ANSWER:
2.33 foot
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
We can calculate the distance from the staircase to the wall, by means of the trigonometric cosine ratio, which is the following:

Replacing and solving for x:

The distance would be 2.33 foot
Answer:
a) 5units
b) (4.5, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the coordinate of P and Q be P(3, 2) and Q(6, 6)
PQ can be gotten using the distance formula;
PQ =√(6-2)²+(6-3)²
PQ = √4²+3²
PQ =√16+9
PQ =√25
PQ = 5units
Midpoint M is expressed as;
M(X, Y) = {(x1+x2)/2, y1+y2/2}
X = x1+x2/2
X = 3+6/2
X= 9/2
X = 4.5
Similarly;
Y = y1+y2/2
Y = 2+6/2
Y = 8/2
Y = 4
Hence the midpoint of PQ is (4.5, 4)
Answer:
1.7j - 3.4 = 1.7(j - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that both 1.7 and -3.4 are evenly divisible by 1.7:
1.7j - 3.4 = 1.7(j - 2)
There are two ways to list the angles:
1) Simply name them based on the points:
∠W , ∠X , ∠Y , ∠Z
2) The way that I believe that you are supposed to list them in this case. List them as such:
∠WYZ , ∠YZX , ∠ZXW , ∠XWY

You save 5 cents per ounce by using the 40 ounce jar, because if you do $5.20 divided by 40 it equals $0.13 but if you do $2.70 divided by 15 it equals $0.18 which is 5 more cents the the 40 ounce
