Answer:
9 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of hours.
We have been given that after a winter storm, the depth of the snow on cherry street was 10 cm. Then, the snow started melting at a rate of
, so the snow melted in x hours will be
.
Since initially there was 10 cm of snow, so the depth of snow after x hours will be:

To find the depth of snow after 3 hours we will substitute
in our expression.



Therefore, the depth of the snow on cherry street after 3 hours will be 9 cm.
Answer:
≈ 35.1 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The model is a right triangle with ladder being the hypotenuse and the angle between the ground and the ladder is 70°
Using the cosine ratio, with l being the length of the ladder.
cos70° =
=
( multiply both sides by l )
l × cos70° = 12 ( divide both sides by cos70° )
l =
≈ 35.1 ( to the nearest tenth )
The ladder is approx 35.1 ft long
L=25
If the length is 25 yards then you use 50 yards of fencing for the length, this leaves ten yards for each width of fencing each.
10 yards is 15 yards less than 25 yards showing that this is the correct answer.
2 petunias leave $6.50 on her wallet, and 8 leave $5.00. This means that 6 petunias cost $1.50, and that 1 petunia costs 25 cents.
.25 goes into 3.50 (the amount of money she has left in her wallet after buying 14 petunias) 14 times. 14 + 14 =28.
Ying Ying can buy 28 petunias at most.
