Answer:
x = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
Two angles are complementary as the sum of two angles is 90
x + 24 + x = 90 {Combine like terms}
2x + 24 = 90 {Subtract 24 from both sides}
2x = 90 - 24
2x = 66
x = 66/2
x = 33

Answer:</h2>
The equation that is used to model the length of ladder in terms of x is:

<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
We can model this problem with the help of a right angled triangle whose hypotenuse is 13 meters and the other two legs are x meters and (x-7) meters.
where x is the distance between the top of the ladder and the ground.
and (x-7) is the distance between the foot of the ladder and the wall.
Hence, using Pythagorean Theorem we have:

Hence, the answer is:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract p on both sides.


Divide both sides by pr.


All you have to do is try both of the equations by filling in the variables with the choices.
-5 > -3 (2) + 3
-5 > -5 + 3
-5 > -2
-5 > (2) + 2
-5 > 4
So, this does not work.
--------------------------------------------
5 > -3 (-2) + 3
5 > 5 + 3
5 > 8
5 > (-2) + 2
5 > 0
So, this does not work.
-------------------------------------------
5 > -3 (2) + 3
5 > -5 + 3
5 > -2
5 > 2 + 2
5 > 4
So, this works.
-----------------------------
-5 > -3 (-2) + 3
-5 > 5 + 3
-5 > 8
-5 > (-2) + 2
-5 > 0
So, this does not work.
The answer would be C.
I hope this helps!
