Answer:

Hence the length of the altitude is:

\sqrt{6.9}=3\sqrt{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Right Triangle Altitude Theorem Part a:</em></u> The measure of the altitude drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right triangle to its hypotenuse is the geometric mean between the measures of the two segments of the hypotenuse.

In terms of our triangle i.e. figure attached to the answer, this theorem simply states :

AD=\sqrt{CD.DB}

Here in our question we are given:

CD=6 and DB=9

Hence the length of the altitude is:

\sqrt{6.9}=3\sqrt{6}

V = rw

where; v = velocity , r = radius , w = angular speed

you're given the diameter = 0.5 miles so the radius = 0.25 miles

180 = (0.25)w
180/0.25 = w
720 radians per hour = w

2pi radians in 1 revolution

720 rad/hr * 1 rev / 2pi rad = 720/2pi rev/hr
= 114.6 rev/hr

Which of the following is the solution to | x | +5&lt; 1?
marissa [1.9K]

C. No Solution

<u>Explanation</u>

<u></u>

The above equation has no solution as the value of x is always mod x which means the value is always positive. Hence to make the equation true, we need value of mod x less than -4 which is not possible. Hence this equation as no solution.

|x| + 5< 1\\|x| + 5 -1 < 0\\|x| +4 < 0\\|x| < -4

Since, |x| can never be < -4 because value of |x| is always greater than or equal to, Hence this equation has no solution.
