A 20-foot ladder is placed against a vertical wall of a building, with the bottom of the ladder standing on level ground 6 feet from the base of the building. How high up the wall does the ladder reach?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

19.1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This forms a right triangle

use the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 6^2 = 20^2

a^2 + 36 = 400

a^2 = 364

a = 19.0787840283

Rounded

19.1 feet

Write the equation of a line that
passes through the following points
:
Point 2: (0,-8)
Point 1: (-3,0)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{-8}{3}x - 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for the equation of the line with two points:

Let's remind ourself of the slope - intercept formula:    [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

We first have to find the slope of the line. This is found by using the formula :

[tex]\frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}[/tex]

We have to find the change in y (Δy) and divide it by the change in x (Δx)

We then have to plug in a coordinate given to us, and use the point's x and y value to find the y - intercept

Step 1: Slope

Let's use the slope formula

[tex]\frac{0 - (-8)}{-3 - 0} = \frac{8}{-3}[/tex]

Slope = -8/3

Step 2: Y - Intercept

To find the y - intercept, we'll update our slope - intercept formula with the slope, and plugin a point. Let's use (-3,0)

[tex]y = \frac{-8}{3}x + b[/tex]

[tex]0 = \frac{-8}{3}(-3) + b[/tex]

[tex]0 = \frac{24}{3} + b[/tex]

[tex]0 = 8 + b[/tex]

[tex]b = -8[/tex]

Step 3: Equation

Let's input our slope and y - intercept to the equation     [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Slope = -8/3

Y - Intercept = -8

Equation:    [tex]y = \frac{-8}{3}x - 8[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PRT/100 = I, we can prove that x = 8.

=> 1000 x 0.65 x 8/100

Step-by-step explanation:

scenario 3:

let m= cost per minute for WDE, let b= flat fee for WDE

42.5=50m+b

65=100m+b

subtract the two equations

65-42.5=50m

m= .45 (this is the cost per minute on WDE wireless)

plug in m=.45 into the first equation

42.5=50(.45)+b

b= 20 (this is the fixed monthly fee for WDE wireless)

HTR offers .25 per minute, whereas WDE offers .45 a minute which means that HTR has the cheaper per minute rate

htr has the equation .25x+30

WDE has the equation .45x+30

set them equal to each other and solve for x .25x+30=.45x+20

x= 50 minutes

Scenario 4:

Same deal as last question, let m=cost/movie, b=flat fee

41.25=5m+b

57.5=10m+b

subtract the two equations and solve for m

57.5-41.25=10m-5m+b-b

m= 3.25 (slope)

b=25  (y intercept)

y=3.25x+25

y=3.25(125)+25  = 431.25

3.25x+25=2.75x+35

.5x= 10

x= 20

Graph the equation and identify the intercept(s). If the equation is linear, find the slope of the line.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 km is 1000 metres

so, 1 km² = 1000 x 1000 m²

i.e. 1 km² = 1,000,000 m²

=> 63,800,000,000/1,000,000 = 63,800

The second significant figure is 3 --> 3000

so, to the nearest 1000 we have 64,000 (2 s.f)

x=6.7

Step-by-step explanation:

In relation to the given angle, we are given the triangle's opposite side and hypotenuse. Therefore, we use the sine function to set up a proportion and solve for x:

[tex]sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]sin(31^\circ)=\frac{x}{13}[/tex]

[tex]13sin(31^\circ)=x[/tex]

The value of a new car in 2015 was 40,000 dollar. It depreciates each year by 7%. How much will the car be worth in 2026?

Answers

Answer: $30,800

Step-by-step explanation: First you have to subtract 2026 - 2015, which is 11 years. Since it depreciates by 7% each year, you would multiply 7 by 11, which is 77. 77 is the percent of depreciation of the car. After that, you would divide 40000 by 100, which is 400. Then you multiply 400 by 77 to get you final answer.
