let x be how far up the wall ladder reaches
by Pythagoras theorem
x^2+5^2=13^2
x^2 =(13^2)-(5^2)
x= square root of 144
x= 12 or x =-12(rej,x>0)
hence ladder reaches 12 foot up the wall
She will need to buy 3 more cookies because 2 dozens is 24. And 16 cookies plus 5 is 21 cookies plus 3 is a dozen cookies which is 24
24=16 chocolate cookies+5 peanut cookies+3 random cookies
Answer:
- dimensions: 12 ft by 5 ft
- area: 60 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the shorter dimension in feet. Then the longer one is x+7 and the Pythagorean theorem tells us the relation of these to the diagonal is ...
x² + (x+7)² = 13²
2x² +14x + 49 = 169 . . . . eliminate parentheses
x² +7x -60 = 0 . . . . . subtract 169 and divide by 2
(x +12)(x -5) = 0 . . . . factor the equation
x = -12 or +5 . . . . . . . only the positive value of x is useful here.
The short dimension is 5 ft, so the long dimension is 12 ft. The area is their product, 60 ft².

<em>Comment on finding the area</em>
The quadratic equation above can be rearranged and factored as ...
x(x +7) = 60
Since the dimensions of the garden are x and (x+7), this product is the garden's area. This equation tells us the area is 60. We don't actually have to find the dimensions.
