and then ran a 10-foot rope from the stake to a
place in the
tree 6 feet from the base of the tree. Based on this
information, how far from the vertical was the tree leaning?
?

Which of the statements about the graph of the function y = 2x are true? check all of the boxes that apply. the domain is all real numbers x because the exponent of 2 can be any real number when the x-values increases by 1 unit, the y-value multiplies by 2. the y-intercept is (0, 1). the graph never goes below the x-axis because powers of 2 are never negative. the range is all real numbers.
