The correct question is
<span>A 15-foot ladder is leaning against a house. the base of the ladder is 4 feet from the house. to the nearest tenth of a foot. </span>How high up the house does the ladder reach?

see the picture attached to better understand the problem

applying the Pythagoras Theorem
15²=4²+h²-----> h²=15²-4²-----> h²=225-16----> h=√209
h=14.46 ft------> h=14.5 ft

the answer is
14.5 ft

What the algebraic rule for a dilation with a scale factor of 3
Marianna [84]

Step-by-step explanation & answer:

When a dilation in the coordinate plane has the origin as the center of dilation, we can find points on the dilated image by multiplying the x and y coordinates of the original figure by the scale factor.

For example, if the scale factor is "k", the algebraic representation of the dilation is

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

For enlargements, k > 1 and for reductions, k < 1.

Hope this is what you needed:)

HELP I REALLY REALLY NEED THIS HELP MEE SUPER EZ 28 POINTS I REALLY NEED THIS I DONT REALLY CARE IF ITS WRONG AT LEAST YOU TRY ;
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

43. I'm not really sure about this one but here's what I got:

The average height of a 4th grader is 58 inches. (Maybe that'll help) Also if it's by the number of kids in the class....I would assume that there are at most 33 kids in the class....I'm not sure what it's asking...sorry :(

46. There are 8 total marbles so if you were selecting a green marble the probability of getting a green marble would be 3/8. If there are 2 blue marbles  then the probability would be 2/8 or 1/4

48. In a deck of cards there are 26 black cards and 26 red cards. Number of event occurrences. Total number of trials. For example, if a dice is rolled 6000 times and the number '5' occurs 990 times, then the experimental probability that '5' shows up on the dice is 990/6000 = 0.165. That should help with this one

49. Since there are 6 sides and each side is a number 1-6, the probability of rolling a six is 1:6

50. This one is easy if you read the question right. There are no pink marbles....

I'm not that great with graphs

I hope this helped a little....some of the questions I didn't understand.

Two fair dice are rolled at the same time. What is the probability that one die will show 3 and the other will show 4? A. 1/36
Olin [163]

Answer:

1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 numbers on a die. You have a 1/6 chance of rolling a 3 and a 1/6 chance of rolling a 4. 1/6 times 1/6 = 1/36.

Please help me, I’m<br> Dumb
vova2212 [387]

Answer: OPTION C

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the exercise shown in the image attached, you need to subtract the functions f(x) and g(x).

Keeping the above on mind, you have:

(f-g)(x)=2x^{2}+2-(x^{2}-1)

You must distribute the negative sign and then you must add the like terms, therefore, you obtain:

(f-g)(x)=2x^{2}+2-x^{2}+1\\(f-g)(x)=x^{2} +3
