Answer:

Case 1:

AB = 30

BC = 50

Case 2:

AB = 15.9

BC = 36.7

Case 3: Not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for illustration of each case

Required

Find AB and BC

Case 1:

Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

AB^2 = AN^2 + BN^2

This gives:

AB^2 = 24^2 + 18^2

AB^2 = 576 + 324

AB^2 = 900

Take square roots of both sides

AB = \sqrt{900

AB = 30

To calculate BC, we consider ANC, where:

AC^2 = AN^2 + NC^2

40^2 = 24^2 + NC^2

1600 = 576 + NC^2

Collect like terms

NC^2 = 1600 - 576

NC^2 = 1024

Take square roots

NC = \sqrt{1024

NC = 32

So:

BC = NC + BN

BC = 32 + 18

BC = 50

Case 2:

Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

AN^2 = AB^2 + BN^2

This gives:

24^2 = AB^2 + 18^2

576 = AB^2 + 324

Collect like terms

AB^2 = 576 - 324

AB^2 = 252

Take square roots of both sides

AB = \sqrt{252

AB = 15.9

To calculate BC, we consider ABC, where:

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

40^2 = 252 + BC^2

1600 = 252 + BC^2

Collect like terms

BC^2 = 1600 - 252

BC^2 = 1348

Take square roots

BC = \sqrt{1348

BC = 36.7

Case 3:

This is not possible because in ANC

The hypotenuse AN (24) is less than AC (40)

The graph of f(x) + 1 is the graph in the option C.

<h3>Which is the graph of f(x) + 1?</h3>

For a given function f(x), a vertical translation is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

  • If N > 0, then the translation is upwards.
  • If N < 0, then the translation is downwards.

Here we have g(x) = f(x) + 1, so we have a translation of 1 unit upwards, the graph of f(x) + 1 is the graph of f(x) but translated one unit upwards.

From that, we conclude that the correct option is C.

Idk how to solve these questions

Of means multiply

3/5 *n=30

3/5 5/3 cancels than you do 30 *5/3 =50

The answer is 50 you can check your answer by doing 3/5 *50=150/5 or 30 so it's correct .
