Answer: 9.19 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.

Sin α = opposite side / hypotenuse

Where α is the angle of elevation of the ladder to the ground, the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle (in this case is the length of the ladder), and the opposite side (x) is the height of the top of the ladder above the ground.

Replacing with the values given:

Sin 45 = x/ 13

Solving for x

sin45 (13) =x

x= 9.19 ft

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

What is the equation of this graphed line?

barxatty [35]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The two points on the line are:

$(x_1,y_1)=(-6,-3)\\(x_2,y_2)=(6,-7)$

Now, for a line with two points on it, the slope of the line is given as:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

For the points $(x_1,y_1)=(-6,-3)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)=(6,-7)$ , slope is:

$m=\frac{-7-(-3)}{6-(-6)}\\m=\frac{-7+3}{6+6}\\m=\frac{-4}{12}=-\frac{1}{3}$

Now, for a line with slope 'm' and a point $(x_1,y_1)$ on it is given as:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Plug in all the values and determine the equation of the line. This gives,

$y-(-3)=-\frac{1}{3}(x-(-6))\\\\y+3=-\frac{1}{3}(x+6)\\\\y+3=-\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{1}{3}\times 6\\\\y+3=-\frac{1}{3}x-2\\\\y=-\frac{1}{3}x-2-3\\\\y=-\frac{1}{3}x-5$

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x-5$

How many lines of symmetry does a circle have? What point do all lines of symmetry for a given circle have in common?

Alina [70]

A circle has infinit lines of symmetry. They pass through the centre of the circle and are the circle's diameter. Hope this helps! (:

What is the missing step in this proof

bagirrra123 [75]

Ok the parralelogram is 25 units and I think the angle of BCD would be 53. I got this by subtracting 127 from 180 since that should give you the whole square. and I got teh units by adding the lines BC and AB... Hope this helped

Which exponential function grows at a faster rate than the quadratic function for zero is less than X is less than three

Ann [662]

Answer:

43.35 years

why?

From the above question, we are to find Time t for compound interest

The formula is given as :

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

A = $2500

P = Principal = $200

R = 6%

n = Compounding frequency = 1

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 6/100

r = 0.06 per year,

Then, solve the equation for t

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

t = ln(2,500.00/200.00) / ( 1 × [ln(1 + 0.06/1)] )

t = ln(2,500.00/200.00) / ( 1 × [ln(1 + 0.06)] )

t = 43.346 years

A dieter believes that the average number of calories in a homemade peanut better cookie is more than the average number of calo

zalisa [80]

The confidence interval formula is computed by:

Xbar ± Z s/ sqrt (n)

Where:

Xbar is the mean

Z is the z value

S is the standard deviation

N is the number of samples

So our given are:

90% confidence interval with a z value of 1.645

Sample size 40, 45

Mean 180, 179

Standard deviation 2, 4

So plugging that information in the data will give us a confidence interval:

For 1:

Xbar ± Z s/ sqrt (n)

= 180 ± 1.645 (2 / sqrt (40))

= 180 ± 1.645 (0.316227766)

= 180 ± 0.520194675

= 179.48, 180.52

For 2:

Xbar ± Z s/ sqrt (n)

= 179 ± 1.645 (4 / sqrt (45))

therefore, the answer is letter b
