The answer is (5,4). X being the run (5), and Y being the rise (4).
The tenth place will be the number right after the decimal "." You have to look at the number behind the 7 to see if the 7 will stay at 7 or if it will round up to 8. Since 5 means you round up, you round the 7 to an 8, giving you:
3.8
Redued by 15%
orignal=100%
decrease by 15%=100%-15%=85%
find 85% of original
orignal=15 feet
85% of 15=0.85 times 15=12.75 feet
answer is B
So, this creates a triangle once again. If we imagine a slide, the slide itself would be the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if there's a ladder leading up to the slide, that would be the vertical length we're looking for. The feet across the ground would be the distance from the bottom of the slide to the bottom of the ladder.
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side length, as this would create a right triangle. | 8^2 + b^2 = 10^2 | 64 + b^2 = 100 | b^2 = 36 | b = 6 feet | The slide is 6 feet high at its highest point.
