Answer:

The answer to your question is Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The math in this problem is that we need to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve it. Pythagorean theorem is part of trigonometry a branch of Maths.

Data

base = 9 ft                      

length = 37 ft

height = ?

Pythagorean theorem

                                     c² = a² + b²

length = c

base = a

height = b

                                   37² = 9² + b²

-Solve for b

                                    b² = 37² - 9²

-Simplify

                                    b² = 1369 - 81

                                    b² = 1288

-Result

                                   b = 35.88

-Conclusion

The ladder will reach a height higher than 35 ft.

Straight lines are 180 degrees and angle BCD is 110 degrees, and also AB and CB are the same which means 180-110=70 and 70 divided by 2 is 45 degrees so m angle A =45 degrees and m angle B= 90 degrees and ACB is 45 degrees

In a bolt manufacturing factory, machines 4, Band C produce 25%, 30% and 45% of
Ugo [173]

In the first 25% of the produce, 7% of that is defective. Which means that 25%*93% is not defective.

=20.75% not defective.

In the second 30% of the produce, 6% is defective Which means that 30%*94%

=28.2% not defective

Now for the 3rd 45% of the produce, 4% is defective which means that

45%*96%

=43.2% not defective.

Added together, 20.75+28.2+43.2=92.15% not defective.

A music website charges x dollars for individual songs and y dollars for entire albums. Person A pays $25.92 to download 6 indiv
kati45 [8]
Amount charged for downloading individual songs = x dollars
Amount charged for downloading an entire album = y dollars
In respect to person A:
6x + 2y = 25.92
3x + y = 12.96
y = 12.96 - 3x
In respect to person B:
4x + 3y = 33.93
Putting the value of y from the first equation in the second, we get
4x + 3(12.96 - 3x) = 33.93
4x + 38.88 - 9x = 33.93
- 5x = - 4.95
x = 0.99 dollars
Putting the value of x in the first equation, we get
y = 12.96 - 3x
   = 12.96 - 2.97
   = 9.99 dollars

Find the simple interest earned
Kitty [74]

Answer:

SI = $1,200 ; A = $6,200

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 5000 × 0.03 × 8 = 1200

I = $ 1,200.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 5,000.00

at a rate of 3% per year

for 8 years is $ 1,200.00.

The number which is express in each of the models as given in the image attached to the task content are as follows;

a). 1.37

b). 1.37

c). 1.37.

<h3>What numbers are expressed according to the given models in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the models describe that One flat represents 1 whole, One rod represents 1 tenth and one unit represents 1 hundredth.

It therefore follows from the task content that in each of the models, the algebraic sum of flat(s), rods and units as the case may be results in the value; 1.37 as the utmost number represented by the models.
