Answer:

11.4018 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder, wall and floor together form a right triangle with the length of the ladder being the hypotenuse, the distance of the foot of the ladder from the wall being one of the shorter sides and the distance between the top of the ladder and the floor being the other side

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse given the two sides

The general formula is:

c = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}

where c is the hypotenuse and a and b the other two sides

Substituting a = 7 and b = 9 gives:

c = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}\\\\c = \sqrt{7^{2} + 9^{2}}\\\\c = \sqrt{49 + 81}\\\\c = \sqrt{130}\\\\c = 11.4018

So length of ladder = 11.4018 meters

Answer:

11.40

Step-by-step explanation:

in a right angle triangle

the distance from the wall is the adjacent

the height of the wall is the opposite.

using Pythagoras theorem, hypotenuse²= opposite²+adjacent²

hypotenuse²= 7²+9²=49+81=130

hypotenuse=✓130=11.4

elena55 [62]

Answer:

89 is  the maximum number of guests that can be invited within budget  .

Step-by-step explanation:

The cleaning charges = $55

Total budget available = $3350

Cost per guest = $37

Now, actual budget available for guest = Total budget -  Cleaning Fee

= $3350  - $ 55   = $3,295

Now, cost per head =$ 37

So, number of guests (n) possible in the budget

⇒ n = (Total guest Budget)/ Cost per head

= $3,295 / $37  = $89.05

or,  n = $89.05

So, 89 is  the maximum number of guests that can be invited within budget  .

What value for x will make the equation true?
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

C . 4

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1 : -3 multiply with inside of the ( 7x-5 )

= -21x + 15

step 2 : then it will be 21x + 15 = 87 + 3x

step 3 : switch between the odds into like this

21x - 3x = 87 - 15

step 4 : subtract it all

18x = 72

step 5 : bring 18 to the other side

x = 72/18

step 6 : to find the ans of x is just calculate them

x = 72 ÷ 18

= 4

Or you can do like these ⬇️

-3 ( 7x - 15 ) = 87 + 3x

21x + 15 = 87 + 3x

21x - 3x = 87 - 15

18x = 72

x = 72/18 or 72÷18

x = 4
