Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of (the foot of the ladder to the person) : (the person's height) is equal to (the wall to the foot of the ladder) : (the height of the wall) because the triangles are similar. So, if you solve the problem you will get:

(x= the height of the wall)

6:6 = 6+9:x

6:6 = 15:x

1:1=15:x

x=15

The height of the wall is 15 feet.

Can someone complete the square

pshichka [43]

To do these, start by looking at the "b" value -6.
divide it by 2

-6/2 = -3

now square this number

(-3)^2 = 9

this is what you need for the "c" value

there is only a 5 for the c value so add 4 to both sides of the equation. ( +4 = +4)

y +4 = x^2 -6x +5 +4
y +4 = x^2 -6x +9
y +4 = (x -3)^2
y = (x -3)^2 - 4

vertex ( 3, -4) upwards facing like a bowl, because the "a" value is positive. So the vertex is the minimum, lowest point on the graph.

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and has an x-intercept of -3?

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the perpendicular line is,

y = mx + b

where m = slope of the line

b = y-intercept

From the graph, slope of the line passing through (0, -1) and (3, 1),

m' = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

m' = $\frac{1+1}{3-0}$

m' = $\frac{2}{3}$

To get the slope (m) of this line we will use the property of perpendicular lines,

m × m' = (-1)

m × $\frac{2}{3}$ = -1

m = $-\frac{3}{2}$

Equation of the perpendicular line will be,

$y=-\frac{3}{2}x+b$

x-intercept of the line is (-3) therefore, point on the line is (-3, 0)

0 = $-\frac{3}{2}(-3)+b$

b = $-\frac{9}{2}=-4.5$

Equation of the line will be,

$y=-\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}$

A satellite is composed of 30 modular units, each of which is equipped with a set of sensors, some of which have been upgraded.

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The satellite has 30 modular units.

There are equal numbers of non-upgraded sensors in each unit.

Let us assume that on the entire satellite there are x numbers of upgraded sensors.

Then as per the given condition, there are $\frac{x}{5}$ number of non-upgraded sensors in one unit.

Therefore, the number of non-upgraded sensors on the entire satellite is $\frac{30x}{5}$ =6x

Hence, total number of sensors in the satellite is (x+ 6x) =7x

Therefore, the required fraction of the upgraded sensors is $\frac{x}{7x} =\frac{1}{7}$ . (Answer)

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Newtons 2nd law of motion

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton’s second law of motion is closely related to Newton’s first law of motion. It mathematically states the cause and effect relationship between force and changes in motion. Newton’s second law of motion is more quantitative and is used extensively to calculate what happens in situations involving a force. Before we can write down Newton’s second law as a simple equation giving the exact relationship of force, mass, and acceleration, we need to sharpen some ideas that have already been mentioned.
