Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so attached is a diagram of the triangle we are solving. Because buildings are almost always perpendicular (90 degrees) to the ground, it is a right triangle.
You can now use the pythagorean theorem with the sides to fill in the other side:
a^2+ b^2= c^2
5^2 + b^2= 22^2
25+b^2=484
b^2= 459
b=21.42
Okay, so for slope you need 2 points- think of the wall as your y axis, and the ground as your x axis. The ladder is the line.
Your first point is (-5,0) because the bottom of the ladder is touching the ground (no y movement) and the bottom of the ladder is 5 feet from the base of the wall and ground (origin).
The second point is going to be (0, 21.42) because that is the height of the wall where the ladder is touching (x is at origin). The 21.42 is positive, because you can't have negative height.
Okay so far? :)
(-5,0) and (0, 21.42)
(x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
slope= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope= (21.42-0)/ (0-(-5)) ---- becomes positive
slope= 4.284
(Note: slope could also be negative if you put the ladder on the other side of the wall- 5 would become positive... google "positive vs negative slopes" for more info)
Hopefully that answers your question!
There is 2 cups in a pint
So the pints would equal 5 cups
Add the 1/2 cup.
Therefore she drank 5 1/2 cups

Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Theoretical probability and Experimental probability are related in that theoretical probability is based on your reasoning (e.g. two sides; therefore, there is a 50% chance of heads), but experimental probability is where your numbers are based off of actual results (e.g. you landed head 1/4th of the time; therefore, there is a 25% chance of getting heads.)
Answer:
The system if equation that can be used to derive this are
6x + 4y = 69 AND
12x + y = 96
The price of a drink is $7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The question here says that Taylor and Nora went to the movie theater and purchase refreshments for their friends. Taylor spends a total of $69.00 on 6 drinks and 4 bags of popcorn Nora spends a total of $96.00 on 12 drinks and bag of popcorn.And we are now told to write a system of equations that can be used to find the price of one drink and the price of one bag of popcorn. Using these equations,we should determine and state the price of a drink, to the nearest cent .
Now, Let's assume that the price of a drink is "X" and that of a bag of popcorn to be Y
The first person made a purchase which led to the equation
6x + 4y = 69______ equation 1
And the second person also made a purchase that lead to the equation
12x + y = 96_____ equation 2
We make y the subject of the formula in equation 2 and apply it in 1
Y = 96 - 12x
Now apply the above in equation 1
6x + 4y = 69
6x + 4(96 - 12x)= 69
6x + 384 - 48x = 69
42x = 384 - 69
X = 315/42
X = 7.5
Substitute x= 7.5 in equation 2
12x + y = 96
12(7.5) + y = 96
90 + y = 96
Y = 6
Therefore, the price of a drink is $7.5
