Answer:

  65.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of strings required to tie each vertex to the other three will be ...

  (4)(3)/2 = 6

Those strings will be perimeter strings plus two diagonal strings. The lengths of the perimeter strings are given as 12 ft and 7 ft. The lengths of the diagonal strings can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

  d² = 12² +7² = 144 +49 = 193

  d = √193 ≈ 13.892

Then the total length of all strings is ...

  L = 2(12.0 +7.0 +13.9) = 65.8 . . . . feet

The artist will need 65.8 feet of string.

The graph of the piecewise function f(x) is shown what is the domain of f(x)
Rom4ik [11]

The domain of a function is where we have a value for x.

Since that's the case the domain of f(x) = {x e R / 1 ≤ x < 5}

We see that we have a value for x = 1 cuz we have a filled circle, but we don't have a value for x = 5, look at the unfilled circle

So, our x can vary between 1 and 5, but can't be 5.

(Please help, problem is in the photo.)

First we need to find the gradient of K
which is y1-y2/x1-x2
(-1,3) and (5,-2)
so it becomes 3-(-2)/-1-5
m=-5/6
when two lines are perpendicular their gradients multiply to make -1
that means the gradient of L has to be 6/5
we can substitute the point on L (5,-2) and the gradient of 6/5 into y=mx+c
-2 = (6/5) x 5 + c
c = -8
the equation of line L is y= 6x/5 -8
