Answer:

78,732

Step-by-step explanation:

a_1 = 4

a_2 = 12

a_2/a_1 = 12/4 = 3

a_1 = 4

a_2 = 4 * 3 = 4 * 3^1 = 12

a_3 = 4 * 3 * 3 = 4 * 3^2 = 36

a_n = 4 * 3^(n - 1)

For n = 10:

a_10 = 4 * 3^(10 - 1) = 4 * 3^9 = 4 * 19,683 = 78,732

The base of a 13 foot ladder is 5 feet away from the wall. How far up the wall does the ladder reach? A)8 feet B)10 feet C)12 fe
Lisa [10]

You are solving for the height. Use the formula:

c² - b² = a²      in which c = hypotenuse

(13)² - (5)² = a²

Simplify

169 - 25 = a²

144 = a²

Isolate the a. Root both sides

√144 = √a²

a = √144

a = √(12 x 12)

a = 12

C) 12 feet is your answer
