A 12 feet ramp is used to load stuff into the truck which is at a height of 3.5 feet from ground.
The ramp forms a Right triangle with ground and height of truck.
In the Right triangle, hypotenuse is 12 feet and height is 3.5 feet. We need to find horizontal base of right triangle.
We can use Pythagorean theorem that is given by :-
(Hypotenuse)² = (Base)² + (Height)²
(12)² = (Base)² + (3.5)²
144 = (Base)² + 12.25
(Base)² = 144 - 12.25
(Base)² = 131.75
(Base) = √131.75

So, horizontal distance is 11.48 feet.
The answer to number one is A. the number two answer is C.

It just is
Answer:
D. x = 1.7 or x = 5.7
Step-by-step explanation:
The left side of the equation is graphed in blue. The right side of the equation is graphed in red.
The solution of the equation is the x (and y) that make both equations true.
On the graph these solutions are the points where the two graphs intersect.
Those two points have x values that are positive (and y's that are negative) Only answer D. has x-values that correspond to the x-values of the points of intersection.
