This is the concept of trigonometry, the distance from the foot of the ladder will be given by:
tan theta=[opposite]/[adjacent]
opposite=17 ft
adjacent=x ft
theta=37°
thus
tan 37=17/x
x=17/tan 37
x=22.56 ft
=22.6 ft (to the nearest 10th of a foot)

I need help. The units of the definite integral are the units of the x-axis times the y-axis. So in a velocity (m/s) versus time
enyata [817]

Explanation:

The average value of the velocity function is the height of the rectangle that has the same area as the velocity curve. That height is still measured in m/s.

If you want to find distance traveled (in m), then you must multiply the height in m/s by the width in s.

sveta [45]

Answer:

at least 20 rows.

Step-by-step explanation:

when you add the students, teachers, and chaperones, it comes to 159. then you divide 159 by the number of seats each row has, so 159/8 = 19.875, you would have to round to the nearest whole number so 20 should be correct.
