Running from the top of a flagpole to a hook in the ground there is a rope that is 13 meters long. If the hook is 5 meters from the flagpole, how tall is the flagpole?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the problem we can see that it typifies a right angled triangle. The rope running from the top of the flagpole to the hook on the ground is the hypotenuse of the triangle. Let us call this hypotenuse c. Let the distance between the hook and the foot of the flagpole be b. Let the height of the flagpole be a.

From Pythagoras theorem;

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

a^2= c^2 - b^2

a= √c^2-b^2

From the question

c= 13 metres

b= 5 metres

a= the unknown

a= √c^2-b^2

a= √(13)^2 - (5)^2

a= √169 - 25

a= √144

a= 12 meters

Answer 2

Answer:

The flagpole  12 meters tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Running from the top of a flagpole to a hook in the ground there is a rope that is 13 meters long

∵ The hook is 5 meters from the flag pole

∵ The flagpole and the ground ⊥ to each other

By using Pythagoras theorem:

hypothenus side is 13m

base is 5m

how tall is the flagpole is x

[tex]13^2=x^2+5^2\\\\169=x^2+25\\\\x^2=169-25\\\\x^2=144\\\\x=12m[/tex]

The flagpole  12 meters tall

This question is incomplete. Because it lacks the diagram of the Rectangular prism. Find attached to this answer the appropriate diagram.

Answer:

295.2 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

A Rectangular Prism is a 3 dimensional geometric shape.

The formula used to calculate the volume of the Rectangular Prism = Length × Width × Height

Length = 15cm

Height = 4.8cm

Width = 4.1cm

Volume of the Rectangular Prism = 15cm × 4.8cm × 4.1cm

= 295.2 cm³

choose the definition for the function

Answers

Answer:

The answer above is wrong it actually b

The function shown in the graph is option b.

What is Function?

A function is a relation from a set A to a set B where the elements in set A only maps to one and only one image in set B. No elements in set A has more than one image in set B.

We have from the graph that graph touches the x axis at 2 and at a point between 0 and 1.

That is,

f(x) = 0 when x = 2

Substitute the value of x as 2 in the functions given in the option when x > 1 and find those functions which give y = f(x) = 0.

It is only possible for options 'a' and 'b'.

When x = 2, -2 + 2 = 0.

Also we have the point, when x = 1, y = 1.

x = 1, then -2x + 2 = 0 ≠ 1

x = 1, then -x + 2 = -1 + 2 = 1

So when x = 1, f(x) should be of the form f(x) = -x + 2.

Correct option is option b.

Hence the correct definition of the function is option b.

Esme buys jackets for $500 each and prices them for $700 each. If the selling price is reduced by 20%, what's the profit percentage?

Please help!!! Imma mark you the brainliest!!​

Answers

12%

The cost Esme increased was 200, but then she reduced 20%of 700, which gives 140 dollars reduced. So, we subtract 140 from 200, which is 60 to find the actual increase.

Now, we follow the simple rules of percentage change

Increase divided by original times 100.

So, 60 divided by 500( not 700) times 100 = 12

12% is the very correct answer ever

The measure of one angle is 130°. Which statement is true regarding the 130° angle and angle 3?


They are same-side interior angles, so angle 3 measures 50°.

They are alternate interior angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.

They are corresponding angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.

They are alternate exterior angles, so angle 3 measures 50°.

Answers

Answer:

They are alternate interior angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the pair of angles are inside parallels, and at different sides of the transversal. So, those angles are alternate interior angles by definition, which means they are congruent.

Therefore, the right answer is B.

A certain virus is dying off at a rate of 18% per hour. Initially there were

strain would still be alive after 48 hours? (Round your answer to the
nearest whole number.) *

Answers

Answer:

3 strain would still alive after 48 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of virus = 40000 grams

A certain virus is dying off at a rate of 18% per hour.

We are supposed to find  how much of the  strain would still be alive after 48 hours

Formula : [tex]N(t)=N_0(1-r)^t[/tex]

[tex]N_0[/tex]=Initial population

N(t)= Population after t hours

r = rate of decrease = 18% = 0.18

t = time = 48 hours

So,the  strain would still be alive after 48 hours=[tex]40000(1-0.18)^{48}=2.91 \sim 3[/tex]

Hence 3 strain would still alive after 48 hours
