It form a right triangle
legnth of ladder is hypotonuse
bottom of ladder from wall distance is one leg
distance up wall is other leg
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonuse and a and b are legs
4^2+b^2=20^2
16+b^2=400
minus 16 both sides
b^2=384
sqrt both sides
b=8√6 ft
aprox
b=19.59ft from ground
Answer:
y=-4x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
a line parallel to another line means the two lines have the same slope
so you can already cross out the second and last equation
the y-intercept is 9 so it is positive, not a negative 9
Answer:
D. x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root function is only defined for non-negative arguments. For the function ...

this means we must have ...
x +4 ≥ 0
x ≥ -4 . . . . . . subtract 4 from both sides
All of the numbers on your answer choice list are more than -4 except -5.
x = -5 is not in the domain of g(x)
Answer:
x = 13.5
y = 7
(13.5,7)
what the solution means is that (13.5,7) would be the point at which the two lines, x+y=20.5 and x-y=6.5, would intersect
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 20.5
x - y = 6.5
if we add the two equations we get:
2x = 27
x = 13.5
y = 20.5 - 13.5
y = 7
solution as an ordered pair:
(13.5,7)
What the solution means is that (13.5,7) would be the point at which the two lines, x+y=20.5 and x-y=6.5, would intersect
First you need to find the middle number, wich is 75. Since there is no $75, I would go with $80.
