Answer: 8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a right triangle and label the sides using the given information. (Drawing below) Use pythagorean theorem to find the missing length:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(building)^2 + (missing piece)^2 = (ladder)^2
6^2 + x^2 = 10^2
36 + x^2 = 100. subtract 36
x^2 = 64. square root of both sides
x = 8
Answer:
Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
28 would be, or as it’s multiplied by 17, it would be 476
The probability that both specific qualified applicants will be among the eight selected is given by:
The probability that the two will get apartments on the North side is given by:
The probability that the two will get apartments on the South side is given by:
The events '2 apartments on North side' and '2 apartments on South side' are mutually exclusive. Therefore the probability the two specific qualified applicants will be on the same side of town is 0.107 + 0.357 = 0.464.
Finally, the probability that two specific qualified applicants will be selected for apartments on the same side of town is found from:
Assuming 5a3 equals 5a^3, and the same for everything else, you would plug in 4 for a, so 5(4)^3 - 2(4)^2 + 4 - 45, which equals 247.
