Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

if it was any shorter the triangle would turn into a line

9-5=4 but there would be no area so you add +1

Draw graphs of the following lines: The line through (-5, 2) having the slope of -3
Ivanshal [37]
What you want to do here is take this information and plug it into point-slope form. any time you're given a point and a slope, you generally want to plug it into this equation: y - y1 = m(x - x1).

in this equation, m is your slope and (x1, y1) is a given point. plug in your info--slope of -3 and (-5, 2).

y - 2 = -3(x + 5)

that is the equation of your line. however, if you want to graph it, this doesn't really make much sense to you. convert it to slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, by solving for y.

y - 2 = -3(x + 5) ... distribute -3
y - 2 = -3x - 15 ... add 2
y = -3x - 13 is your equation.

to graph this, and any other y = mx + b equation, you want to start with your y-intercept if it's present. your y intercept here is -13, which means the line you wasn't to graph crosses the y-axis at y = -13, or (0, -13). put a point there.

after you've plotted that point, you use your slope to graph more. remember that your slope is "rise over run"--you rise up/go down however many units, you run left/right however many units. if your slope is -3, you want to go down 3 units, then go to the right 1 unit. remember that whole numbers have a 1 beneath them as a fraction. -3/1 is your rise over 1.

A 100 foot ladder is leaning against a tree so that the top of the ladder is 96 feet above the ground. How far is the base of th
ahrayia [7]

Answer:The base of the ladder from the tree is 28ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using pythagorean theorem

Let 100ft= hypothesis is the right angle triangle

Let 96ft be the height of the ladder

Let x be the base of the right angle triangle between the base of the ladder and the tree

h^2=a^2+b^2

100^2=96^2 +b^2

10,000=9216 +b^2

b^2=10,000-9216

b=sqrt(784)

b=28ft
