Step-by-step explanation:
having denominator 6,
X/6= 2/3
X= 4
so, 4/6= 2/3
having numerator 10,
10/X= 2/3
X= 15
so, 10/15= 2/3
It should be 12 ft away from the wall. Not 4 ft. You do not just subtract the difference because as you pull it away from the wall, the ladder is mostly moving horizontally with only a small vertical change.
You can use Pythagorean Theorem to find the answer. Think of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the wall and the ground as the legs.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
16^2 + b^2 = 20^2
b^2 = 20^2 - 16^2
b^2 = 144
b = 12 ft
Answer:
b. 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
(new - old)/ old * 100%
150 - 120 = 30 ... 30/120 = .25 * 100% = 25%
S + a = 722
s = 72 + a
(72 + a) + a = 722
2a + 72 = 722
2a = 722 - 72
2a = 650
a = 650/2
a = 325 <== adults
s = 72 + a
s = 72 + 325
s = 397 <== students
