Answer:
5x -7y = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
A sketch can convince you that BC is a transversal perpendicular to parallel lines AB and CD. The question asks for an equation for CD, so we just need to write the equation of a line through D that is parallel to AB.
One way to do this is to equate the slopes of the parallel lines:
∆y/∆x for AB = ∆y/∆x for CD
(y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) = (y -2)/(x -7) . . . . . . where (x1, y1) = A; (x2, y2) = B; (7, 2) = D
(4 -(-1))/(1 -(-6)) = (y -2)/(x -7)
5(x -7) = 7(y -2) . . . . . . . . . . . . . cross multiply
5x -7y = 21 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 35 -7y, simplify

Note that the graph shows the line CD is named "b", and its equation is shown at upper left. Multiplying that equation by -1 gives the one shown here.
Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
17+5=22
The 5 is the number of years that the interest rate is fixed (at the initial amount set when you sign the mortgage contract)
The 1 represents the idea that the interest rate will change every year after the initial 5 years are up.
Answer:
rate of change = -32 feet/second
Step-by-step explanation:
h(t) = 64 – 16t2
t = time (seconds)
Look at the start of time where t = 0
h(t) = 64 - 16 * (0) * 2 = 64 feet
Then look at the specified time where t = 1.25 seconds
h(t) = 64 - 16 * (1.25sec) * 2 = 24 feet
rate of change = rate of change y / rate of change x
x = time, y = height
rate of change = (24 - 64) / (1.25 - 0) = -32 feet/second
Answer:
The original height of the tree is 18 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see attached photo for explanation.
From the diagram, we shall determine the value of 'x'. This can be obtained by using the pythagoras theory as follow:
x² = 5² + 12²
x² = 25 + 144
x² = 169
Take the square root of both side
x = √169
x = 13 m
Finally, we shall determine the original height of the tree. This can be obtained as follow.
From the question given above, the tree was broken from a height of 5 m from the ground which form a right angle triangle with x being the Hypothenus as illustrated in the diagram.
Thus, the original height of the will be the sum of 5 and x i.e
Height = 5 + x
x = 13 m
Height = 5 + 13
Height = 18 m
Therefore, the original height of the tree is 18 m.
