Mathematics
1 answer:
levacccp [35]2 years ago

Answer:

the road is 142 ft away from the center of the bridge tower.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the bridge tower is standing vertical to the the road, therefore, the angle made by it is a right angle.

Therefore, the triangle made by cable(hypotenuse) and bridge tower (Perpendicular) on road (base) must be a right angled triangle.

Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem, we have

H² = P²+ B²

P²=H²-B²

P²=(245.9)²-(200.7)²

P=√20186.32=142.07

A certain medicine is given in an amount proportional to a patient's body weight. Suppose a patient weighing 104 pounds requires
Olegator [25]
104 / 169 = x / 224.25......104 lbs to 169 mg = x lbs to 224.25 mg
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(169)(x) = (104)(224.25)
169x = 23322
x = 23322 / 169
x = 138 lbs <==

Algebra 2 help please ASAP
Burka [1]

Answer:

The option A,D and E are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 2x^3-250x^2

Factor : 2x^2(x-125)

So, GCF = 2x^2

Now a = 1 and b= 5

we know that a^3-b^3 = (a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)

(x)^3 - (5)^3 = (x-5)(x^2+5x+25)

So, the option A,D and E are correct.
