Answer:

height = 63  m

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the monument is a triangle. The triangle is a right angle triangle. The triangular monument is sitting on a rectangular pedestal that is 7 m high and 16 m long.  The longest side of the triangular monument is 65 m . The longest side of a right angle triangle is usually the hypotenuse. The adjacent side of the triangle which is the base of the triangle sitting on the rectangular pedestal is 16 m long.

Since the triangle  formed is a right angle triangle, the height of the triangular monument can be gotten using Pythagoras's theorem.

c² = a² + b²

where

c is the hypotenuse side while side a and b is the other sides of the right angle triangle.

65² - 16² = height²

height² = 4225  - 256

height² = 3969

square root both sides

height = √3969

height = 63  m

3x+4y = 375
6x+ 4y= 600
-------------------
6x-3x  = 600 - 375

3x=225
x=225:3
x=75 cents

3*x+4y= 375
3*75+4y=375
225 +4y = 375
4y=375-225
4y=150
y=150:4
y=37,5 cents

the price is 75+37,5=112,5 cents for one bag of potato chips and one candy bar

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function, switch the variables and solve for y.

The inverse of f(n)=-(n+1)^3:

y=-(n+1)^3

n=-(y+1)^3

\sqrt[3]{n} =-(y+1)

\sqrt[3]{n} =-y-1

\sqrt[3]{n} +1=-y-(\sqrt[3]{n} +1)=y

-\sqrt[3]{n} -1=y

If any one could help me and explain how they would do this it would make my entire day it has to be a fraction please I can not
Mrrafil [7]
So slope intercept form is y=mx+b m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The equation of this line would be y=1/4x+2 because the rise over run (slope) is 2/8 or 1/4 and the line intercepts the y axis at 2.

If f(x)=x-1/3 and g(x)=3x+1, what is (f*g)(x) 3x+1 x-3
crimeas [40]
This is a composite.  Another way to write them is f(g(x)).  Take the function g(x) and stick it in for x in f(x).  Like this: f(g(x))= \frac{(3x+1)-1}{3}.  But we aren't done cuz there's some simplifying there to do.  f(g(x))= \frac{3x}{3} and canceling out the 3's we get just a simple x as our answer.  The choice is the last one above as your answer.
