Answer:
x = 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
(This question has already been answered, but both of the incorrect ones were deleted, so for future reference...)
Fig A is a scale image of Fig D. These two quadrilaterals are similar, and thus, the side lengths of corresponding sides are proportional. Set the proportion x/3 = 7.2/4 (you could alternatively write it as x/7.2 = 3/4 but for the simplicity's sake, and assuming anyone who has this problem would already know how to solve proportions like these...)
7.2/4 = 1.8
so
x/3 = 1.8
now multiply both sides by 3 to get x = 5.4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The easier way to figure this is by using the concept of torque in physics. If the torque of the man is greater than that experienced by the box, the lever will tilt in the man's favor (in other words, he will move down and the box will be lifted). Torque is found by multiplying the perpendicular force by the length of the lever arm. Because we want the man's torque to be greater than the box's torque, the inequality is:
and
That decimal is 6 inches in terms of meters.
180r > 76.2 so
r > .42 meters or `16.67 inches. The man has to sit at a distance greater than 16.67 inches in order for the box to be lifted by the lever.
The question is for any rational function. I give one example in picture below. There we can see that first part of the "rule" is true. we indeed have vertical asymptotes at every x value where denominator is zero in this case x = 3 and x = 1. but second part of the rule is not true. we can see that if we inverse x ( we have factor that looks like a - x we get positive function between asymptotes.
Answer is False
