A ladder that is 17 feet long is 8 feet from the base of a wall. How far up the wall does the ladder reach?

Answers

Answer 1
H=17ftB=8ft

Using Pythagoras theorem

[tex]\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto P^2=H^2-B^2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto P^2=17^2-8^2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto P^2=289-64[/tex]

[tex]\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto P^2=225[/tex]

[tex]\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto P=\sqrt{225}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto P=15ft[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

Applying the Pythagorean theorem we have :wall length is : a²-b²=c²⇒17²-8²=c²⇒c=15(c>=0)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have : the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle ; the length of the ladder, which is far from the wall, is the right angle side of the triangle (draw your own illustration)

if the cost of 5 dozen of copies is rupees 60 what is the cost of 33 such copies​

Answers

Answer: Rs 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 5 dozen copies = Rs 60

Total copies in 5 dozen = 5×12

= 60

Cost of each copy = 60/60

= Rs 1 per copy

Cost of 33 copies = 33×1

= Rs 33

Therefore cost of 33 such copies is Rs 33

In a survey of women in a certain country the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches answer the followinv questions about the specified normal distribution

Answers

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In a survey of women in a certain country ( ages 20-29), the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches.  Answer the following questions about the specified normal distribution.  (a) What height represents the 99th percentile?  (b) What height represents the first quartile?  (Round to two decimal places as needed)

Solution :

Let the random variable X represents the height of women in a country.

Given :

X is normal with mean, μ = [tex]62.9[/tex] inches and the standard deviation, σ = [tex]2.81[/tex] inches

Let,

[tex]$Z=\frac{X - 62.9}{2.81}$[/tex] , then Z is a standard normal

a). Let the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile is = a

The point a is such that,

[tex]$P(X<a)=0.99$[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{a-62.9}{2.81} \right) = 0.99$[/tex]

From standard table, we get : [tex]P( Z < 2.3263) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(a-62.9)}{281} = 2.3263$[/tex]

  [tex]$a= (2.3263 \times 2.81 ) +62.9$[/tex]

     = 6.536903 + 62.9

     = 69.436903

     = 69.5 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile = 69.5 inches.

b). Let b = height represents the first quartile.

It is given by :

[tex]P( X < b) =0.25[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81} \right) = 0.25$[/tex]

From the standard normal table,

[tex]P( Z < -0.6745) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81}= 0.6745$[/tex]

[tex]$b=(0.6745 \times 2.81) +62.9$[/tex]

  = 1.895345 + 62.9

   = 64.795345

   = 64.8 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the 1st quartile is 64.8 inches.

Instructions : X,Y,and Z are midpoints. Find the length of each segment.​

Answers

Answer:

MZ = 10

ZO = 10

MO = 20

XZ = 9

YZ = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are all the same, proportionally.

X is midpoint of 14, so 7

Y for 18, so 9

Triangle with 10 is 7, 9, 10

Full triangle is double at 14, 18, MO

Since angle N is same angle, MO is double 10, so 20

Z is midpoint, so both halves are 10

Because of midpoints, XZ and YZ with 10 form same triangle as half triangle at 9, 7, and 10 respectively.

Solve the simple interest formula, I = Prt, for P. (2 points)

P = Irt

P equals r over i t

P equals i over r t

Answers

Answer:

t= i/pr

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given that the amount of simple interest earned is given by the formula, i= prt

The above formula is an example of a literal equation.

We want to solve this formula for T.

But we can observe that the product of two letters  are multiplying the letter T.

So we multiply both sides of the literal equation by the reciprocal of PR witch is 1/PR to obtain, I*1/PR=*PRT

This implies that, i/pr=t

We can rewrite this as, t=i/pr

Therefore the correct answer is C.

P equals I over r t

What is the distance between (1, 9) and (1, -4)? Use the distance formula.

D=(x2-x1)2+(y2-y1)2

Answers

Answer:

D. 13

Step-by-step explanation:

You just have to plug in numbers then solve.

(1,9) and (1,-4). Every coordinate is placed as (x,y)

(1,9) is labeled as (x1, y1)

(1,-4) is labeled as (x2,y2)

Now plug in the numbers.

d= Square root of (1-1)^2 + (-4-9)^2

d= Square root of 1^2 +-13^2

d= Square root of 1+169

d= Square root of 170

d= 13.04

Rounded to a whole number, the answer is 13

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to substitute the values in the distance formula,in this case x2 is 1,x1 is 1,y2 is -4 and y1 is 9

d=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

=√(1-1)²+(-4-9)²

=√(0)²+(-13)²

=√169

=13

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{(2, 8)}[/tex]

Solve by setting the two equations equal to each other:

-2x² + 4x + 8 = -4x + 16

Move all terms to one side:

-2x² + 4x + 4x + 8 - 16 = 0

Simplify:

-2x² + 8x - 8 = 0

Factor out a negative 2 from each term:

-2(x² - 4x + 4) = 0

Factor:

-2(x - 2)² = 0

Set the factor equal to 0 to solve:

(x - 2)² = 0

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

Substitute this value of x into an equation to find the shared y value:

y = -4(2) + 16 = 8

Answer: x=35

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we can use the Pythegorean Theorem because this is a right triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem: a²+b²=c²

[tex]12^2+x^2=(x+2)^2[/tex]             [exponent and distribute]

[tex]144+x^2=x^2+4x+4[/tex]       [subtract both sides by 144]

[tex]x^2=x^2+4x-140[/tex]             [subtract both sides by x²+4x]

[tex]-4x=-140[/tex]                       [divide both sides by -4]

[tex]x=35[/tex]

Now, we know that x=35.
