Tanα=h/x

x=h/tanα

x=70/tan38 ft

x≈89.6 ft (to nearest tenth of a foot)

Note: the question seems strange, (because this would make the ladder almost 114 feet long!) or are we to assume as I did that the ladder is leaning against a point 70 feet high, or should if be a 70 foot ladder leaning against a wall of unknown height?

If it is just a 70 ft ladder at a 38° inclination the:

cosα=x/L

x=Lcosα

x=70cos38° ft

x≈55.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

4 and 1/3 is equal (by doing 4*3+1)to 13/3 which is equal (by doing 13/3 *3/3)to 39/9 inches which according to the conversion is equal to 39ft

3 and 7/9 is equal (3*9+7)to 34/9 inches which when converted is 34ft

Find the residual values, and use the graphing calculator tool to make a residual plot. A 4-column table with 5 rows. The first
Svetlanka [38]

The best answer from the options that proves that the residual plot shows that the line of best fit is appropriate for the data is: ( Statement 1 ) Yes, because the points have no clear pattern

X         Given     Predicted     Residual value

1            3.5           4.06             -0.56

2           2.3           2.09             0.21

3            1.1            0.12               0.98

4           2.2           -1.85              4.05

5          -4.1            -3.82            -0.28

The residual value is calculated as follows using this formula: ( Given - predicted )

1) ( 3.5 - 4.06 ) = -0.56

2) ( 2.3 - 2.09 ) = 0.21

3) ( 1.1 - 0.12 ) = 0.98

4) (2.2 - (-1.85) = 4.05

5) ( -4.1 - (-3.82) = -0.28

Residual values are the difference between the given values and the predicted values in a given data set and the residual plot is used to represent these values .

attached below is the residual plot of the data set

hence we can conclude from the residual plot attached below that the line of best fit is appropriate for the data because the points have no clear pattern ( i.e. scattered )
