Cables are forming 3 right angled triangles the pole being the shared height of them;
(height) b= 12yd
(base) a= 9yd
(hypotenuse) c= ?
Need to find the long side (hypotenuse);
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + 9^2 = 225
Take square root of 225 = 15
Then you have;
1x 12yd = 12
3x 9 yd = 27
3x 15yd = 45
Add them up = 84yd of cable needed
W = 6
b = 4
You have a 3/5 chance every time to pull a white marble.
35 x 0.6 (6/10) = 21.
Your answer is D.)
Y intercept is (0,-7) and x interpret is (-2,0)
