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.

What are the factors of the function represented by this graph?
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

option C. (x + 4) and (x − 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor is one of the linear expressions of a single-variable of the polynomial.

Given: y = (1/4)(x + 4)(x - 8)

When y = 0

∴ (1/4)(x + 4)(x - 8) = 0 ⇒ multiply both sides by 4

∴ (x + 4)(x - 8) = 0

So, the factors of the function are (x+4) and (x-8)

The answer is option C. (x + 4) and (x − 8)

Short answer:
25 inches is the perimeter of the larger rectangle



Long answer:
Imagine that you have a rectangle where every single side is 1 inch long. The total perimeter of the card is 4 inches, 1+1+1+1. The total perimeter is 4 inches.

Now imagine that you have a larger rectangle which is 1.25 times as wide and long as the smaller rectangle. In other words each side of the larger rectangle is 1.5 inches long. The perimeter of the larger card is 1.25+1.25+1.25+1.25. Because each 1 in the original equation was multiplied by 1.25. The perimeter of your larger rectangle is 5 inches.

Turn that into an equation. 5 inches equals 4 inches times 1.25. In other words, (larger rectangle perimeter) equals (smaller rectangle perimeter) times 1.25

Plug in numbers. You get (Larger rectangle perimeter) equals 20×1.25. Solve that and you get 25. 25 is the answer

Math sequences number patterns
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Note the squared value in column 3 which is the square of 1 more than the row number, that is

row 2 → (2 + 1)² →3²

row 3 → (3 + 1)² → 4²

Find the square root of 676 = 26 → (25 + 1)² = 26²

Hence the row number is 25

(b)

The pattern in column 1 is [ row number × (row number + 2 ) + 1 ]

row number is n then n(n + 2) + 1 = n² + 2n + 1

Peter spent (1/2)*x

Peter added 10

<em>Before adding more money on the gift card Peter had x -(1/2)x left on the gift card which is (1/2)x</em>

<em>After loading more money Peter had (1/2)x + 10</em>

(1/2)x = 40 <em>(money spent by Peter)</em>

x/2 = 40
