Answer: change over time
Explanation: it is decreasing in height therefore is decreasing in altitude
Answer:
The height of the lamp post is 15 feet ⇒ 1st answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The ladder , the lamp post and the ground formed a right triangle, the length of the ladder is its hypotenuse (l), the height of the lamp post (h) and the horizontal distance on the ground between the base of the ladder and the base of the lamp post (d) are the legs of the triangle
By using Pythagoras Theorem ⇒ <em>the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two legs</em>
∵ l² = h² + d²
∵ The length of the ladder is 25 feet
∴ l = 25
∵ The ladder is placed 20 feet from the lamp post
- That means the distance between the base of the ladder and
the base of the lamp post on the ground
∴ d = 20
- Substitute the values of l and d in the Pythagoras formula
∵ (25)² = h² + (20)²
∴ 625 = h² + 400
- Subtract 400 from both sides
∴ 225 = h²
- Take √ for both sides
∴ 15 = h
∴ The height of the lamp post is 15 feet
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope subtract the second y-coordinate from the first y-coordinate and divide it by the result of the second x-coordinate from the first.
-2 - -1 = -1
-12 - -8= -3
-1/-3 = 1/3
SOLUTION
The object would hit the ground at the root of the equation, that is where h = 0
So we have

Solving the quadratic equation, we have

So we ignore -1 as time cannot be negative.
Hence the object hit the ground in 3 seconds
Answer:
Joseph tenía 240 soles
Step-by-step explanation:
Tenemos lo siguiente
Cantidad total = Cantidad gastada + Cantidad restante.
Sabemos que Cantidad gastada = 3/5 Cantidad restante y que Cantidad restante = Cantidad gastada + 60.
Sea x la cantidad gastada e y la cantidad restante. Tenemos las ecuaciones

Reemplazando la segunda en la primera, tenemos que
(aquí simplemente distribuímos la multiplicación.
Restando 3/5 x a ambos lados, tenemos que

Multiplicando por 5 y dividiendo por dos ambos lados, tenemos que

Es decir, Joseph gastó 90 soles. Entonces y = 90+60 = 150 soles.
Es decir, en total, Joseph tenía 150+90= 240 soles.
