The answer is √91 feet (which is the same as 9.54 feet).
Imagine this as a right triangle. A length of the foot is actually a hypotenuse (c). The distance from wall's base to the ladder foot is one of the sides of the triangle (let it be a).
So, using the Pythagorean theorem:
c² = a² + b²
It is given:
c = 10 feet
a = 3 feet
b = ?
c² = a² + b²
⇒ 10² = 3² + b²
100 = 9 + b²
b² = 100 - 9 = 91
⇒ b = √b² = √91 ≈ 9.54 feet
Answer:
the y-intercept is (0,75)
Step-by-step explanation:
the y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Use a^2+b^2=c^2.
so u might have two answer one if u plug 17 and 12 as your a and b and solve for c
second is when you plug 12 as a and 17 as 17 qnd solve for b.
hope this helped

Step-by-step explanation:
1•5-2
5-2=3
The history museum is less that 9 4/5 miles. 9/10 means that the 9 3/4 mile is broken up into 10 equal parts and the distance to the museum is only 9 of those parts. 9 3/4 (9.8) divided by 10 equals 98/100 (.98)
98/100 x 9 = 882/100 or 8.82
Justin's house is 8.82 miles from the museum.
