The Slope Of The Rafter Is 15 M.Half The Run Of The Rafter Measure 12m.find The Height Of The Ridge From

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]9\; \rm m[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the run of this rafter is level. Then the height of the ridge (the line with a question mark next to it in the diagram) should be perpendicular to the line marked with [tex]\rm 12\; m[/tex]. The three labelled lines in this diagram will form a right triangle.

The line marked as [tex]15\; \rm m[/tex] will be the hypotenuse of this right triangle.The line marked as [tex]12\; \rm m[/tex] will be one of the triangle's legs.The line representing the height of the ridge (the one with the question mark) will be the other leg of this right triangle.

Hence, the height of this ridge can be found with the Pythagorean Theorem. By the Pythagorean Theorem:

[tex](\text{First Leg})^2 + (\text{Second Leg})^2 = (\text{Hypotenuse})^2[/tex].

In this particular right triangle:

[tex](\text{Height})^2 + (12\; \rm m)^2 = (15\; \rm m)^2[/tex].

[tex](\text{Height})^2 = (15\; \rm m)^2 - (12\; \rm m)^2[/tex].

Therefore, the height of this ridge would be [tex]\sqrt{81}\; \rm m = 9\; \rm m[/tex]. (Note the unit.)

LCM is the Lowest Common Multiple

To find the LCM of 2 numbers, first list a few of the first multiples of each number:

8 = 8,16,24,32,40

6 = 6,12,18,24,30

Here, we notice that 24 is the first multiple that is common in both times tables. Thus, 24 is the LCM

Ubstitute the value for the variable, and state in a complete sentence whether the resulting number sentence is true or false. 20 > 86 − ℎ. Substitute 46 for ℎ.

Answers

Answer:

The number sentence is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality given is

20 > 86 − ℎ

We are to substitute the value of h as 46 to see if the inequality is true or false.

20 > 86 - 46

20 > 40

Since 20 is not greater than 40, the number sentence is false.

There are two approaches to solving the equation -3x + 10 = 4x - 20

What is the answer? pls help      

Subtract 4x from both sides. OR Add 3x to both sides.

              –7x + 10 = –20 OR 10 = 7x – 20

Solve the equation using both approaches.

What is the solution?

Answers

Answer:

X =30/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The first way would be something like:

-7x + 10 = -20. The first thing we would do is to subtract 10 from both sides.

Therefore,

-7x+10-10=-20-10

Simplified, we get

-7x=-30

Remove the negative symbols

7x =30

x=30/7

Second example:

10=7x - 20

Add 20 to both sides.

10+20=7x-20+20

Simplified,

30=7x

x = 30/7

Answer:

What is the solution?

✔ x = 30/7

Step-by-step explanation:

You can take this equation into two approaches.

#1 subtracting 4x from both sides:

-3x+10=4x-20 (subtract 4x from each side)

-7x+10=-20 (then subtract 10 from each side)

-7x=-30 (then divide by -7 to get x by itself)

x=30/7

#2 Add 3x to both sides:

-3x+10=4x-20 (Add 3x to both sides)

10=7x-20 (then add 20 to each side)

30=7x (divide both sides by 7)

30/7=x

Either way you do it you will get x=30/7 as your answer.

In order for a right triangle to be a right triangle, 2 things have to happen.  One is that it has a hypotenuse, which by definition, is the longest side in a right triangle. To test to see if that hypotenuse is actually a hypotenuse, the square of it has to be equal to the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides. Let's test a first.

Keeping in mind that the longest side has to be the hypotenuse, in a. our hypotenuse would have to be 17.  Using Pythagorean's Theorem to test:

[tex]8^2+15^2=17^2[/tex] and

64 + 225 = 289 and

289 = 289.  So a is a right triangle. Now for b:

[tex]20^2+21^2=29^2[/tex] and

400 + 441 = 841 and

841 = 841. So b is also a right triangle. Now for c:

[tex]9^2+16^2=18^2[/tex] and

81 + 256 = 324 and

337 = 324.  Obviously, 337 does not equal 324, so c is not a right triangle.

.  Obviously, 337 does not equal 324, so c is not a right triangle.

HELP!!!! Position and label the triangle on the coordinate plane

Answers

Answer:

Option (2).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question,

ΔLMN is a right triangle with base LM = 3a units

Hypotenuse MN = 5a

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔLMN,

MN² = LM² + NM²

(5a)² = (3a)² + MN²

25a² - 9a² = MN²

MN = √16a²

MN = 4a

Therefore, vertices of the triangle will be L(0, 0), M(3a, 0) and N(0, 4a).

Option (2) will be the answer.

A punter kicks a football into the air with an initial velocity of 84 feet per second. The equation

[tex] {16}t^{2} + 84[/tex]
gives the height of the ball after t seconds.

What is the maximum height of the football.


Answers

Answer:

84feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the ball modelled by the equation h(t)=16t²+84 after t secs. At the maximum height, the velocity of the ball is zero.

Velocity V is the change of rate of displacement.

V = dh/dt = 32t

0 = 32t

t = 0secs

at t = 0;

h(0) = 16(0)²+84

h(0) = 84feet

This shows that the maximum height of the ball is 84feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]

where a₁ is the initial value and d the common difference

Given

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ 10 + (n - 1)3 ]

Then by comparison

2a₁ = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a₁ = 4 ← initial value

and d = 3 ← common difference

Thus

[tex]S_{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{2}[/tex] [ 10 + (7 × 3) ]

The scatter plot below shows the relationship between two variables, x and y. Which kind best fits the data?

Answers

Answer:

The last one on the bottom right

Step-by-step explanation:

When we are trying to fit a line for a number of points, we can fix this line at several points on the graph. However, out of the several lines that we can fit, only one of these lines would work perfectly and it is called the line of best fit.

The reason why it is called the line of best fit is that it is drawn in a manner in which it leaves equal number of points above it as below it.

Supposed we have 15 points for our graph with the line of the slope passing thorough 5, the line of best fit in this case would leave 5 points above and another 5 below the line.

Leaving 6 and 4 is also manageable, but in case where 3 and 7 are left above and below the line, then it becomes a problem

Thus, out of all the representations we have, the one on the bottom right best works
