Mathematics
1 answer:
Nuetrik [128]1 year ago
5 0

Answer:

61.8 feet to nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

USING THE PYTHAGORAS THEOREM:

55*2 = 21^2 + h^2  where h is the height of the top of the ladder from the ground.

h^2 = 55^2 - 21^2

      =  2584

h = √2584

   =  50.83 ft.

So the height of the building

= 11 + 50.83

= 61.83 feet.

A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B. Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The scientist must use 10 ounces of Solution A and 40 ounces of Solution B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B, each containing salt, and she knows that Solution A is 40% salt and Solution B is 90% salt, and she wants to obtain 50 ounces of a mixture that is 80% salt, to determine how many ounces of each solution should she use the following calculation must be performed:

100 x 0.9 + 0 x 0.4 = 90

90 x 0.9 + 10 x 0.4 = 85

80 x 0.9 + 20 x 0.4 = 80

50 x 0.8 = 40

Therefore, the scientist must use 10 ounces of Solution A and 40 ounces of Solution B.

Hi guys pleas help me ;((
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

the first bullet, M+0.15m

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about it this way:

M is the total amount of money you pay for the meal.

0.15m is the tax calculation, 0.15 x M= a 15% tip

Because a tip means added money on top of the total cost of the meal, you have to add both of them together.
