds of the frame to be a right angle. The height of the vertical board is 12 feet. The length of the horizontal board is 15 feet. The support beam that will connect the ends of the two boards measures 20 feet.

A² + b² = c²  ⇒ right triangle
a² + b² < c² ⇒ obtuse triangle
a² + b² > c² ⇒ acute triangle

a = 12 ft ; b = 15 ft ; c = 20 ft

12² + 15² = < > 20²
144 + 225 = < > 400
369 < 400 OBTUSE TRIANGLE

√369 = 19.21

20 - 19.21 = 0.79 

<span>It is an obtuse triangle. About 0.8 foot needs to be removed from the 20-foot board to create a right triangle.</span>

please help! functions and relations. f(x)= square root of x-4. find the inverse of f(x) and it’s domain.
likoan [24]

ANSWER:

\:D.\text{ }f^{-1}\left(x\right)=\left(x+4\right)^2;x\ge-4

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have the following equation:

f(x)=\sqrt{x}-4

The inverse is the following (we calculate it by replacing f(x) by x and x by f(x)):

\begin{gathered} x=\sqrt{f^{-1}(x)}-4 \\  \\ \sqrt{f^{-1}(x)}=x+4 \\  \\ f^{-1}(x)=(x+4)^2 \end{gathered}

The domain would be the range of the original equation, and it would be the range of values that f(x) could take, which was from -4 to positive infinity, that is, f(x) ≥ -4.

Therefore, the domain is x ≥ -4.

So the correct answer is D.

\:f^{-1}\left(x\right)=\left(x+4\right)^2;x\ge -4

horrorfan [7]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
 m: number of times you cut the grass
 d: amount of dollars you earn.
 We now write the linear equation that models the problem:
 d = 12m
 The slope of the line is 12, which means that each time you cut the grass, you earn 12 dollars.
 Answer:
 
an equation for the number of dollars, d, you earn when you mow the lawn m times is:
 
d = 12m
