Answer:

13 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation forms a right triangle, where the ladder is the hypotenuse, the distance away from the building is the short leg, and the height to the side of the building is the long leg.

Use the pythagorean theorem, and solve for c, the hypotenuse:

a² + b² = c²

5² + 12² = c²

25 + 144 = c²

169 = c²

13 = c

So, the ladder is 13 feet long

The answer is 13 feet long. Like the person above me said, you use pythagorean theorem or a^2+b^2=c^2, to find the answer.

Formulate the situation as a system of inequalities. (Let x represent the number of goats the farmer can raise and y represent t
Firdavs [7]

Answer: He can raise up to 40 goats and 100 llamas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write system of equations with the information given:

The space each goat needs (4) multiplied by the number of goats (x); plus The space each llama needs (10) multiplied by the number of llamas must be less or equal to the acre land available (800)

4x +10y ≤ 800 (acres)

The amount of veterinary care (in $) each  goat needs (110) multiplied by the number of goats (x); plus The  amount of veterinary care   each llama needs (88) multiplied by the number of llamas (y)must be less or equal to the Rancher's budget.(14520)

110x +88y ≤ 14,520 (cost)

Multiplying the first equation by 27.5, and subtracting the second equation to the first one:

110x + 275y ≤22,000

-

110x +88y ≤ 14,520

____________

187y ≤ 7480

y ≤ 7480/187

y ≤ 40

Replacing y in the first equation

4x +10(40) ≤ 800

4x +400 ≤ 800

4x ≤ 800-400

4x ≤ 400

x ≤ 400/4

x ≤ 100

Solve for C.<br> 5/4= -4c + 1/4
dybincka [34]
5/4= -4c + 1/4

Inverse operation

\frac{5}{4} = -4c + \frac{1}{4}

- 1/4             -1/4

5/4 - 1/4 = 4/4

\frac{4}{4} = -4c
-4c/-4  = 4/4 ÷ -4/1 

4/4 *- 1/4 = c
-4/8 = c
c = -1/2

Answer:  c = - \frac{1}{2}

If the function f (x) has a domain of (a,b] and a range of [c,d), then what is the domain and range of g (x) = m × f (x) + n?
xz_007 [3.2K]
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3>

Domain = (a,b]

Range = [mc + n,md + n)

==============================================

Explanation:

The domain stays the same because we still have to go through f(x) as our first hurdle in order to get g(x).

Think of it like having 2 doors. The first door is f(x) and the second is g(x). The fact g(x) is dependent on f(x) means that whatever input restrictions are on f, also apply on g as well. So going back to the "2 doors" example, we could have a problem like trying to move a piece of furniture through them and we'd have to be concerned about the f(x) door.

-------------------

The range will be different however. The smallest value in the range of f(x) is y = c as it is the left endpoint. So the smallest f(x) can be is c. This means the smallest g(x) can be is...

g(x) = m*f(x) + n

g(x) = m*c + n

All we're doing is replacing f with c.

So that means mc+n is the starting point of the range for g(x).

The ending point of the range is md+n for similar reasons. Instead of 'c', we're dealing with 'd' this time. The curved parenthesis says we don't actually include this value in the range. A square bracket means include that value.
