A 14-foot ladder is leaning against the side of a house.The angle the ladder makes with the ground is 50 degrees. How far is the

base of the ladder from the house to the nearest tenth of a foot

Answer:

9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use cosine to solve this, which is adjacent over hypotenuse. The ladder forms a triangle with the house, and the side you need to solve for is adjacent to the angle. You can set up the equation:

cos(50)=x/14

Then you multiply 14 by cos(50) and get almost 9 ft (rounding to the nearest tenth of a foot).

Answer:

The volume of the fish tank is 48000 cubic centi meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a Cuboid is l*b*h (length*breadth*height)

Here,

length(l) =60 cm

breadth(b)= 20 cm

height(h)=40 cm

Volume=l*b*h

Volume= 60cm*20cm*40cm

Volume= 48000 cubic centimeter

Please help me ASAP!!! could someone help me do my geometry?

Answer:

9. m(YZ) = 102°

10. m(JKL) = 192°

11. m<GHF = 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

9. First, find the value of x

4x + 3 = 3x + 15 (inscribed angle that are subtended by the same arc are equal based on the inscribed angle theorem)

Collect like terms

4x - 3x = -3 + 15

x = 12

4x + 3 = ½(m(YZ)) (inscribed angle of a circle = ½ the measure of the intercepted arc)

Plug in the value of x

4(12) + 3 = ½(m(YZ))

48 + 3 = ½(m(YZ))

51 = ½(m(YZ))

Multiply both sides by 2

51*2 = m(YZ)

102 = m(YZ)

m(YZ) = 102°

10. First, find the value of x.

7x + 5 + 6x + 6 = 180° (opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary)

Add like terms

13x + 11 = 180

13x = 180 - 11

13x = 169

x = 169/13

x = 13

7x + 5 = ½(m(JKL)) (inscribed angle of a circle = ½ the measure of the intercepted arc)

Plug in the value of x

7(13) + 5 = ½(m(JKL))

96 = ½(m(JKL))

Multiply both sides by 2

2*96 = m(JKL)

m(JKL) = 192°

11. First, find x.

5x + 15 = ½(11x + 18) (inscribed angle of a circle = ½ the measure of the intercepted arc)

Multiply both sides by 2

2(5x + 15) = 11x + 18

10x + 30 = 11x + 18

Collect like terms

10x - 11x = -30 + 18

-x = -12

Divide both sides by -1

x = 12

m<GHF = 5x + 15

Plug in the value of x

m<GHF = 5(12) + 15

m<GHF = 60 + 15

m<GHF = 75°

Mrs. Lobo earns a salary of $50,000 per year plus a 4% commission on her sales. The average price of a share
dem82 [27]

Answer:

a) 50,000 + 2x > 70,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Lobo has an annual salary of $50000 per year plus 4% commission on her sales.

If she makes $y commission from sales, Mrs Lobo total income per year is:

$50000 + $y.

She makes 4% commission on her sales of share with the average price of a share = $50

Average commission from sales = 4% × $50 = 0.04 × 50 = $2

If she sales x shares in a year, her commission would be $2x for the year. Therefore her total income for that year would be:

50000 + 2x

The amount of shares Mrs Lobbo must sell to make an annual income of at

least $70,000 is given by the inequality:

50,000 + 2x > 70,000
