I think what u had chosed is correct so I didn't have any further explanation
Let the base of the ladder be x ft and the extension be y ft.
"when fully extended, a ladder is 28 feet in length."
means: x+y=28
"<span>the extension is 4 feet shorter than the base</span>"
means: y=x-4, that is x-y = 4, (taking y to the side of x, and -4 to the other side of x and y)
thus, we have the system of equations:
1) x+y= 28
2) x-y=4
adding the 2 equations, we have:
(x+y)+(x-y)=28+4
2x=32
x=32/2=16
x+y=28, so 16+y=28, thus y=12
Answer: Base: 16, Extension 12
Answer:
16%
Step-by-step explanation:
20/125 = 0.16
0.16 x 100 = 16% (multiply by 100 to get a percentage)
Answer:
2
litres or 2.5 litres
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, 9 fruit juice bottles contain 4 litres of fruit juice. Therefore, to find how many litres of fruit juice would be contained in 5 fruit juice bottles, you multiply 5 by 4 litres and you divide the product by 9.
i.e. Let the quantity of the fruit juice for 5 bottles be x.
9 juice bottles ===> 4 litres
5 juice bottles ===> x
∴x = 
x = 
x = 
x = 2.5 litres or 2 litres

Answer:
126807 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
P= Poe^ht
Where;
P= population at time t
Po= population at the beginning
h= growth constant
t= time
1998- 2008 is ten years.
110429= 100,000e^10h
1.1 = e^10h
ln(1.1) = lne^10h
0.095 = 10h
h= 0.0095
In 2023, t = 25 years
P= 100,000e^(0.0095 × 25)
P= 126807 people
