Since you have the hypotenuse (5) and the adjacent side (1.8) all you have to do is find out what squared times 1.8 squared equals 5 squared. the formula for this is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Now to figure this out you can do 5^2 which equals 25. 
Then you do 1.8^2 which equals 3.24. then you subtract the two and get 21.76.
if you find the square root of 21.76 you will get 4.6647.
4.6647 is the distance of how far up the wall the ladder reaches.

Company A manufactures and sells gidgets. The owners have determined that the company has the monthly revenue and cost functions
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Option A.  356 gidgets

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

R(x) ----> the monthly revenue function

C(x) ---> the monthly cost function

x ----> the number of gidgets sold

R(x)=16x

C(x)=12x+1,424

we know that

Break-even means that the revenue equals cost

so

16x=12x+1,424

solve for x

16x-12x=1,424

4x=1,424

x=356\ gidgets
