A 13-foot ladder is leaning against a tree. The bottom of the ladder is 5 feet away from the bottom of the tree. Approximately how high up the tree does the top of the ladder reach?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a classic 5-12-13 triangle or you can used the Pythagorean Theorem:

[tex]13^{2} -5^{2}=x^{2} \\169-25=x^{2} \\144=x^{2} \\12=x[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

The tree is 12 about feet high.

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to find the answer is with Pythagorean Theorem.

The ladder is 13 feet and is the hypotenuse or c.

13^2

The 5 feet away from the tree is one of the two legs or a

5^2

We are trying to find the second leg, b.

b^2

Now you write the formula:

c^2=a^2+b^2

Then insert the numbers:

13^2=5^2+b^2

The isolate the variable:

Subtract 5^2 on each side

13^2 - 5^2=b^2

Now flip the expression so the variable is on the left side:

b^2=13^2 - 5^2

Simplify:

b^2=169 - 25

Simplify:

b^2= 144

Square root both sides to get the variable alone:

srt b^2 is b

srt 144 is 12

b=12

Don't forget units!

The tree is 12 feet high

Give the greatest common divisor of $6^3$ and $3^6$.

Answers

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3^6 is only divisible by 3 and powers of 3(including 1) the gcd of 3^6 and 6^3 mus be a power of 3 hence we need to find the highest powers of 3 that divide 6^3 and that divide 3^6, which are respectively 3^3 and 3^6, hence, taking the smaller one (since we want it to divide both), our answer is 3^3=27.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Greatest common divisor is the largest positive integer that divides each integer in the given problem

6³ = (2* 3)³ = 2³ * 3³

3⁶ = 3³ * 3³

Greatest common divisor = 3³ = 3* 3* 3 = 27

2. Ravi purchased an old house for Rs. 76.5000 and
spent Rs. 115000 on its. Then he sold it at a
gain of 5%. How many
much did he get.​

Answers

Answer:

Rs. 924000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of  house = 765000

Additional money spent on it = 115000

Total cost incurred by Ravi = 765000 + 115000 = 880000

Gain  = 5% of total cost

gain in Rs = 5/100 * 880000 = Rs. 44000

Total selling price of house = total cost incurred + profit = 880000+ 44000

Total selling price of house = Rs. 924000

Thus, Ravi got  Rs. 924000.

Plane A is descending toward the local airport, and plane B is ascending from the same airport. Plane A is descending at a rate of 2,500 feet per minute. Plane B is ascending at a rate of 4,000 feet per minute. If plane A is currently at an altitude of 14,000 feet and plane B is at an altitude of 1,000 feet, how long will it take them to be at the same altitude? The equation representing plane A’s descent is y = -2,500x + 14,000. The equation representing plane B’s ascent is y = 4,000x + 1,000. In both equations, y represents altitude and x represents time in minutes.

Answers

Answer: 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Plane A's descent :

y = -2,500x + 14,000

Plane B's Ascent :

y = 4,000x + 1,000

where y = altitude x = minute

Time to be at the same altitude :

Being at the same altitude means ;

Plane A's descent = Plane B's Ascent

-2,500x + 14,000 = 4,000x + 1,000

-2500x - 4000x = 1000 - 14000

-6500x = - 13000

x = 13000 / 6500

x = 2

x = 2minutes.

======================================================

Work Shown:

A = area of trapezoid RSTU

A = height*(base1+base2)/2

A = ST*(UT+RS)/2

A = 14*(5+10)/2

A = 105 square cm

-----------------------

B = area of rectangle PQWV

B = length*width

B = WV*PV

B = 7*2.5

B = 17.5 square cm

If you're curious how I got PV = 2.5, you basically cut PT = 10 in half twice. So you go from 10 to 5, then from 5 to 2.5; which works because we have a bunch of midpoints.

-----------------------

C = total shaded area

C = A + B

C = 105 + 17.5

C = 122.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

PART A:  2x^5 + 3x^2-3

It is a fifth degree polynomial because, the highest degree is 5 and it is in the standard form since, the polynomial is written in descending order i.e, from highest degree to the least

part B:

Closure property is  applicable to the subtraction of polynomials.

for example 2x^4+2x^2-5 is a polynomial and 2x^3+2x+2 is also a polynomial.

if we subtract these two polynomials, the outcome

2x^4-2x^3+2x^2-2x-7 is also a polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The fifth degree polynomial

x^5 + x^4 +3x²+4x+9

the three terms 3x², 4x and 9 are forming a second degree polynomial written in standard form

since it has this form :  ax²+bx+c

a=3b=4c=9

Part B

The closure property for real numbers means that the sum oe the substraction of two real numbers  

The substraction of two polynomials is a polynom using the closure property

The nature remains the same

Here is an example :

3x²+5x+8 and x²+x+1

calculate the substraction

3x²+5x+8-(x²+x+1)3x²+5x+8-x²-x-12x²+4x+7

The result is a polynomial

Hope it helps <3

Hello!

Answer:

70 is the smallest number.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sum of 5 consecutive numbers is 360, we can solve for the smallest number algebraically:

Let 'x' represent the smallest number:

and (x + 1), (x + 2), (x + 3), and (x+4) represent the other consecutive numbers:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) + (x+ 4) = 360

Combine like terms:

5x + 10 = 360

Subtract 10 from both sides:

5x = 350

Divide both sides by 5:

x = 70. This is the smallest of the consecutive numbers.

We can check our work:

70 + 71 + 72 + 73 + 74 = 360.

324π in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a sphere = 4πr² ( r is the radius )

Calculate r using the volume (V) formula

V = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]πr³

Here V = 972π , thus

[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]πr³ = 972π ( divide both sides by π )

[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]r³ = 972 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

4r³ = 2916 ( divide both sides by 4 )

r³ = 729 ( take the cube root of both sides )

r = [tex]\sqrt[3]{729}[/tex] = 9

Thus

surface area = 4π × 9² = 4π × 81 = 324π in²

First, use the volume of sphere formula by plugging in the volume into the equation to get the value of r cubed. Then get r by determining the cube root of r cubed. Once you have the value of r, plus that into the surface area of sphere formula to get the surface area of the balloon. Answer: 324pi inches squared (use radian mode on calculator)

The value of side x can be obtained by using the sine rule as shown below:

x/Sine X = y/Sine Y

x/Sine 15 = 10/Sine 23

Cross multiply

x × Sine 23 = 10 × Sine 15

Divide both side by Sine 23

x = (10 × Sine 15) / Sine 23

x = 6.6

Therefore, the value of x is 6.6.
