ANSWER
D. 25 feet
EXPLANATION
The height of the wall,h, the taut wire and the distance from the base of the pole to the point on the ground, formed a right triangle.
According to the Pythagoras Theorem, the sum of the length of the squares of the two shorter legs equals the square of the hypotenuse.
Let the hypotenuse ( the length of the ) taught wire be,l.
Then





Answer:
AD = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the two triangles are similar by the SSS (side side side) postulate, the triangles share the same ratios when it comes to their sides.
We know the values for lines DB, EB and CB, therefore we can solve for AB, and subtract DB to find AD
We can solve the problem by solving for x:

Cross multiply.

Simplify.

Subtract the value of DB to find AD.


Answer:
perimeter is 12x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter is the sum of all sides
3(x+2) + 2x+11 + 7x-23
distribute the 3 in the first term, then combine 'like terms'
3x+6 + 2x+11 + 7x-23
3x+2x+7x + 6+11+(-23)
12x-6
Answer:
Any number smaller than 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You would graph this by wrighting a solid, filled in circle with an arrow point toward the negative numbers, because those numbers are smaller than 2
No because they are straight lines, they cannot curve to intersect more than once, think of a capital X.
