By the Pythagorean theorem
50^2 = x^2 +(x +34)^2
2500 = 2x^2 +68x + 1156
x^2 +34x -672 = 0
(x -14)(x +48) = 0
x = 14 or -48
The distance from the wall to the base of the ladder is 14 ft.
_____
7-24-25 is a Pythagorean triple. The dimensions here are double those values. It can be handy to know a few of the Pythagorean triples, as that can let you write down the answers to problems without having to go through the equations.
OBAN

| STANRAER
172-------------------------------------112
To read this table you have to draw a vertical from OBAN downward aa horizontal line from the 1st value of STANRAER. The intersection point show the number of miles.
So there are 172 miles & the consumption is 8 mi/gal,. He needs 172/8 gal.
Cost number of gallons needed x price/ gallon
COST = (172/8) x 0.83
COST = (21.5) x 0.83 = 17.845 ≈ $17.85 (1st answer)

Answer:
is proved for the sum of pth, qth and rth terms of an arithmetic progression are a, b,and c respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the sum of pth, qth and rth terms of an arithmetic progression are a, b and c respectively.
First term of given arithmetic progression is A
and common difference is D
ie.,
and common difference=D
The nth term can be written as

pth term of given arithmetic progression is a

qth term of given arithmetic progression is b
and
rth term of given arithmetic progression is c

We have to prove that

Now to prove LHS=RHS
Now take LHS




![=\frac{[Aq+pqD-Dq-Ar-prD+rD]\times qr+[Ar+rqD-Dr-Ap-pqD+pD]\times pr+[Ap+prD-Dp-Aq-qrD+qD]\times pq}{pqr}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BAq%2BpqD-Dq-Ar-prD%2BrD%5D%5Ctimes%20qr%2B%5BAr%2BrqD-Dr-Ap-pqD%2BpD%5D%5Ctimes%20pr%2B%5BAp%2BprD-Dp-Aq-qrD%2BqD%5D%5Ctimes%20pq%7D%7Bpqr%7D)




ie., 
Therefore
ie.,
Hence proved
Add 13 to both sides, which leaves you with k=42.
