Answer:

11.3137085 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The length (l) of the ladder is 18ft

The height (h) of the ladder from the ground is 14 ft

The distance (x) of the foot of the ladder to the bottom of the house is:

Applying the Pythagorean theorem:

x² = l² - h²

x = \sqrt{l^2 - h^2}

x = \sqrt{18^2 - 14^2} = 11.3137085 ft

Answer: a^2+b^2=c^2

Step-by-step explanation: (18^2=14^2+c^2)=324=196+c^2

324-196=128 and the square root of 128 is 8 radical 2 or in decimal form 11.31

For the following exercises, determine whether the functions are even, odd, or neither.

Answer:

The solutions of the equation |2 x-3|=17

are x=10

and x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations is |2 x-3|=17.

It is required to find out the values of x satisfying the given equation.

To find it out, use the fact that the solution of this type of equation is 2x-3=17.

Or 2x-3=-17 and simplify the equations using simple mathematical operations.

Step 1 of 2

Solve the equation 2x-3=17,

Add 3 on both sides of the equation 2x-3=17,

2x-3+3=17+3

2x=20

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation 2x=20,

$$\begin{aligned}&\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{20}{2} \\&x=10\end{aligned}$$

Step 2 of 2

Solve the equation 2x-3=-17,

Add 3 on both sides of the equation 2x-3=-17,

$2 x-3+3=-17+3$\\ $2 x=-14$

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation 2x=-14,

$$\begin{aligned}&\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{-14}{2} \\&x=-7\end{aligned}$$
