Answer:

Part A). 25 feet

Part B). 16.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A). By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

            AC² = AB² + BC²

            AC² = (24)² + 7²

            AC² = 576 + 49

            AC = √625

                  = 25 feet

Part B). By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

            AC² = AB² + BC²

           (25)² = (19)² + x²

           625 = 361 + x²

           x² = 625 - 361

           x = √264

           x = 16.25 feet

What is the range of the function graphed on the grid? { x │ x = -2, 2, 4} {y│-3 ≤ y ≤ 4} {y│ y = -3, 0, 4} { x │-2 ≤ x ≤ 4}
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The image is sideways.

But if your graph is like on the image, then the answer is: {y│-3 ≤ y ≤ 4}

Range is the set of y values

Least function value is -3 and greatest is 4

Rephrase in contrapositive form:
miv72 [106K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

For the condition statement p \rightarrow q or equivalent "If p then q"

The rule for Contrapositive is: Negative both statements and interchange them. \sim q \rightarrow \sim p

Part (A) If you are taller than 6 ft, then it is unpleasant for you to travel in economy class.

Here p is "you are taller than 6 ft, and q is "it is unpleasant for you to travel in economy class".

It is given that Your contrapositive must not contain explicit references to negation. Assume that the negation of "unpleasant" is "pleasant".

Contrapositive: If it is pleasant for you to travel in economy class then you are not taller than 6 ft then.

Part (B) "If x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0 then xy ≥ 0" where x, y are real numbers.

Here p is "xy≥ 0, and q is "x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0"

The negative of xy≥ 0 is xy<0, x ≥ 0 is x<0 and y ≥ 0 is y<0.

Remember negative means opposite.

Contrapositive: If xy < 0 then x<0 and y<0.
