Answer:
39 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question;
let length of ladder =x feet
height of ladder will be=x-3 feet
ground distance of ladder bottom to building=15 feet
Applying Pythagorean relation
a²+b²=c²
where a=15 feet b=x-3 feet and c=x feet thus
x²-15²=(x-3)²
x²-225=x²-6x+9
collect like term
x²-x²-225-9=-6x
-234= -6x
x= 39 feet length of ladder
distance from ground to top of ladder= 39-3=36 feet
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
90 mm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
split into two rectangles.
First rectangle: 5 x 6 = 30 mm^2
Second rectangle: 10 x 6 = 60 mm^2
30 + 60 = 90 mm^2
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
- c(n) = 320·0.96^n
- 28 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Each year, the class size is multiplied by 1 - 4% = 96% = 0.96. After n years, it has been multiplied by that number n times. Repeated multiplication is signified using an exponent.
Class size (c) can be modeled by ...
   c(n) = 320·0.96^n
__
You want to find n such that c(n) = 100. Put in that value and solve.
   100 = 320·0.96^n
   100/320 = 0.96^n . . . . . . . divide by 320
   log(100/320) = n·log(0.96) . . . . . . . take logs
   log(100/320)/log(0.96) = n ≈ 28.4932
In about 28 years, the class will have 100 students.
