Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
Where is the question? It’s 2(3)
<h2>22</h2>
In this problem, we need to use <u>multiplication</u> and <u>subtraction</u> method to solve it.
_________________________________
x(y) means to <u>multiply</u> x with y

Note that {a = 7} and {b = 6}
First, we need to multiply 4 with {a = 7}, we get:
4(7) = <em>28</em>
<em />
Then, we need to subtract {b = 6} from <em>28</em>, we get:
<em>28</em> – 6 = 22
Finally, this simplifies as:
4(7) – 6 = 22
