A small tree is beginning to lean. The owner decides to set up a tension wire to straighten the tree’s growth. The owner chooses

a wire which is 5 m in length to straighten the tree. The tree is 4 m high. How far must the owner secure the bottom of the wire from the base of the tree (assuming he attaches the tension wire to the top of the tree)?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle trig problem. The height of the tree is the height of the triangle, and the length of the wire is the hypotenuse of the triangle. Using Pythagorean's Theorem, we can find the length of the base, which is how far he must secure the bottom of the wire from the base of the tree.

5^2=4^2+x^2 and

25=16+x^2 and

9=x^2 so

x = 3 m

Find the value of p for which 81p ÷ 9p = 94 ? ​
Radda [10]

Answer:

p = 10.44

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no solution. If the question was 81p / 9 = 94, it could be done.

The way it is written the ps cancel out and you get 9 = 94 which is impossible.

But let's assume you meant

81p / 9 = 94

Then you get 9p = 94      Divide both sides by 9

81p/9 = 94              

9p = 94                              Divide both sides by 9

9p/9 = 94/9

p = 10.44

What is the rate of change and initial value for the linear relation that includes the points shown in the table?
defon

The initial value: 25, rate of change: -5 ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

The table:

→  x  :    1    :    3    :    5    :    7

→  y  :    20 :    10  :    0    :    -10

The linear relation between x and y is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the rate of change
  • b is the initial value

Let us use the table to find m and b

∵ m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} , where (x_{1},y_{1})

   and (x_{2},y_{2}) are any two ordered pairs in the table

∵ (x_{1},y_{1}) = (1 , 20)

∵ (x_{2},y_{2}) = (3 , 10)

∴ m=\frac{10-20}{3-1}=\frac{-10}{2}=-5

∵ m is the rate of change

∴ The rate of change is -5

Substitute the value of m in the form of the linear relation

∴ y = -5 x + b

To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates of any points in the table, let us chose point (5 , 0)

∵ x = 5 and y = 0

∴ 0 = -5(5) + b

∴ 0 = -25 + b

- Add 25 to both sides

∴ 25 = b

∵ b represents the initial value

∴ The initial value is 25

The initial value: 25, rate of change: -5
