The slant length of each cable can be calculated using Pythagoras Theorem,
L= √ (8^2+3^2)
= √ (64+9)
= √ (73)
Total length of each cable
T = L + 8/12 + 8/12
= √ (73) + 4/3 
Total length of cables required
= 3T 
= 3 ( √ 73 + 4/3)
=( 3 √ 73 + 4 ) feet

What is the range of the function shown on the graph above?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

D: 0 < y < 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the input (i.e. the x values)

The range is the output (i.e. the y values)

So for the range, look at the y-coordinates of the end points of the line: (-6, 0) and (9, 7)  ⇒  0 < y < 7
