Change the inches into feet. There are 12 inches in a foot so divide 144 by 12. That gives you 12, so then multiply 12 by 14. You are left with 168 feet.
For this problem, you're going to need to use trig. More specifically, you need to use the tangent function:
tan (value) = opposite/adjacent
tan 75 = opposite/8 (Here, the opposite side is the length of the ladder)
8 * tan 75 = opposite
29.8564065 = opposite
So, the ladder is 29.9 feet.
Answer:
750 students
Step-by-step explanation:
30/40 = 75%
75% of 1000
= 750
The answer should be 1546.3 after its worked out.
Hello there!
The first thing you must do is to find the slope of the line. To do this, find the negative reciprocal of your current equation. Since your current slope is 3, the negative reciprocal of that would be -1/3, which would be your slope.
Now that you have your slope, plug it into the slope intercept equation as well as your known points:
(1,8) m(slope)=-1/3
8=1(-1/3)+b
Now, solve for b:
8=1(-1/3)+b
8=-1/3+b
b=25/3
Now that you have the slope and the b value, you can conclude that your equation would be:
y=-1/3x+25/3
