Answer:
a) 14√5 feet
b) about 31.3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The 42-ft hose is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with one leg 28 ft. We are asked to find the other leg. The Pythagorean theorem is useful.
h² +(28 ft)² = (42 ft)²
h² = (1764 -784) ft² = 980 ft²
h = √(196·5) ft
h = 14√5 ft
__
b) The approximate height is ...
14√5 ≈ 31.305, about 31.3 feet
Remove the brackets
-5a + 9b + 7a combine -5a and 7a
7a - 5a + 9b
2a + 9b Answer
Don't go any further. There is nothing else to do. These are unlike terms and cannot be reduced or combined.
