<h3>Answer: Choice D.  12,600 feet</h3>

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

Explanation:

We have two similar triangles here, so we can set up the proportion below to solve for x

5200/(5200+6500) = 5600/x

5200/11700 = 5600/x

5200x = 11700*5600 .... cross multiply

5200x = 65,520,000

x = (65,520,000)/(5200)

x = 12,600 which shows why the answer is choice D

side note: 12,600 ft = 2.386 miles approximately

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

-9>x

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x+4)>2x-7

5x+20>2x-7

5x+20>2x-7

<u>     +7           +7</u>

5x+27>2x

        ↓

5x+27>2x

<u>-5x        -5x</u>

27>-3x

      ↓

<u>27>-3x </u>

-3     -3

= -9>x

Question 3 (Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

g(x) = x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function is given as:

f(x) = x + 8

We want to find a new function that results after shifting f(x), 2 units to the right.

Let that function be g(x), then

g(x) = f(x - 2)

We replace x by x-2 in f(x) to get:

g(x) = x - 2 + 8

When we simplify, we obtain:

g(x) = x + 6

The pendulum swings at an arc of 30 cm and its successive swings reduced to 10% of the previous swings. What is the total distan
OleMash [197]

Answer:

S_g=  33.333cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Arc of 30 cm

10% reduction after each swing

Generally sum of geometric sequence is given by the equation

    S_g=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}

Mathematically solving for total distance traveled we have

    S_g=\frac{30(1-(0.10^5)}{1-(0.10)}

    S_g=\frac{30}{0.9}

Therefore the total distance traveled  by the pendulum after 5 swings

    S_g=  33.333cm
