Step-by-step explanation:
A flagpole is 53 feet tall. Most of the time, this will be a vertical side of the triangle.
The flagpole and the ground are perpendicular to each other so they should form the legs of the triangles, this the triangle will be a right angle.
The rope will be the hypotenuse, the side opposite of the right angle.
Answer:
12 and 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the even integers be x and x+2
three times the larger number is expressed as 3(x+2)
30 more than the smaller one is x + 30
Equating both expressions
3(x+2) = x +30
Find x
3x+6 = x+30
3x-x = 30-6
2x = 24
x = 12
The second integer is 12+2 = 14
Hence the required integers are 12 and 14
To simplify this all you need to do is distribute the 4x across each term in the parenthesis
Y = -7x - 2
Use the two points given to find the slope (m)
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = ( 12-5 ) / (-2 - (-1))
m = -7
Now we have y = -7x + b where 'b' is our y-intercept. We can solve for 'b' by choosing one of the (x,y) coordinate points and plugging them in.
Let's choose the point (-1,5). Plug -1 in for 'x' and 5 in for 'y' and solve for 'b'.
y = -7x + b
5 = -7(-1) + b
b = -2
Final eqn: y = -7x - 2
what would be the question for this!!
