Answer:

12.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Its a pythagerous question question

so if the ladder is 8 feet from the wall the base is 8

and the ladder is 15 foot and is the hypotemuse

so 15^2-8^2=161^2

The root of 161 = 12.69 rounded to 2 dp

so 12.7

Answer:

12.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem.

The wall and ground are the legs. The ladder is the hypotenuse.

a² + b² = c²

8² + b² = 15²

b² = 225 - 64

b² = 161

b = √161 = 12.7

Answer: 12.7 ft

Using a property of operations, what can you say about the sums of (-13.2) 8.1 and 13.2 (-8.1)
artcher [175]
No matter where the negative sign is, the product will always be negative, so is the number itself.

13.2(-8.1)=-106.92

twice of that would be -213.84.

first do the multiplying, then the adding(the adding of negative numbers, so it would be basically subtracting).
