Answer:
Answer: x = 71 degrees. Yes, the ladder meets safety standards
Discussion:
The problem describes a right triangle with hypotenuse 12, the side against the ground is 4, and the angle between those two sides is "x". For this triangle,
cosx = (side adjacent to angle) / hypotenuse
= 4 / 12
= 1/3
To find "x" take the inverse cosine of each side to find that :
x is approximately 70.52 degrees. That's 71 degrees rounded to the nearest degree.

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
(m×1/3)-6=y
<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>
- Start with m as the unknown variable.
- Now multiple that by 1/3 to find that portion of m. (m×1/3)
- Lastly, subtract 6 and set the expression equal to y. (-6=y)
- Thus we get our final equation: (m×1/3)-6=y
Answer:
The value of y, when x = 48 is y = 12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
x is directly proportional to y
Where x > 0, y > 0
For x = 3. y = 5
Therefore, we have;
x ∝ a·y²
For ,x = 3, when y = 5, we have;
3 = a × 5² = 25·a
∴ a = 25/3
When x = 48, we have;
48 = 25/3×y²
y² = 3/25 × 48 = 144/25
y = √(144/25) = 12/5
y = 12/5
The value of y, when x = 48 is y = 12/5.
