A guy wire (a tensioned cable designed to add stability to a free-standing structure) is attached to a telephone pole whose heig
ht is 25 ft. If the wire is attached to the ground at a point 15 ft away from the base of the pole, what is the slope of the wire?
1 answer:
Answer:
⁵/₃
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are at the foot of the guy wire, the wire is going <em>up</em>.
Slope = Δy/Δx = 25/15 = ⁵/₃
If you are at the top of the pole, the wire is going <em>down</em>.
Slope = Δy/Δx = -25/15 = -⁵/₃

Answer:
4/5 would be the answer....
Take 250 times 9 because each unit represent 250. so 9 units of 250 is 2250
The answer would be y=-11x-48
$16.75
because $134 divided by 8 hours = $16.75 per hour
Answer:
1: $11
2: $43.19
3: $128.57
Step-by-step explanation:
10 • 1.10 = 11
39.99 • 1.08 = 43.19
43.19 • 3 = 128.57
