Answer:

y = 6/5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we have to find the equation of the line with the given information.

We know that the the slope is 6/5 and it passes through the point (5, 4)

Lets represent this problem in slope intercept form with just the slope, since we need to find the "y-intercept".

y = 6/5x + b

To find the y-intercept, plug the values of the coordinate into the equation and solve for b:

4 = 6/5(5) + b

Solve for b:

4 = 6/5(5) + b

4 = 30/5 + b

4 = 6 + b

Subtract 6 from both sides to get "b" by itself.

-2 = b

This means that the y-intercept would be -2

When we put in into our slope intercept equation, it should look like this:

y = 6/5x - 2

y = 6/5x - 2 would be the equation of the line

You need a ladder that will reach up to 25 foot tall house when placed 10 feet away from the house. How tall does the ladder nee

lions [1.4K]

This creates a right triangle. One leg of the triangle is 25 feet and the other is 10 feet. To find the length of the ladder, we must use Pythagorean theorem.

a = 25

b = 10

c = ?

(25)^2 + (10)^2 = c^2. Square all the terms to the left of the equation and add them together.

725 = c^2. Take the square root of each side.

c = 26.93 feet.

The ladder needs to be 26.93 feet tall.

Find the absolute minimum and absolute maximum values of f on the given interval. f(t) = 3 (*sqaure root sign*) t (20 − t), [0,

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

maximum: 15∛5 ≈ 25.6496392002
minimum: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum will be found at the ends of the interval, where f(t) = 0.

The maximum is found in the middle of the interval, where f'(t) = 0.

$f(t)=\sqrt[3]{t}(20-t)\\\\f'(t)=\dfrac{20-t}{3\sqrt[3]{t^2}}-\sqrt[3]{t}=\sqrt[3]{t}\left(\dfrac{4(5-t)}{3t}\right)$

This derivative is zero when the numerator is zero, at t=5. The function is a maximum at that point. The value there is ...

f(5) = (∛5)(20-5) = 15∛5

The absolute maximum on the interval is 15∛5 at t=5.
