Let the height of the telephone pole be h.
\frac{h}{29}=\frac{38}{78}
h=\frac{38\times29}{78}=14.128
The height of the telephone is 14.128 m

Plug 8 for y

8 = 2x + 4

Subtract 4

4 = 2x

Divide by 2

x = 2

Plug 16 for y

16 = 2x + 4

Subtract by 4

12 = 2x

Divide by 2

x = 6

Substitute 20 for y

20 = 2x + 4

16 = 2x

x = 8

Substitute 22 for y

22 = 2x + 4

18 = 2x

9 = x

So the values are 2, 6, 8, 9

You made a deal with Ms.Williams to read 100 pages every night. You know that it takes you 32 minutes to read 16 pages. How long
AnnyKZ [126]
Put the problem into a proportion to make it easier to solve.

32        x
      =
16       100

You can use cross products to simplify this proportion.  Multiply 32 by 100, and set that number equal to 16 *x.  

Your equation should now look like this
3200=16x

You are trying to get the variable alone on one side, so you should divide both sides by 16.

If this is performed correctly, then your final answer should be 

x=200.

It will take you 200 minutes (3 hours 20 mins) to read the pages that you promised Ms. Williams

Disney World offers an incentive on their opening day.
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be to find the LCM of both 3 and 5, which is 15. The 15th customer would receive both a mug and a t-shirt. Let's call mugs "x" and shirts "o" and line them up. The bold x's and o's are the lucky winners:

x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x  x

o  o  o o o  o  o  o o  o  o o  o  o  o

The last x and the last o are both bold for the first time right there, at the 15th letter of each.

What is the solution to –2(5y – 5) – 3y ≤ –7y + 22?
Gre4nikov [31]
-2(5y - 5) - 3y < = -7y + 22
-10y + 10 - 3y < = -7y + 22
-13y + 10 < = -7y + 22
-13y + 7y < = 22 - 10
-6y < = 12
y > = -12/6
y > = -2....answer B

The recursive rule for a sequence is shown.an=an−1+9a1=21 what is the explicit rule for this sequence?
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Meaning of Explicit rule , is the general rule for a sequence.

The given sequence is defined as,

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+9a_{1}-21----(1)

Common Difference(d) of an airthmetic Sequence= N th term - (N-1) th term

                                 =a_{n}-a_{n-1}\\\\=a_{n-1}-a_{n-2}                                            

Equation 1 can be written as,

a_{n}-a_{n-1}=9 a_{1}-21\\\\ d =9a_{1}-21

General rule or explicit rule for this sequence is given as:

a_{n}=a_{1} +(n-1)d\\\\a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)(9a_{1}-21)\\\\a_{n}=a_{1}+9na_{1}-21 n-9a_{1}+21\\\\a_{n}=-8a_{1}+21+n(9a_{1}-21)
