Let me set an example to help solve this, say the poster is 100 inches by 90 inches. the length of the poster is reduced by 12% so subtract 12 from 100 to get you new length of 78 inches. the width is increased by 15% so multiply 90 by 15% to get 13.5 inches and add the to the 90 inches you have to get your new width of 103.5 inches. multiply them together to get your new area then divide the new area by the old area, subtract that number by 1 and multiply it by -1.

A ladder is leaning against the side of a building. The
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the situation above, it forms into a right triangle. Therefore we can apply the Pythagorean Theorem. We will use the formula below:

c = √( a² + b²)

In the problem above, the ladder acts as the hypotenuse denoted by c. It has a length of 20 ft. While the base denoted by b is 12 ft. Therefore, we need to solve for a. We will derive the formula above.

c² = a² + b²

a² = c² - b²

a = √( c² - b² )

a = √( 20² - 12² )

a = 16

The unit is in ft.

Correct me if I'm wrong. I hope it helps.

The common difference is the constant value which is repeatedly added to each term in an arithmetic sequence to obtain the next term​, it is basically the difference between consecutive numbers

To find the common difference we can subtract the previous term from the first time or the second to the last term from the last term, the idea of finding the common difference is basically subtracting the previous term form the subsequent term.
