Pythagoras' theorem, is a basic relationship between the three sides of a right triangle in Euclidean geometry. The height of the window from the ground or the base of the building is 8 feet.
What is Pythagoras theorem?The Pythagorean theorem, sometimes known as Pythagoras' theorem, is a basic relationship between the three sides of a right triangle in Euclidean geometry. The size of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides, according to this rule.
Given the length of the ladder is 10 feet, while the distance between the base of the ladder and the building is 6 feet. Therefore, the height of the window from the base is,
(Length of the ladder)² = (Length between the two)² + (Height)²
(10 feet)² = (6 feet)² + (Height)²
(Height)² = 100 - 36
Height = 8 feet
hence, the height of the window from the ground or the base of the building is 8 feet.

Alice is building a caterpillar habitat for some caterpillars she found in her back yard. She plans to cover all sides of the habitat with screen so the caterpillars get plenty of fresh air. What is the total amount of screen that Alice will need for her habitat? Give an exact answer (do not round).
Answer:
3.04 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface Area =0.8x0.4 = 0.32 (two of these - one on each end)
1x0.4=0.4 (two of these - top and bottom) (Strange to cover bottom with screen, but have to follow the directions.)
1x0.8=0.8 (two of these - front and back)
TOTAL = 0.32+0.32+0.4+0.4+0.8+0.8=3.04
Total amount of screen that Alice will need for her habitat is 3.04 meter square
What is Surface area?The surface area of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies.
Given,
Dimensions of the Caterpillar habitat is,
Width w=1 meter

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. In the figure, angle D measures 31° and angle A measures 27°. The measurement of angle B is °. The measurement of angle F is °.
Answer:
∠B = 63°, ∠F = 59°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that angle D measures 31° and angle A measures 27°.
From the diagram attached, ∠ E = 90°, ∠G = 90°.
Also ∠C + ∠G = 180° (sum of angles on a straight line)
∠C + 90 = 180
∠C = 180 - 90 = 90°
To find the measure of ∠B and ∠F, we use the triangles ABC and DEF, remember that the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180°. In triangle ABC:
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (angles in a triangle).
27 + ∠B + 90 = 180
∠B + 117 = 180
∠B = 180 - 117
∠B = 63°
Also in triangle DEF:
∠D + ∠E + ∠F = 180° (angles in a triangle).
31 + 90 + ∠F = 180
∠F + 121 = 180
∠F = 180 - 121
∠F = 59°

According to the data from the U.S. Census Bureau for 1990-2009, the number of
commercially owned automobiles in the United States can be modeled by the function
A(x) = 1.4x – 130.6x² + 1831.3x + 128,141, where x is the number of years after 1990
and A(x) is the number of automobiles in thousands. The number of privately-owned
automobiles in the United States can be modeled by the function
P(x) = -x + 24.9x² – 177.9x + 1709.5, where x is the number of years after 1990 and
P(x) is the number of automobiles in thousands. Estimate the total number of automobiles
owned in 2005.
Answer: 130875 automobiles
Step-by-step explanation:
To estimate the total number of automobiles owned in 2005, let's first find the number of years
2005 - 1990 = 15 years
Given that the Commercially owned automobiles in the United States can be modeled by the function
A(x) = 1.4x – 130.6x² + 1831.3x + 128,141, where x is the number of years after 1990
and A(x) is the number of automobiles in thousands.
Substitute 15 for x in the function
A(x) = 1.4(15) – 130.6(15)² + 1831.3(15) + 128,141
A(x) = 21 - 29385 + 27469.5 + 128141
A(x) = 126246.5 automobiles
The number of privately-owned automobiles in the United States can be modeled by the function
P(x) = -x + 24.9x² – 177.9x + 1709.5, where x is the number of years after 1990
Substitute 15 for x in the function
P(x) = -(15) + 24.9(15)² – 177.9(15) + 1709.5
P(x) = -15 + 5602.5 - 2668.5 + 1709.5
P(x) = 4628.5 automobiles
The total automobile = A(x) + P(x)
Substitutes for A(x) and P(x)
The total automobile = 126246.5 + 4628.5
= 130875
Therefore, the total number of automobiles owned in 2005 is 130875 automobiles

In the diagram, AC and PR are vertical lines, while CB is a horizontal line segment. If CR : RB = 2 : 3, what are the coordinates of point Q? A. (-2, -4) B. (-1, -5) C. (-3, -3) D. (0, -6)
Answer:
A. (-2,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
If CR:RB is 2:3, and C is (-4,-7), then R is (-2,-7)
You can stop here because only A has the x value as -2.
If you want to look at the y value also, -4 is 2/5 of the way between -2 and -7, which has the same 2:3 proportion.
A rectangle on a coordinate plane is translated 5 units up and 3 units to the left. Which rule describes the translation?
O (x,y) - (x + 5, y-3)
(x, y) - (x + 5, y + 3)
(x,y) - (x-3, y + 5)
O (x,y) - (x + 3, y + 5)
Answer:
[tex](x,y)\rightarrow(x-3,y+5)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
"5 units up" would be "5 added to the current y-value".
"3 units to the left" would be "3 subtracted from the current x-value".
So, the translation rule is:
[tex](x,y)\rightarrow(x-3,y+5)[/tex]
Therefore, Option C should be the correct answer.
Brainilest Appreciated.
The Rule describes the translation is : (x, y) - (x - 3, y + 5)
We have a rectangle on a coordinate plane is translated 5 units up and 3 units to the left.
We have to determine which of the given rules describes the translation.
A point P(3, 3) is translated 10 units up and 4 units to the left. What will be the new coordinates of this point P?The new coordinates of this point P will be - P'( - 1, 13).
According to the question, we have -
Upward translation = 5 units
When the upward translation will take place then, each and every point that lies on that rectangle will have its y - coordinate shifted upwards by +5 units.
Leftward Translation = 3 units
When the leftward translation will take place then, each and every point that lies on that rectangle will have its x - coordinate shifted by - 3 units
to the left.
Hence, rule describes the translation is : (x, y) - (x - 3, y + 5).

A 2-digit number is increased by 36 when the digits are reversed. The sum of the digits is 10. What is the original number?
====================================================
Work Shown:
T = tens digit of the original number
U = units digit of the original number
U+T = 10 since the digits add to 10. Solve for U to get U = 10-T
10T+U = original number
10U+T = new number where digits are reversed
-----------
new number = (old number) + 36
10U+T = (10T+U)+36
10U+T = 10T+U+36
10(10-T)+T = 10T+10-T+36 ... plug in U = 10-T
100-10T+T = 10T+10-T+36
-9T+100 = 9T+46
100-46 = 9T+9T
54 = 18T
18T = 54
T = 54/18
T = 3 is the tens digit of the original number
U = 10-T
U = 10-3
U = 7 is the units digit of the original number
10T+U = 10*3+7 = 30+7 = 37 is the original number
73 is the reversed number.
73-37 = 36 is the difference, showing that 37 increased by 36 leads to 73. The answer is confirmed.

Multiply all terms by x and cancel.
6 + 5/4 = 5x
Combine terms on the left side of the equation.
29/4 = 5x
Divide both sides by 5.
29/4/5 = (5x)/5
29/20 = x
Answer:
x = 29/20Step-by-step explanation:

The LCM of x and 4x is 4x
So we have
[tex] {4x} \times \frac{6}{x} + {4x} \times \frac{5}{4x} = 5 \times {4x} \\ \\ 24 + 5 = 20x \\ \\ 20x = 29 \\ \\ x = \frac{29}{20} \: \: \: or \: \: \: 1 \frac{9}{20} [/tex]

If you're good at bearings pls help mee
What is the true bearing of Milton from Binji?
The leading 0 is important with true bearings. Any true bearing must be three digits.
======================================================
Explanation:
It's not stated, but I'm assuming that Binji and Congo form a flat horizontal line.
B = Binji's location
M = Milton's location
C = Congo's location
The given angles are M = 76 and C = 38. The missing angle is
B = 180-M-C
B = 180-76-38
B = 66
Subtract this from 90 to get 90-66 = 24
The true bearing of Milton from Binji is 024 degrees
In other words, if you are at Binji's location, face directly north, and turn 24 degrees clockwise (turn to the right), then you'll be facing Milton's location.
-------------
Extra info:
In terms of compass notation, the true bearing of 024 degrees converts to N 24 E. This is the same as E 66 N, though convention usually has north used more often (since it's a common reference point with compasses).
N 24 E = start facing north, turn 24 degrees to the east
E 66 N = start facing east, turn 66 degrees to the north

4a : $31.25 [tex]*[/tex] x, 4b : 15 calculators
Question 5 ( 1 ) : [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]( 4 )( [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]J ), Question 5 ( 2 ) : { Kiran ⇒ 28 chips, Mai ⇒ 112 chips, Tyler ⇒ 56 chips }
Step-by-step explanation:
4a. If a school paid $31.25 per calculator, n number of calculators would signify a total cost of $31.25 [tex]*[/tex] n. Similarly if the school bought x number of calculators they paid a total of $31.25 [tex]*[/tex] x.
4b. We know that the school paid $31.25 per calculator, and that they spent $500. To determine the count of calculators we can create an equation that represents the relationship between the total cost, and the number of calculators.
$500 = $31.25 [tex]*[/tex] x, where x = number of calculators,
x = ( About ) 15 calculators
The exact value was 15.87...but as the number of calculators is a whole number ( you can't have part of a calculator ) our solution had to be rounded down to the nearest whole value. After all, we can't have 16 calculators if there are only " 15.87 " present.
Question 5.
1 ) Kiran won 2 / 3rds as many chips as Jada, so we can say K = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]J. Similarly Mai won 4 times as many chips as Kiran ( M = 4K ) and Tyler won half as many chips as Mai ( T = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]M ). Tyler won half as many chips as Mai, but Mai already won 4 times as many chips as Kiran, who in turn won 2 / 3rd as many chips as Jada. Therefore we can substitute each of the expression into one another,
K = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]J ⇒ M = 4K ⇒ T = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]M,
M = 4( [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]J ) ⇒ T = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]M,
T = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]( 4 )( [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]J ) - this is our expression.
2 ) If Jada won 42 chips, we can calculate the number of chips everyone has, knowing that they each are related by a common expression,
Kiran = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]J = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]( 42 ) = 28 chips,
Mai = 4( [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]J ) = 4( 28 ) = 112 chips,
Tyler = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]M = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]( 112 ) = 56 chips
{ Kiran ⇒ 28 chips, Mai ⇒ 112 chips, Tyler ⇒ 56 chips }

Andrea has a $25 gift card
to a art store. She buys four
canvases that are each the same
price. If she now has $2.20 on
her gift card,
what was the price of
each canvas?
Equation:
Solution:
Answer:
$5.70
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to find out how much she spent. SO we do 25-2.20 which is 22.80. Then we have to divide by 4 since she buys four canvases that are the same price. SO 22.80/4=$5.70
Answer: 5.70
Step-by-step explanation:
Gift card = 25
Canvases = x
Since Andrea is buying four canvases, we can say that it is 4x.
Remaining balance = 2.20
Let's set up our equation. To set it up, we can write it like this
4x+2.20= 25
Now, subtract 2.20 on each side
4x = 22.8
Now divide, and you get around 5.70
So, each canvas was $5.70

First you need to find the GCF of the donominators which are 6 and 7. The GCF is 42.
6*x=42. x=7 5*7=35. -35/42 is the first fraction.
7*y=42 y=6 3*6=18. -18/42 is the second fraction.
-35/42 would be bigger but since it is negative, it is smaller.

For what values of a the following expressions are true: |a−5|=5−a
Answer:
Whenever [tex]a\leq 5[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
We can play around with some numbers and develop some rules for this equation.
Note that the number 5 and -5 are used here, so let's try using 5 as a.
[tex]|5-5| = 5-5\\|0| = 0\\0 = 0[/tex]
So 5 works. Let's try a random number like 3.
[tex]|3-5| = 5-3\\|-2| = 2\\2 = 2[/tex]
Okay, with this info we know that we might be able to develop one rule that [tex]a<5[/tex]. Just to test, let's try 0, -3, and -5.
[tex]|0-5| = 5-0\\|-5| = 5\\5 = 5[/tex]
Zero works.
[tex]|-3 - 5| = 5-(-3)\\|-8| = 8\\8 = 8[/tex]
-3 works.
[tex]|-5 -5| = 5-(-5)\\|-10| = 10\\10 = 10[/tex]
-5 works. Now, this might stop here making the equation [tex]-5 \geq a \leq 5[/tex], so let's test a number outside of -5 - say -20.
[tex]|-20 - 5| = 5-(-20)\\|-25| = 25\\25 = 25[/tex]
Yes! This works, so a works for this equation as long as [tex]a \leq 5[/tex].
Hope this helped!

Step-by-step explanation:
Mr. Weaver invested part of his $6000 inheritance in an account that earns 4%
simple interest and the other part in an account that earns 7% simple interest.
How much did he invest in each account if the two accounts earned $360 after
the first year?
Answer:
Mr. Weaver invested $ 2,000 in the 4% simple interest account and $ 4,000 in the 7% simple interest account.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Amount of the inheritance = $ 6,000
Interest rate of the first part = 4% simple
Interest rate of the second part = 7% simple
Interest of the accounts after the first year = $ 360
2. How much did he invest in each account?
For answering the question, we will use the following equation:
x = Amount invested in the first account
6,000 - x = Amount invested in the second account
0.04x + 0.07 * (6,000 - x) = 360
0.04x + 420 - 0.07x = 360
-0.03x = 360 - 420 (Subtracting 420 at both sides)
-0.03x = -60
x = -60/-0.03
x = 2,000 ⇒ 6,000 - x = 4,000
Mr. Weaver invested $ 2,000 in the 4% simple interest account and $ 4,000 in the 7% simple interest account.
