1. A real world scenario could look something like this:
A ladder is resting against a straight wall. The distance from the top of the ladder to the bottom of the wall is 8m, while the distance from the base of the wall to the foot of the ladder is 6m. Find the length of the ladder.
2.That is the diagram for the real life example
3. Use pythagoras theorem to solve it
6^2+8^2=x^2
100=x^2
x=10
So the ladder is 10 m
Well if one inches equals 5 years just multiply 10 inches by 5. 10×5=50. ANSWER: 50 yards
Answer: About 800 thousand
The more accurate value is 807,528 but this is also an approximation.
=======================================================
Work Shown:
That's the rough population of wild pigs (in millions) for the year 2000.
Multiply by to get it in terms of units instead.
There were roughly 800 thousand wild pigs in the year 2000.
If y+6=15, then y=9. (9+6)divided by 3 would be 5, not 15.
