A wire is to be attached to support a telephone pole. Because of surrounding buildings, sidewalks, and​ roadways, the wire must

be anchored exactly 18 feet from the base of the pole. Telephone company workers have only 25 feet of​ cable, and 22 feet of that must be used to attach the cable to the pole and to the stake on the ground. How high from the base of the pole can the wire be​ attached?

This situation is a right triangle with the base measuring 18 and the hypotenuse 22.  We are looking for x, the height up the pole that the wire is going to be attached to.  We will use Pythagorean's Theorem to find the missing length.  22^2-18^2=x^2  and  484-324=x^2.  x^2 = 160 so x = 4 \sqrt{10} or 12.65 feet

marysya [2.9K]
The answer is y=10/7-5/7x, subtract the 5x and put it on the other side then divide the 7 from the y and divide it to 10-5x to get the answer.

Inga [223]

Answer:

f(2n)-f(n)=log2

b.lg(lg2+lgn)-lglgn

c. f(2n)/f(n)=2

d.2nlg2+nlgn

e.f(2n)/(n)=4

f.f(2n)/f(n)=8

g. f(2n)/f(n)=2

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the effect in the time required to solve a prob- lem when you double the size of the input from n to 2n, assuming that the number of milliseconds the algorithm uses to solve the problem with input size n is each of these function? [Express your answer in the simplest form pos- sible, either as a ratio or a difference. Your answer may be a function of n or a constant.]

from a

f(n)=logn

f(2n)=lg(2n)

f(2n)-f(n)=log2n-logn

lo(2*n)=lg2+lgn-lgn

f(2n)-f(n)=lg2+lgn-lgn

f(2n)-f(n)=log2

2.f(n)=lglgn

F(2n)=lglg2n

f(2n)-f(n)=lglg2n-lglgn

lg2n=lg2+lgn

lg(lg2+lgn)-lglgn

3.f(n)=100n

f(2n)=100(2n)

f(2n)/f(n)=200n/100n

f(2n)/f(n)=2

the time will double

4.f(n)=nlgn

f(2n)=2nlg2n

f(2n)-f(n)=2nlg2n-nlgn

f(2n)-f(n)=2n(lg2+lgn)-nlgn

2nLg2+2nlgn-nlgn

2nlg2+nlgn

5.we shall look for the ratio

f(n)=n^2

f(2n)=2n^2

f(2n)/(n)=2n^2/n^2

f(2n)/(n)=4n^2/n^2

f(2n)/(n)=4

the time will be times 4 the initial tiote tat ratio are used because it will be easier to calculate and compare

6.n^3

f(n)=n^3

f(2n)=(2n)^3

f(2n)/f(n)=(2n)^3/n^3

f(2n)/f(n)=8

the ratio will be times 8 the initial

7.2n

f(n)=2n

f(2n)=2(2n)

f(2n)/f(n)=2(2n)/2n

f(2n)/f(n)=2
