For a project in his Geometry class, Mamadou uses a mirror on the ground to measure the height of his school's football goalpost. He walks a distance of 13.75 meters from his school, then places a mirror on flat on the ground, marked with an X at the center. He then steps 2.6 meters to the other side of the mirror, until he can see the top of the goalpost clearly marked in the X. His partner measures the distance from his eyes to the ground to be 1.75 meters . How tall is the goalpost? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a meter .
Answer:
Height of the goalpost is 9.25 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the rule of reflection in physics,
Angle of incidence = Angle of reflection
As we can see in the picture attached, both the angles (θ) are equal.
m∠ACB = m∠ECD = 90° - θ
m∠ABC = m∠ADC = 90°
Therefore, both the triangles ΔABC and ΔEDC will be similar.
And by the property of similar triangles, their corresponding sides will be proportional.
[tex]\frac{AB}{ED}= \frac{CB}{CD}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1.75}{ED}=\frac{2.6}{13.75}[/tex]
ED = [tex]\frac{1.75\times 13.75}{2.6}[/tex]
ED = 9.25 m
Height of the goalpost is 9.25 m.

Given a line segment that contains the points A,B, & C in order,if AB = 5x + 4, BC = 4x - 8, and AC = 23, find the length of segment AB.
Select one:
a. 23
b. 9
c. 19
d. 3
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
AB + BC = AC , that is
5x + 4 + 4x - 8 = 23
9x - 4 = 23 ( add 4 to both sides )
9x = 27 ( divide both sides by 9 )
x = 3
Then
AB = 5x + 4 = 5(3) + 4 = 15 + 4 = 19 → C

How do I do this problem?
Step-by-step explanation:
here is the answer to your question
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I would start from the beginning and find the slope myself, just so I know what's going on (as opposed to being dropped in the middle of the problem). The slope formula is:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] and for us:
[tex]m=\frac{5-3}{4-3}=2[/tex] so the slope is indeed 2. Now we need to write the equation in slope-intercept form. I find it easier to first write the equation in point-slope form and then solve it for y. Point-slope form is
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex] where m is the slope (2) and x1 and y 1 are from one of the coordinates (whichever one you want; as long as you do the math correctly, you will NOT get an incorrect answer. In other words, you can't pick the "wrong" point to use to write the equation.) I'm going to use (3, 3):
y - 3 = 2(x - 3) and
y - 3 = 2x - 6 and
y = 2x - 6 + 3 so
y = 2x - 3 and that's your equation. Of course, you will enter a (-3) in that box with the ? in it.

What is the solution to the equation below?
√2x/√x-1=2
A. 4 B. 2 C. 5 D.3
Given:
The given equation is:

To find:
The solution for the given equation.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]\dfrac{\sqrt{2x}}{\sqrt{x-1}}=2[/tex]
On simplification, we get
[tex]\sqrt{2x}=2\sqrt{x-1}[/tex]
Squaring both sides, we get
[tex]2x=4(x-1)[/tex]
[tex]2x=4x-4[/tex]
[tex]2x-4x=-4[/tex]
[tex]-2x=-4[/tex]
Divide both sides by -2.
[tex]x=\dfrac{-4}{-2}[/tex]
[tex]x=2[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is B.

Graph a line with a slope of 4 that contains the point (3,0). FOR 100 POINTS PLS
I DONT NEED THE EQUATION I NEED TO SEE IT GRAPHED
ALSO PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME
Answer:
Hi there!
Recall that slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
Where m = slope
In this instance, we are given a slope of 4,
therefore:
y = 4x + b
Substitute in the x and y coordinates of the point given:
0 = 4(3) + b
0 = 12 + b
Substract 12 from both side:
-12 = b
Therefore, the equation would be:
y = 4x - 12
Graph the equation by finding x and y values or using a calculator:
x = 0, y = 4(0) - 12 = 12 (0, 12)
x = 1, y = 4(1) - 12 = - 8 (1, -8)
x = 2, y = 4(2) - 12 = - 4 (2, -4)
x = 3, y = 4(3) - 12 = 0 (3, 0)
And so forth:

Rachel, Trey, and Juan sent a total of 85 text messages over their cell phones during the weekend. Rachel sent 10 more messages than Trey. Juan sent 3 times as many messages as Rachel. How many messages did they each send?
Answer:
Trey = 9 text messages
Rachel = 19 text messages
Juan = 57 text messages
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Number of messages Trey sent = x
Number of messages Rachel sent = x + 10
Number of messages Juan sent = 3(x + 10)
Total messages = 85
Total = Trey + Rachel + Juan
85 = x + (x + 10) + 3(x + 10)
85 = x + x + 10 + 3x + 30
85 = 5x + 40
85 - 40 = 5x
45 = 5x
x = 45/5
x = 9
Number of messages Trey sent = x = 9 text messages
Number of messages Rachel sent = x + 10
= 9 + 10
= 19 text messages
Number of messages Juan sent = 3(x + 10)
= 3(9 + 10)
= 3(19)
= 57 text messages

This is because the nth term is found by adding the previous two terms
F(n) = nth term
F(n-1) = term just before the nth term
F(n-2) = term before the F(n-1) term
F(n) = F(n-1) + F(n-2)
We can re-index values of n to say this equivalent statement
F(n+2) = F(n+1) + F(n)
Based on either equation mentioned, adding F(51) and F(52) will get us F(53). In other words, the 51st and 52nd terms add to the 53rd term.

Using the digits 0, 1, 2, ...8, 9, determine how many 4-digit numbers can be constructed according to the following criteria.
The number must be odd and greater than 6,000; digits may be repeated.
The number of 4-digit numbers that can be constructed is
Answer:
2000
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the number must be odd, it can have either 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9 in its one's place.
With a 4-digit number starting with 6, any of these digits can be in the one's place and it will still be greater than 6,000.
For the one's place, since we can choose from 5 digits, we have ⁵P₁. In the thousands place, we have one digit which is 6. For the tens and hundreds, place, we can choose from ten digits. So, we have ¹⁰P₁ and ¹⁰P₁ respectively.
So, the total number of 4 digit odd numbers greater than 6000 starting with 6 are 1 × ¹⁰P₁ × ¹⁰P₁ × ⁵P₁ = 1 × 10 × 10 × 5 = 500 numbers.
For the thousands place, we are left with the digits 7, 8 and 9. So, to arrange these 3 digits in the thousands place, we have ³P₁. For the tens and hundreds, place, we can choose from ten digits. So, we have ¹⁰P₁ and ¹⁰P₁ respectively. For the one's place, since we can choose from 5 digits, we have ⁵P₁.
So, the total number of 4 digit odd numbers greater than 6000 starting with 7, 8 or 9 are ³P₁ × ¹⁰P₁ × ¹⁰P₁ × ⁵P₁ = 3 × 10 × 10 × 5 = 1500 numbers.
So, the total number of 4-digit numbers greater than 6000 that can be constructed is 500 + 1500 = 2000 numbers.

[tex](a^m)^{n}[/tex] = [tex]a^{mn}[/tex]
[tex]a^{-m}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex]
Then
[tex](y^b)^{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{y^{24} }[/tex]
[tex]y^{4b}[/tex] = [tex]y^{-24}[/tex]
Equate the exponents
4b = - 24 ( divide both sides by 4 )
b = - 6 → C

What is an Equation of a line?The equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
And y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )
y = y-coordinate of second point
y₁ = y-coordinate of point one
m = slope
x = x-coordinate of second point
x₁ = x-coordinate of point one
The slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
Given data ,
Let the equation of line be represented as A
Now , the value of A is
Let the first point be P ( 7 , 2 )
Let the second point be Q ( 0 , 0 )
Now , the slope of the line is m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
Substituting the values in the equation , we get
Slope m = ( 2/7 )
Now , the equation of line is y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )
y - 0 = ( 2/7 ) ( x - 0 )
y = ( 2/7 )x
Hence , the equation of line is y = ( 2/7 )x
