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

G(x) = 3x − 3; Find g(−6)
atroni [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is -21.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must plug in -6 for each x in the function.

This is modeled below:

g(x) = 3x - 3

g(-6) = 3(-6) - 3

Now, we must simplify by first multiplying and then adding the remaining terms together.

g(-6) = -18 - 3

g(-6) = -21

Therefore, the correct answer is -21.

Hope this helps!

((I RAISED THE POINTS AND THIS IS MULTIPLE CHOICE))
NeTakaya

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequences and series. A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that follows a pattern were the next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio, r.

an = ar^(n-1)

d) 1/3, 2/3, 4/3, 8/3, 16/3, . . . .

1/3 * 2 = 2/3

2/3 * 2 = 4/3

4/3 * 2 = 8/3

where r = 2, constant multiplier is 2.  //Answer

b)  320, 80, 20, 5, 1.25, . . . . .

320 * 1/4 = 80

80 * 1/4 = 20

20 * 1/4 = 5

r = 1/4 //Answer

Answer: B and D

//Hope this helps.
