A guy wire runs from the top of a cell tower to a metal stake in the ground. Joseph places a 8-foot tall pole to support the guy

wire. After placing the pole, Joseph measures the distance from the stake to the pole to be 8 ft. He then measures the distance from the pole to the tower to be 25 ft. Find the length of the guy wire, to the nearest foot.

To solve this equation, we need to use the pythagorean theorem.
if 8^2+25^2=the guy wire^2
64+625=the guy wire^2
689=the guy wire^2
the guy wire is 26.25 feet long.

On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line with negative slope goes through (0, 1) and (2, negative 2). Everything to the lef
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

y

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line passes through (0,1) and (2,-2).

Equation of a straight line passing through two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

is given by:

y-y_{1}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}(x-x_{1})

y-1=\frac{-2-1}{2-0}(x-0)

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1

Everything to the left of the line is shaded.

We have to visualize the graph:the straight line has a positive y-intercept and a negative slope.The graph is given in the attachment below.

From the figure we can see origin lies on the shaded region.Hence (0,0) should satisfy the inequality.

LHS=y=0

RHS=-\frac{3x}{2}+1=1\ (x=0)

LHS<RHS as 0<1

Hence , the inequality is:

y

ElenaW [278]

Answer: B. False

Step-by-step explanation: Because you do

4x - 3 = 19

+3 +3 =4x = 22

You divide 4x divide by 4 and you get x

Then you divide 22 by 4 and get 5.5

So the answer is X = 5.5
