Answer:

(i) no, remainder is 6

(ii) no, remainder is 6

(iii) yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is divisible by 9 when the sum of its digits is divisible by 9. (The process of computing the sum of digits is called "casting out 9s".) You can basically treat any 9 as though it were 0.

(i) 3+9+4+6+8+3 = 33, 3+3 = 6. The remainder from division by 9 is 6. 9 is not a factor.

(ii) 1 + 8 + 7 + 2 + 5 + 4 + 6 = 9 + 9 + 9 + 6 = 33, 3+3 = 6. The remainder from division by 9 is 6. 9 is not a factor.

(iii) 5 + 1 + 7 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 4 = 6 + 9 + 3 + 9 = 27 = 3×9. This is divisible by 9, so the number is divisible by 9. 9 is a factor.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the building and the ground. The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height, h from the top of the ladder to the base of the house represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

The distance from the foot of the ladder to the base of the house represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

To determine the height, h that the ladder reaches, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

15² = 9² + h²

225 = 81 + h²

h² = 225 - 81 = 144

h = √144 = 12 feet
