The distance from the base of the ramp to the base of the sofa rounded to the nearest tenth is 47.3 inches.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

According to the diagram, length of the ramp is, AC= 55 inches. The top of the seat cushion is 28 inches above the floor. That means, BC=28 inches

We need to find the distance from the base of the ramp to the base of the sofa which is AB

In right angle triangle ABC, using Pythagorean theorem...

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2\\ \\ (55)^2= AB^2 + (28)^2 \\ \\ AB^2 = (55)^2 - (28)^2 \\ \\ AB^2 = 3025 - 784\\ \\ AB^2 = 2241\\ \\ AB = \sqrt{2241}= 47.3

So, the distance from the base of the ramp to the base of the sofa rounded to the nearest tenth is 47.3 inches.

Which equation shows an example of the associative property of addition?
Nat2105 [25]

The associative property states that we can regroup the terms of an expression and obtain the same result.

We have then:

a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c

The expression that complies with this property is given by:

(-4 + i) + 4i = -4 + (i + 4i)

Answer:

An equation that shows an example of the associative property of addition is:

a. (- 4 + i) + 4i = -4 + (i + 4i)
