Answer:

13 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a right triangle with base 12, height = 15 -10 = 5 and we need to find the hypotenuse which is the distance between the 2 tops.

x^2 = 5^2 + 12^2 = 144 + 25 = 169.

x = sqrt169 = 13 ft.

The distance between the tops of the poles is the hypotenuse of the triangle which is equal to the square root of (12^2 + 5^2)

The hypotenuse = square root (144 + 25) = 13 ft

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

a) if you where to go down two to the left one it would connect from a to b and from b to c. these triangles all equal to each other.

b) the inital value is 63 since you y intercept is 63 and your slope is 2. 63 is the distance at 0 mins over time the slope is 2 per min

Every summer I drive to Michigan. It is 3900km to get there. If I average 100km/hr, how much time will I spend driving?
motikmotik

Answer:

39 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide 3900 km by 100 km, (3900/100) and get 39. Since you are driving 100 km per hour, it will take you 39 hours to get to Michigan.

For the annual rate of change of +70%, find the corresponding growth or Decay Factor.
omeli [17]
Hello there!
1. Okay. So 70% is positive, so it is a corresponding growth. 70% is 0.7 in decimal form. C and D are both eliminated, because that's too large. When something grows by 70%, that is less than double. 0.7 is not right either, because that's more of a decay than a growth. The only answer that makes sense id 1.70, because you are going up, and adding 1 to decimal form brings you to the decimal that when multiplied will bring you to the total. The answer is B: 1.70.

2. So, -75% is negative, so it is a decay factor. A is eliminated, because it makes no sense and B is out, because that represents growth, not decay. You lose 75% of the amount overtime compounded, but you still have 25% that remains. To find that amount, you would subtract that amount from 1 to get the decay. 1 - 0.75 is 0.25. The decay factor is 0.25. The answer is D: 0.25.
