Answer:

The length of the rope = 8.94 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The flagpole is 8 meters high

∵ The hook is 4 meters from its base and the hook is in the ground

∵ The flagpole and the ground ⊥ to each other

By using Pythagoras theorem:

∴ The length of the rope = √(8² + 4²) = 5√5 = 8.94 meters

Suppose $600 is compounded yearly for 20 years. If no other deposits are made, what rate is needed for the balance to triple in
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

5.65%

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal=$600

Time=20 years

FV=600*3=$1800

n=1

r=?

r= n[(A/P)^1/nt - 1]

=1{(1800/600)^ 1/1*20 - 1}

={(3)^1/20-1}

=3^0.05-1

=1.0565-1

=0.0565

rate=0.0565*100

=5.65% to the nearest hundredth percent

So, x - 27 = 0

x = 27.

Hence, Trevor had $27 before his purchase.

The rate of change is: <br> -4<br> -1<br> 1<br> 4
Korvikt [17]

the slope goes by several names

• average rate of change

• rate of change

• deltaY over deltaX

• Δy over Δx

• rise over run

• gradient

• constant of proportionality

however, is the same cat wearing different costumes.

to get the slope of a straight line we only need two points off of it, hmmm let's use from the table (-1 , 13) and (2 , 1)

(\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{13})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{1}-\stackrel{y1}{13}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2}-\underset{x_1}{(-1)}}}\implies \cfrac{-12}{2+1}\implies \cfrac{-12}{3}\implies -4

(b) Express the number 17<br> (i) in base 2<br> (ii) in base 5
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

IF 17 is in base 10

THEN

17₁₀ = 1 x 10¹ + 7 x 10⁰

10001₂ = 1 x 2⁴ + 0 x 2³ + 0 x 2² + 0 x 2¹ + 1 x 2⁰

32₅ = 3 x 5¹ + 2 x 5⁰
