Answer : The correct option is, (B) 56.8

Step-by-step explanation :

Right Triangle Altitude Theorem:

The measure of altitude drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right angled triangle to its hypotenuse is the geometric mean between the measures of the two segments of the hypotenuse.

We are drawing a line from vertex to hypotenuse side.

As per theorem:

\frac{BD}{AB}=\frac{CB}{AC}

\frac{BD}{60}=\frac{175}{185}

BD=\frac{175\times 60}{185}

BD=56.8

Therefore, the length of the altitude to the hypotenuse is 56.8

Answer:

cost of nachos = $3.45

Cost of tacos = $1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of nachos

y = cost of tacos

11x + 18y = 64.95 (1)

6x + 15y = 43.20 (2)

Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 11 to eliminate x

66x + 108y = 389.70

66x + 165y = 475.20

Subtract to eliminate x

165y - 108y = 475.20 - 389.70

57y = 85.50

y = 85.50/57

y = 1.5

Substitute y = 1.5 to find x

11x + 18y = 64.95 (1)

11x + 18(1.5) = 64.95

11x + 27 = 64.95

11x = 64.95 - 27

11x = 37.95

x = 37.95/11

x = 3.45

cost of nachos = $3.45

Cost of tacos = $1.5

What is the y-intercept of the graph of y = 4^x-2?
mixas84 [53]

Answer: Hope this helps you.

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx+b (B is y-int)

y = 4^x-2

-2 is clearly replacing the b (y-int) meaning b, the y-int, is -2
