A 25-foot ladder leans against a house. The bottom of the ladder is 7 feet from the house.

1 answer:

8 0

It makes a 74 degree angle.

The sides of the triangle that are given are the side adjacent to the angle the ladder makes with the ground and the hypotenuse of the triangle.

adjacent/hypotenuse is the ratio for cosine:

cos x = 7/25

To solve this, we will take the inverse cosine:

x = cos⁻¹(7/25) = 73.7 = 74

A number is decreased by 40% to 525. what is the original amount?

zhenek [66]

Answer:

875

Step-by-step explanation:

lets assume the original amount X

the new amount = X - ( X × 40% )

525 = (60 × X) ÷ 100

X = ( 525 × 100 ) ÷ 60

X = 875

2 and 4 seemed really confusing , please help :(

artcher [175]

2. This question is basically asking you to factor 6x² - x - 12, so that one bracket is (2x - 3) and the other bracket is your answer. If you do factor 6x² - x - 12, you get (2x - 3)(3x + 4), so your answer would be J. 3x + 4.

4. Again you are factoring, so you would get your answer as (x + 3)(x - 2), which is answer F.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you would like me to show you how I factored :)
