The base of the 15-foot ladder should be set back from the wall by x feet in order for it to precisely reach the top of a 12-foot wall.

What is nearest tenth?

The decimal number can also be rounded to the nearest tenths place value. The first number that appears after the decimal point is the tenth place value. Look at the hundredth number to round the decimal number to the nearest tenth. If it's more than 5, add one to the tenth value.

The tenths digit stays the same if it is 4 or less. The hundredths place digit, 8, is greater than or equal to 5, so 3.58 can be rounded to 3.6. Due to the fact that the digit in the hundredths place, 2, is less than 5, 3.32 would be rounded to 3.3.

I need the answer

Answers

Answer:

2x =3

The hanger image given in the figure represents balanced equation.

Then we have to write an equation to represent the image.

In balanced form left side = right side

x + x = 1 + 1 + 1

2x = 3

The value v is 9.

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal.

Given that is a structure showing a balanced hanger we need to find the value,

So we can say since the hanger is balanced therefore the weight both sides will be equal,

Therefore,

v + v + v = 27

3v = 27

v = 27

Hence the value v is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 x 5/6 as a fraction in simplest form

1/8 * 5/6 =

5/48

The fraction in simplest form is 5/48.

Given that are two fractions 1/8 and 5/6, we need to find the product of the fractions,

To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

In this case, we have 1/8 multiplied by 5/6.

1/8 x 5/6 = (1 x 5) / (8 x 6)

Multiplying the numerators (1 x 5) gives us 5, and multiplying the denominators (8 x 6) gives us 48.

Therefore, 1/8 x 5/6 simplifies to 5/48.

Which function has the smallest y-intercept?
1) f(x) = 5x
2) x + 3y = 12
3) the line that has a slope of 2 and passes through (-1,3)

Answers

Answer:

y=2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

To start, you know what m is; it's just the slope, which you said was 2. So you can right away fill in the equation for a line somewhat to read:

y=2x+b.

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) point means:

(1,3). When x of the line is 1, y of the line must be 3.

Because you said the line passes through this point, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: b is what we want, the 2 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the the point (1,3).

So, why not plug in for x the number 1 and for y the number 3? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the point you gave!.

(1,3). y=mx+b or 3=2 × 1+b, or solving for b: b=3-(2)(1). b=1.

The equation of the line that passes through the point (1,3) with a slope of 2

is

c)
[tex] \frac{5.5}{15 + c} + \frac{5.5}{15 - c} = 16 [/tex]
d)
[tex] \frac{15}{16 + c} + \frac{15}{16 - c} = 5.5[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the sites of the boat alone is 16 km/h.

downstream and upstream the effective speed is then influenced plus and minus by the current.

the distance traveled is 15km.

as speed = distance/time

then distance / speed = distance / (distance/time) = time

and we know the time it takes : 5.5 hours.

If Ron contributes 10% of his monthly income to a 401(k) paying 5.5% compounded monthly, will he reach his goal for retirement given that his monthly income is 3,142.23? If he does not make his goal then state by what amount he will need to supplement his income. Round all answers to the nearest cent.a.Ron will meet his monthly goal of exactly $4,123 for retirement.b.Ron will meet his monthly goal of $4,123 for retirement with an excess of $125.34.c.Ron will not make his monthly goal of $4,123 and will need $359.74 to supplement his monthly income when he retires.d.Ron will not make his monthly goal of $4,123 and will need $450.61 to supplement his monthly income when he retires.

Answers

Ron will not make his monthly goal of $4,123 and will need $359.74 to supplement his monthly income when he retires.

What is Compound interest?

Compound interest simply means that the interest associated with a bank account, loan, or investment increases exponentially over time.

Given monthly income of Ron is $3,142.23

Ron is 25 years old and is retiring at the age of 65. so he has 40 years to contribute.

Total amount he contribute in 40 years paying 5.5% compounded monthly is given by

interest rate(r) = 0.055/12

time period = 40 years = 480 months

Principal amount = $314.223

Future value = [tex]P(\frac{(1+r)^{n}-1 }{r} )[/tex]

Substitute, we get,

= 3142.23 [tex].10(\frac{(1+\frac{0.055)^{12.40}-1) }{12} }{\frac{0.055}{12} }[/tex]

Thus, future value is $547074.681009.

After retirement his monthly income when he has $547074.681009 amount.

P = (A.i/2)/(1-(1+i/12)⁻ⁿ)

Putting values, we get,

P = (547074.68×0.55/12)/1-(1+0.055/12)⁻²⁴⁰

P = $3763.25

He will receive a monthly income of $3763.25.

But  given he will need a monthly income of $4,123 for 20 years, which is not met by Ron.

So, the amount he needs to supplement his monthly income when he retires by (4123-3763.25)= $359.74

Hence, Ron will not make his monthly goal of $4,123 and will need $359.74 to supplement his monthly income when he retires.

b. y = f(x – 3)
C. y + 3 = f(x)
d. y - 3 = f(x)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When

f(x+3) would indicate a Shift 3 units to the left

f(x-3) indicates a Shift 3 units to the right

y+3=f(x) indicates a Shift 3 units up

y-3=f(x) indicates a Shift 3 units down

Because the graph is shifted 3 units up, it would be y+3=f(x), which is option C

Gigi graphs the parabola (x+1)2=2(y−3).

How does she proceed?

Drag a value, coordinates, equation, or word to the boxes to correctly complete the statements.

Answers

After graphing the parabola [tex](x+1)^2=2(y-3)[/tex], she can fill the boxes as follows:

Gigi identifies that the vertex of the parabola is [tex](-1, 3)[/tex]. The parabola opens up, and the focus is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] unit away from the vertex. The directrix is [tex]1[/tex] unit from the focus. The focus is the point [tex](-1, \frac{7}{2})[/tex]. The directrix of the equation is [tex]y=\frac{5}{2}[/tex].

Since Gigi's parabola has the x-term squared, then the parabola has the general formula

[tex](x-h)^2=4p(y-k)[/tex]

So,

[tex]x-h=x+1 \implies h=-1[/tex]

[tex]y-k=y-3\implies k=3[/tex]

The vertex is

[tex](h,k)=(-1,3)[/tex]

The focus is

[tex](h,k+p)=(-1,3+\frac{1}{2})\\=(-1,\frac{7}{2})[/tex]

The directrix is

[tex]y=k-p=3-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

The other values can be computed as follows;

Direction the parabola opens: Since the value of p is positive, the parabola opens up.

Distance of focus from vertex: The focus and vertex both have the same x position, so the distance will be in terms of the y-coordinates only. The distance from the focus to the vertex is

[tex]\frac{7}{2}-3=\frac{1}{2}\text{ unit}[/tex]

Distance of directrix to focus: The directrix is the line [tex]y=2.5[/tex]. The distance of the directrix to the focus will be

[tex]\frac{7}{2}-\frac{5}{2}=1 \text{ unit}[/tex]
