Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
5x+8y = 24
The answer is c) y=3 -5/8 x
Hello,
f(x)=2x^2-3x+4
f(3a)=2(3a)^2-3*(3a)+4=2*9a²-9a+4=18a²-9a+4
Answer:
Part A: <em>x = </em>55°
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Part A Work:</em>
x + 65 = 120
<em>Part B Work:</em>
<em>
</em>The transversal passes through the 2 conforming lines which allows you to use rules such as opposing interior angles. <em>
</em>

Nice, already in vertex form
y=a(x-h)^2+k
(h,k) is vertex
therfor since (-3,6) is vertex
we are looking for something like
y=a(x-(-3))^2+6 simplified to
y=a(x+3)^2+6
A is ansre
