Answer:

9.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the ladder is 15 ft

The ladder makes an angle of 52° with the ground

The distance (x) from the base of the house to the foot of the ladder is given by;

\frac{x}{15} = cos 52°

x = 15 × cos 52° = 9.23492213 ft

Which equals to 9.2 ft (rounded off to tenth of a foot)

The given options are:

  • (A)x+y = 20
  • (B)7 apps and 14 movies
  • (C)x-y= 20
  • (D)y=-x+ 20
  • (E)8 apps and 12 movies
  • (F)xy= 20

Answer:

  • (A)x+y = 20
  • (D)y=-x+ 20
  • (E)8 apps and 12 movies

Step-by-step explanation:

If Elizabeth has a combined total of 20 apps and movies.

Where:

Number of apps=x

Number of Movies =y

Then:

Their total,

  • x+y=20 (Option A)

If we subtract x from both sides

x+y-x=-x+20

  • y=-x+20 (Option D)

In Option E

8 apps and 12 movies  add up to 20. Therefore, this could also apply.
