Answer:

About 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since I'm assuming you need to find the height of the supporting wall, I recommend drawing a diagram to help you better visualize what it would look like, like in the attached diagram. You'll see that it forms a triangle, with leg lengths 4.5 and x and a hypotenuse length 11. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height of the supporting wall.

Hope this helps!

Help me pls! L need help with this

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

G. -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we want to distribute the 6 into q and 3.

6q + 18 = 2(q + 4)

Next distribute the 2 into q and 4.

6q + 18 = 2q + 8

Now the variable needs to be on one side of the equation. Subtract 2q from both sides.

4q + 18 = 8

Isolate the variable. Subtract 18 from both sides.

4q = -10

Divide 4 on both sides.

q = -10/4

We can now simplify this even further. Divide -10/4 by 2/2

q = -5/2

????A - k = w + v, for a

sladkih [1.3K]

A=w+v/-k or A=w+v+k, but I mostly recommend the first one, the -k is divided by both the w and v.
