Answer: The base is 2 units and the height is 6 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can plot the points  (-4, 7), (-2, 7), (-2, 1), and (-4, 1) and obtain the rectangle shown in the figure attached.

As you can see in the figure, the distance between the points of the base is:

d=\sqrt{(-2-(-4))^2+(1-1)^2}\\d=2

Then the lenght of the base is 2 units

The distance between the points of the height is:

 d=\sqrt{(-2-(-2))^2+(1-7)^2}\\d=6

Then the height is 6 units

ANSWER

The height is 6 units.

The base is 2 units.

EXPLANATION

The given rectangle has vertices (–4, 7), (–2, 7), (–2, 1), and (–4, 1).

To find the height of the rectangle, we use the points (-2,7) and (-2,1) or

(-4,7) and (-4,1) because they form the vertical side of the rectangle.

The height is

|7-1|=6 units

To find the base, use the points (-2,7) and (-4,7) or (-2,1) and (-4,1).

The base is

|-2--4|=2 units

If cos=3/5, then tan=
Juliette [100K]
This is a 3-4-5 triangle.

Remember, 
SOH-CAH-TOA

S(ine) =  O(pposite)/H(ypotenuse)
C(osine) = A(djacent)/H(ypotenuse)
T(angent) = O(pposite)/A(djacent)

In Cosine, the adjacent = 3, and the Hypotenuse = 5

Hypotenuse is the longest side. 

3,4,5 is the triangle that fits inside, therefore, the Opposite is 4, and Adjacent is 3

T(angent) = O(pposite)/A(djacent)

Plug in the numbers

T = 4/3

tan = 4/3 is your answer

hope this helps

If f(x) = -x-2, what is f¹(x)?
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

  1. f¯¹(x) =9x+18, for the pictorial(image) question
  2. what is the send question is it asking derivative or inverse
  3. If it is inverse f¯¹(x)=-x-2 as it is
  4. Or if it is derivative f'(x)=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>For the image question f(x)=1/9x-2,f¯¹(x)=?</h2>
  • f(x)=1/9x-2............given
  • y=1/9x-2................swapping f(x) by y to Easily write
  • x=1/9y-2................interchanging x and y
  • 1/9y-2=x................changeling side of equation
  • 9(1/9y-2)=(x)9.......multiplying both sides by 9 to override the fraction on the right side
  • y-18=9x
  • y=9x-18.................Return to where it were
  • <em><u>f¯¹(x)=9x+18</u></em>..........swap back f¯¹(x) in the y

<h2>For the question f(x)=-x-2,f¯¹(x)=?</h2>
  • following the ☝️ arrangement
  • y=-x-2
  • x=-y-2
  • -y-2=x
  • -y=x+2
  • y=-x-2
  • f¯¹(x)=-x-2

Shirley is going to have her home painted. Tim"s painting charges $250 plus $14 per hour. Colorful paints charges $22 per hour.
Advocard [28]

It would take greater than 31.25 hours for Tim's price to be better. So in terms of whole hours it would take at least 32 hours of work for Tim's price to be better.
