Answer:

32.98 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

What you have right there is a triangle.

The base of the triangle is given (14 ft)

The angle from the ladder makes while leaning on the house is 67 degrees.

This is a simple trigonometry problem

You want to find the length of the ladder and you don't have the hypotenuse

So you can use the function tan to find it.

tan(Ф) = opposite/adjacent

You are looking for the opposite side length

So you do tan(Ф) * adjacent = opposite

tan(67) * 14 = 32.98 ft

To which graph does the point (−1, 3) belong? y ≥ 2x + 6 y ≥ 3x − 1 y ≥ −x + 3 y ≥ −2x + 5
Anna35 [415]
Well first find the slope of the point
y=mx+b  y=-1x+3
slope = -1
then put the problem in point slope form y - y1 = m (x-x1)
y + 3 = -1 (x+1) then solve for y=mx+b again
so y> 2x + 6 is the answer

Which phrase best describes the translation from the graph y = (x + 2)2 to the graph of y = x2 + 3?
Mashutka [201]

1. Consider the transformation that maps the graph of the function y=(x+2)^2 into the graph of the function y=x^2. This transmormation has a rule:

(x,y)→(x+2,y)

that is translation 2 units to the right.

2. Consider the transformation that maps the graph of the function y=x^2 into the graph of the function y=x^2+3. This transformation has a rule:

(x,y)→(x,y+3)

that is translation 3 units up.

Answer: correct choice is C.

What fraction of the dunk tanks require at least 500 gallons of water? Write the fraction in simplest form.
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information observed from the attached box and whisker plot, the Fraction of dunk tanks which requires atleast 500 gallons of water. This fractional value will be the property of plot in the position marked as 500 on the plot. The point which refers to 500 gallons on the plot is the ticked point in between the box. This point represents the median value in a box and whisker plot.

The median value represents the 50th percentile value which relates to half of the distribution. This means that fraction of dunk which requires atleast 500 gallons is : (50/100) = 1/2
