Answer:

<h3>6 feet</h3>

Step-by-step explanation

Using the pythagoras theorem;

Given

The length of the flag pole = 8 feet = opposite side

Length of the rope = 10 feet = hypotenuse

To determine how far out on the ground he need to secure the rope from the flagpole so that the rope is tight, we need to look for the adjacent. Using the equation

hyp² = opp² + adj²

10² = 8² + adj²

adj² = 100-64

adj² = 36

adj = √36

adj = 6feet

Hence the rope should be placed 6feet out of the ground

What are the steps on finding common denominators. PLEASE HELP
Dmitrij [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a common denominator, you have to find a number that "works" with every other number.

for example, say you have

2/4 and 8/12

First you need to find the common factor between 4 and 12, so list all your fours

4, 8, 12, 16, 20

Now list all your twelves

12, 24, 36, 48, 60

to find the common factor you look at both your list of numbers and find one that's the same, sometimes it takes a long list of numbers to find the common factor, but you will run into one.

So by looking at our list we see that 4 and 12 share the common factor of 12. but since 8/12 already has a denominator of 12, we are going to leave it alone.

now think about what you would multiply 4 by, to get to 12. The answer is

4 x 3 = 12

to make the numerator correct, you multiply it by the same number you did 4, so since your faction is 2/4 you should do 2 x 3 = 6

now you have your answer,

2/4 and 8/12 turns into

6/12 and 8/12

and that's how you find it, let me know if you have questions :)

Which graph represents the solution<br><br>8 - 3x ≥ -4​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

3rd option

Step-by-step explanation:

8 - 3x ≥ - 4 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

- 3x ≥ - 12

divide both sides by - 3 , reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.

x ≤ 4

since ≤ the circle on number line is solid ( not open )

since less than 4 then arrow points left away from 4

the solution is shown on the third graph
