Given that the garden is rectangular and a line of roses form the diagonal 18.4 m long, we required to calculate the length of the perpendicular side.
Here we shall use the Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
where c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.
from the information given:
c=18.4 m
a=13 m
plugging this into our expression we get:
18.4²=13²+b²
next we solve for the value of b
b²=18.4²-13²
b²=338.56-169
b²=169.56
b=√169.56
b=13.0215
hence the length to the nearest tenth of a meter will be approximately 13.0 m

Triangle ABC is located at A (−2, 2), B (−2, 4), and C (0, 0). The triangle is then transformed using the rule (x+3, y−2) to for
Dominik [7]

Answer:

A'(1, 0 ), B'(1, 2 ), C'(3, - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

using the rule, add 3 to the x-coordinate and subtract 2 from the y- coordinate of the original points.

A' = (- 2 + 3, 2 - 2 ) = A'(1, 0 )

B' = (- 2 + 3, 4 - 2 ) = B'(1, 2 )

C' = (0 + 3, 0 - 2 ) = C'(3, - 2 )

HURRY!!! Given the function find f(-1), f(0), f(2)
Zolol [24]

Answer:

f(-1) = -10

f(0) = -6

f(2) = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

As the function says, when x is below 0, the part that we have to use is 7x-3, and when is equal or greater we use 7x-6.

We do so and just replace de values of x in each equation.

f(-1)=7(-1)-3=-10\\f(0)=7(0)-6=-6\\f(2)=7(2)-6=8\\

If you have 18 students and all are paired up at least once how many projects in the year
KatRina [158]
It would be 9 because you get half the number of projects because 18 students are partners and if you divide that you would have 9 groups of 2 and if you multiply that by the number of projects you would get the number of projects (ex:18 dividend by 2 it's 9 then if there is three projects assigned you multiply 9 by 3 to get 27 projects got it?
