We are given : $168 raised for washing 24 cars and $280 raised for washing 40 cars.
We know the rate formula.
Rate = Total amount ÷ Total numbers.
Let us find value of each rate for the given problem.
Rate 1: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $168 ÷ 24 = $7.
Rate 2: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $280 ÷ 40 = $7.
We can clearly see that Rate 1 is equal to Rate 2, that is $7.
So, we can say rates are equivalent.
This situation is a right triangle with the base measuring 18 and the hypotenuse 22. We are looking for x, the height up the pole that the wire is going to be attached to. We will use Pythagorean's Theorem to find the missing length.
and
. x^2 = 160 so x =
or 12.65 feet
