Find the value of x and y

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

The height of a wooden pole, h, is equal to 15 feet. A taut wire is stretched from a point on the ground to the top of the pole. The  distance from the base of the pole to this point on the ground, b. is equal to 8 feet. What is the length of the wire?

Answer:

Length of wire = 17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The height of the wooden pole is, [tex]h=15\ ft[/tex]

The distance from the base of the pole to this point on the ground is, [tex]b=8\ ft[/tex]

Let the length of the wire be 'l'.

Now, consider the triangle formed by the pole, the base, and the wire. The length of the wire is the slant length and hence the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Using Pythagorean theorem, we can find the hypotenuse.

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2=(height)^2+(base)^2\\l^2=h^2+b^2[/tex]

Plug in the given values and solve for 'l'. This gives,

[tex]l^2=15^2+8^2\\\\l^2=225+64\\\\l^2=289\\\\l=\sqrt{289}\\\\l=\pm17[/tex]

As length can never be negative, we ignore the negative result.

Therefore, the length of the wire is 17 feet.

Answer:

Yes, because there are no repeated input values.

Step-by-step explanation:

*This would not be a function IF any input value (x-value) was repeated. In functions, x-values CANNOT be repeated, but y-values CAN be repeated.

Answer:

x = 40 + -1.5y

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x + 3y = 80

Solving

2x + 3y = 80

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3y' to each side of the equation.

2x + 3y + -3y = 80 + -3y

Combine like terms: 3y + -3y = 0

2x + 0 = 80 + -3y

2x = 80 + -3y

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 40 + -1.5y

Simplifying

x = 40 + -1.5y

Answer:

8.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

15.00 + -6.24 = b

Combine like terms: 15.00 + -6.24 = 8.76

8.76 = b

Solving

8.76 = b

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1b' to each side of the equation.

8.76 + -1b = b + -1b

Combine like terms: b + -1b = 0

8.76 + -1b = 0

Add '-8.76' to each side of the equation.

8.76 + -8.76 + -1b = 0 + -8.76

Combine like terms: 8.76 + -8.76 = 0.00

0.00 + -1b = 0 + -8.76

-1b = 0 + -8.76

Combine like terms: 0 + -8.76 = -8.76

-1b = -8.76

Divide each side by '-1'.

b = 8.76

Simplifying

b = 8.76

Answer:

The amount of tax paid is C. $3.20

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take $50.00 and give a 20% discount, we're taking 20% of 50 and then subtracting it from the origional price (50) which brings us down to 40, because 20% of 50 is 10 and we subtract.

Now that we have $40.00, sales tax comes in at a whopping 8%. To calculate the solution of a price with sales tax, we need to find what 8% of $40 is, which after calculations will be 3.20.

Since this question is asking on tax only, our answer is $3.200, C.

Answer:

x=-17/19, y=131/19. (-17/19, 131/19).

Step-by-step explanation:

-19x=26-9

-19x=17

x=-17/19

9(-17/19)=54-9y

-153/19=54-9y

9y=54-(-153/19)

9y=54+153/19

9y=1026/19+153/19

9y=1179/19

y=(1179/19)/9

y=(1179/19)(1/9)

y=1179/171

y=131/19

Answer:

[tex]x^{2} +7x-170=0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question: The width of a rectangle is 7 meters greater than its length . If the area of the rectangle is 170 m², write the quadratic equation in standard form for the equation that would represent the area of the rectangle. Let x equal to the length of the rectangle.

Given: Width of rectangle is 7 meter greater than length

           Length of rectangle is x.

           Area of rectangle= 170 m²

Now as given, length is x meter and width is (x+7) meter

we know that, area of rectangle= [tex]length\times width[/tex]

∴ substitute the values to get correction equation.

⇒170= [tex]x\times (x+7)[/tex]

now distributing x into (x+7).

⇒ [tex]170= x^{2} +7x[/tex]

subtracting 170 both side.

[tex]x^{2} +7x-170=0[/tex]

∴ [tex]x^{2} +7x-170=0[/tex] is the quadratic equation in standard form for the equation that would represent the area of the rectangle.

Final answer:

The x-value 6.5 in the quadratic function's vertex represents the price of the headphones in dollars at which the company's expected revenue is maximized, according to the revenue function [tex]R= - 5x^2 +65x + 700[/tex].

Explanation:

The question involves understanding the meaning of the x-value in the vertex form of a quadratic function, which in this context represents the price of the headphones for which the company expects to make the maximum revenue. The given function is [tex]R= - 5x^2 +65x + 700[/tex], and the vertex of the graph of this function is given as (6.5, 911.25). The x-value, 6.5, therefore represents the price in dollars at which the revenue of the company is maximized. This is because, in the context of a quadratic revenue model, the vertex represents the maximum point when the parabola opens downwards (which it does, since the coefficient of x² is negative), meaning that increasing or decreasing the price from this point will lead to a decrease in the total revenue.

Rajeev will pay Rs 6876.10 for the goods.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of goods = Rs 6650

Rebate = 6%

Amount of rebate = 6% of worth of goods

Amount of rebate = [tex]\frac{6}{100}*6650=0.06*6650[/tex]

Amount of rebate = Rs 399

Amount after rebate = 6650 - 399 = Rs 6251

Sales tax = 10%

Amount of sales tax = 10% of amount after rebate

Amount of sales tax = [tex]\frac{10}{100}*6251=0.1*6251[/tex]

Amount of sales tax = Rs 625.10

Total amount of goods paid = Amount after rebate + sales tax

Total amount of goods paid = 6251+625.10 = Rs 6876.10

Rajeev will pay Rs 6876.10 for the goods.

The new mean is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean = sum of the numbers ÷ numbers

∵ The set has 5 numbers

∵ The mean of the 5 numbers is 12

- Substitute these values in the rule of the mean above

∴ 12 = sum of the numbers ÷ 5

- Multiply both sides by 5

∴ 60 = sum of the numbers

∵ One of the number is 16

∵ 16 is removed from the set of the number

- Subtract 16 from the sum and the numbers will be four numbers

∵ The new sum = 60 - 16

∴ The new sum = 44

∵ The set has 4 numbers

∴ The new mean = 44 ÷ 4 = 11

The new mean is 11

The graph of y = x is transformed by a reflection about the x-axis, a horizontal translation to the left by 2 units, and a vertical translation upward by 3 units to produce the graph of y = -(x + 2)^2 + 3.

The given equation is y = -(x + 2)^2 + 3, and we need to describe the transformations of the graph of y = x that will produce this graph.

The first transformation is the reflection about the x-axis, which is indicated by the negative sign in front of the original equation. This flips the graph upside down.

The second transformation is the horizontal translation to the left by 2 units, which is indicated by the addition of 2 inside the parentheses. This shifts the graph 2 units to the left.

The third transformation is the vertical translation upward by 3 units, which is indicated by the addition of 3 to the entire equation. This moves the graph 3 units up.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Curved surface Area = 2πrh

Area of its bases = 2πr²

6* Area of its bases = 4 * Curved surface Area

6 * 2πr² = 4 *2πrh

r²  / r = 4 * 2* π*12 / 6 * 2 * π   { substituting h =12 cm}

r = 4*2

r = 8 cm

Curved surface Area = 2πrh

= 2 * 3.14 * 12 * 8

= 602.88 Sq. cm

Answer:

603.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Curved Surface Area = 2πrh sq.cm

Area of the base = πr² sq. cm

Sum area of the base = πr² + πr² = 2πr² sq.cm

                               A.T.Q

4(2πrh) = 6x2πr²

8πrh = 12πr²

2h = 3r

r = 8 cm

Curved Surface Area = 2πrh

There is no graph, so it is impossible to answer this question. I apologise.

Answer:

It is B.   (36√5 + 36) ft^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total area = area of the base +  4 * area of the triangular side.

The slant height of a triangular side =  √(6^2 + 3^2)

= √45

= 3√5

The area of this side = 3 * 3 √5

= 9√5.

Therefore the total area of the pyramid

=  6^2 + 4*9√5

= (36 + 36√5) ft^2.

Answer:

y = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

You do 110° + 80° which is 180 divides by two because there is a straight line in the middle of it. I don't know how to explain it.

Answer:

90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

you have angles of 110 and 70 on the sides. The triangle altogether equals 180 but that doesn't matter in this equation. Since y is directly between the two angles that are given, it is 90.

110-70=40/2=20 so add 20 to 70 and subtract 20 from 110 so you get 90.

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 4,818'000,000 kilowatt-hours per year and B. 481,800 households.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the questions:

Power capacity of the wind farms = 2,200 Megawatts or 2.2 Gigawatts

2. Let's resolve the questions A and B:

Part A

Assuming wind farms typically generate 25​% of their​ capacity, how much​ energy, in​ kilowatt-hours, can the​ region's wind farms generate in one​ year?

2,200 * 0.25 = 550 Megawatts

550 Megawatts = 550 * 1,000 Kilowatts = 550,000 Kilowatts

Now we calculate the amount of Kilowatts per hour, per day and per year:

550,000 Kw generated by the farms means that are capable of produce 550,000 kw per hour of energy

550,000 * 24 = 13'200,000 kilowatt-hours per day

13'200,000 * 365 = 4,818'000,000 kilowatt-hours per year

Part B

Given that the average household in the region uses about​ 10,000 kilowatt-hours of energy each​ year, how many households can be powered by these wind​ farms?

For calculating the amount of households we divide the total amount of energy the wind farms can generate (4,818'000,000 kilowatt-hours) and we divide it by the average household consumption (10,000 kilowatt-hours)

Amount of households =  4,818'000,000/10,000 = 481,800

Grant needs to ride at least 13.33 miles to male at least $ 15.00 a day

Solution:

Given that Grant has an agreement with Brian to rent the bike for $35.00 a night

He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them

Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day

To find: miles needed to ride

From given question, He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them

So if he transports for "x" miles he would get,

[tex]\$ 3.75 \times x = \$ 3.75x[/tex]

So the profit he gets is $ 3.75 and initial cost invested to rent bike is $ 35. Also, Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day

So we can frame a inequality as:

[tex]3.75x - 35 \geq 15\\\\3.75x\geq 35 + 15\\\\3.75x\geq 50\\\\x \geq 13.33[/tex]

So he needs to ride atleast 13.33 miles to male atleast $ 15.00 a day

Answer:

this should be correct.

Answer:

It would take approximately 6.50 second for the cannonball to strike the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

[tex]h(t)=-4.9t^2+30.5t+8.8[/tex]

We need to find the time takes for the cannonball to strike the ground.

Substitute h(t) = 0 in above function.

[tex]-4.9t^2+30.5t+8.8=0[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 10.

[tex]-49t^2+305t+88=0[/tex]

For a quadratic equation of the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex] the solutions are: [tex]x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Substitute a = -49, b = 305 and c=88

[tex]t=\frac{-305+\sqrt{305^2-4\left(-49\right)88}}{2\left(-49\right)}=-\frac{-305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}\\t = \frac{-305-\sqrt{305^2-4\left(-49\right)88}}{2\left(-49\right)}= \frac{305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}[/tex]

Ignore the negative value of t as time can't be a negative number.

Thus,

[tex]t=\frac{305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}\approx6.50[/tex]

Hence, it would take approximately 6.50 second for the cannonball to strike the ground.

Liza is driving to her sister's house 360 miles away. After 4 hours, Liza is 2/3 of the way there.   How many more hours  does Liza have to drive?

Answer:

Liza need to drive 2 more hours to reach her sister house

Solution:

Given that Liza is driving to her sister's house 360 miles away

So total distance = 360 miles

After 4 hours, Liza is 2/3 of the way there.

[tex]\frac{2}{3} r d \text { of total distance }=\frac{2}{3} \times 360=240[/tex]

So Liza has covered 240 miles in 4 hours

Let us find the speed

The relation between distance and speed is given as:

[tex]speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

[tex]speed = \frac{240}{4} = 60[/tex]

Thus speed = 60 miles per hour

Assuming speed is same throughout the journey, let us calculate the time taken to complete remaining distance

Remaining distance = 360 - 240 = 120 miles

Now distance = 120 miles and speed = 60 miles per hour

[tex]time taken = \frac{distance}{speed}\\\\time taken = \frac{120}{60} = 2[/tex]

Thus Liza need to drive 2 more hours to reach her sister house
