Answer: The side of the playground is around 10 meters long

Step-by-step explanation:

use the diagonal as the hypotenuse of a right triangle, where the sides of the square form the legs of said triangle.

Usually

$a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}$

since we know a and b are the same length (sides of a square are congruent) we would have

$a^{2} +a^{2} =c^{2} \\2a^{2} =c^{2}$

We know that c is 14 so

$2a^{2} =14^{2} \\2a^{2} =196\\a^{2} =98\\a=\sqrt{98} \\a= 9.999$

What is the range of the equation

a_sh-v [17]

The range of the equation is $y>2$

Explanation:

The given equation is $y=2(4)^{x+3}+2$

We need to determine the range of the equation.

<u>Range:</u>

The range of the function is the set of all dependent y - values for which the function is well defined.

Let us simplify the equation.

Thus, we have;

$y=2 \cdot 4^{x+3}+2$

This can be written as $y=2^{1+2(x+3)}+2$

Now, we shall determine the range.

Let us interchange the variables x and y.

Thus, we have;

$x=2^{1+2(y+3)}+2$

Solving for y, we get;

$x-2=2^{1+2(y+3)}$

Applying the log rule, if f(x) = g(x) then $\ln (f(x))=\ln (g(x))$ , then, we get;

$\ln \left(2^{1+2(y+3)}\right)=\ln (x-2)$

Simplifying, we get;

$(1+2(y+3)) \ln (2)=\ln (x-2)$

Dividing both sides by $\ln (2)$ , we have;

$2 y+7=\frac{\ln (x-2)}{\ln (2)}$

Subtracting 7 from both sides of the equation, we have;

$2 y=\frac{\ln (x-2)}{\ln (2)}-7$

Dividing both sides by 2, we get;

$y=\frac{\ln (x-2)-7 \ln (2)}{2 \ln (2)}$

Let us find the positive values for logs.

Thus, we have,;

$x-2>0$

$x>2$

The function domain is $x>2$

By combining the intervals, the range becomes $y>2$

Hence, the range of the equation is $y>2$

Answer:

✅On average Albany gets 20.967 inches rain pee year and Zachary gets 25.153 inches rain per year.

✅On average, it rains more in Zachary in a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean annual rainfall on average = total amount of rainfall for the period of years ÷ 10

✔️Mean Annual rainfall for Albany (in.):

= (22.82 + 19.83 + 28.40 + 23.35 + 30.78 + 21.34 + 11.20 + 17.04 + 18.63 + 16.28) ÷ 10

= 20.967

✔️Mean Annual rainfall for Zachary (in.):

= (26.41 + 23.54 + 30.02 + 26.35 + 34.24 + 25.74 + 18.98 + 21.26 + 23.61 + 21.38) ÷ 10

= 25.153

✅Therefore, on average Albany gets 20.967 inches rain pee year and Zachary gets 25.153 inches rain per year.

✅On average, it rains more in Zachary in a year.
