Assume ladder length is 14 ft and that the top end of the ladder is 5 feet above the ground.
Find the distance the bottom of the ladder is from the base of the wall.
Picture a right triangle with hypotenuse 14 feet and that the side opposite the angle is h. Then sin theta = h / 14, or theta = arcsin 5/14. theta is
0.365 radian. Then the dist. of the bot. of the lad. from the base of the wall is
14cos theta = 14cos 0.365 rad = 13.08 feet. This does not seem reasonable; the ladder would fall if it were already that close to the ground.

First we need to know how many months is 2 years. To answer that we multiply the number of months in a year by 2 and get 48 months.
Every 3 months the population of turtles doubles, but to get how many times the population doubles, you need to divide 48 months by 3 to get 16.
So population of 400 will get <u>doubled</u> 16 times in the following <u>two</u> years.
We construct the following equation where
is the final population,

Hope this helps. :)
Answer:
49 r. 3

the answer is 49 but since three can go into 148 evenly the remainder is 3
$20 because 10% of 40 is 10 and the price now is 40 so 2 years before would have been 20
The remainder to this question is 42
