Complete Question:
Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.
Write an equation using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of x.
How far are Ava's feet from the balloon?
Answer:
Ava's feet is 17ft away from the balloon
Step-by-step explanation:
Given


The attached image represents the scenario
Using Pythagoras theorem (from the attachment), we have:



Take square roots of both sides


Answer:
48.75$
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the original price is 65$ and you are getting 25% off, you would now be paying 75% of the original price.
65*75%=48.75
_______________________________________________________
You could also take the amount of discount you're getting...
65*25%
and then subtract the amount of discount your getting from the original price
65-(65*25%) = 48.75
The sequence above is geometric progression.
The nth term of such sequence is given by;
Tn = ar∧(n-1),
Where a⇒first term and
r⇒common ratio
So, 1st term = 5×1.25∧(1-1) = 5×1.25∧0 =5
2nd term = 5×1.25∧(2-1) = 5×1.25 = 6.25
3rd term = 5×1.25∧(3-1) = 5×1.25² = 7.8125
4th term = 5×1.25∧(4-1) =5×1.25³ = 9.765625
5th term = 5×1.25∧(5-1) = 5×1.25∧4 = 12.20703125
6th term = 5×1.25∧(6-1) = 5×1.25∧5 = 15.25878909
Make use of prime factorizations:

Both terms have a common factor of
:

- - -
The second one is not true! We can write

Both terms have a common factor of
:

Since
, and
, we'd still have to show that
is a multiple of 6. This is impossible, because
and there is no multiple of 2 that can be factored out.
