A piece of string is hung from the points (-6,3) and (6,3) in the plane so that it hangs “down” (in the -y direction) to just touch the origin as it’s vertex. How high above the x axis is the string over x=2

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

eq. of line through (0,0) and (6,3)

[tex]slope=\frac{3-0}{6-0} =\frac{1}{2} \\y-0=\frac{1}{2} (x-0)\\y=\frac{1}{2}x\\when~x=2\\y=\frac{1}{2}*2=1[/tex]
