Answer:

  34.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. Where a, b, c are the sides of a right triangle with c as the hypotenuse, it tells you ...

  a² + b² = c²

  a = √(c² -b²)

  base-to-string = √(39² -18²) = √1197 ≈ 34.598

The distance from the base of the pole to the end of the string is about 34.6 feet.

Answer:

f(x) = 3x + 26; 26 ≤ y ≤ 35

Step-by-step explanation:

This makes a linear equation.

y=mx+b

where m is the amount they want to increase each week

and b is the initial value i.e 26 clients.

Now substitute the values in the equation.

Let x=0

y=3(0)+26

y = 26

Now let x= 3

y=mx+b

y=3(3)+26

y=9+26

y=35

Thus the correct option is B.

f(x) = 3x + 26; 26 ≤ y ≤ 35 .....
