It form a right triangle
legnth of ladder is hypotonuse
bottom of ladder from wall distance is one leg
distance up wall is other leg
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonuse and a and b are legs

4^2+b^2=20^2
16+b^2=400
minus 16 both sides
b^2=384
sqrt both sides
b=8√6 ft
aprox
b=19.59ft from ground

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeremiah bought x toy sets for $20 each and then a video game for $60. Jeremiah spent a total of $220. How may toy sets did he buy?

To find our answer, we can solve the equation:

20x + 60 = 220

        -60    -60

20x = 160

/20    /20

x = 8

Jeremiah bought 8 toy sets!

I hope this helps :)

Toby buys packs of 12 racing cars for R49,99 and sells each racing car for R10 at school
Ratling [72]

Answer:

1.1  R5.83

1.2 R70.01

1.3 58.34%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that he buys a pack of 12 racing cars  for  R49,99 then the unit cost for a car which is the total cost divided by the number of cars in a pack

= R49,99/12

= R4.17

If each car is sold for R10 then the profit made on each car which is the difference between the cost and the selling price

= R10 - R4.17

= R5.83

The profit margin on one pack of 12 racing cars

Profit margin is the ratio of the profit to the total selling price

The total profit (profit on one pack of 12 racing cars)

= R5.83 * 12

=R70.01

Total selling price = R10 * 12

=R120

Margin = R70.01 / R120

= 58.34%
