The length of the ladder is 25 feet.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Height of the House, h = 24 feet

Distance between the house and the ladder, b = 7 feet

length of the ladder, x = ?

The house makes 90° with the base of the ladder.

Using pythagoras  theorm,

x² = h² + b²

x² = (24)² + (7)²

x = √625

x = 25

Therefore, the length of the ladder is 25 feet.

Graph the following inequality. Then click to show the correct graph.<br><br><br>3x - 2y ≤ 6
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

We want to graph the inequality:

3x - 2y ≤ 6

The first step is to write this as a linear equation, to do it, we can isolate y in one side of the inequality.

3x  ≤ 6 + 2y

3x - 6  ≤ 2y

(3/2)x  - 6/2  ≤ y

(3/2)x  - 3  ≤ y

or:

y ≥ (3/2)x  - 3

Because we have the symbol ≥

The points on the line are solutions, then the first part is to graph the line:

y = (3/2)*x - 3

Next, we have:

y equal to or larger than  (3/2)*x - 3

Then we need to shade all the region above that line.

The graph can be seen below.
