To hang lights up on his house.Garrett place is a 14 foot ladder 4 feet from the base of the house. How high up the house will t
Mariulka [41]

This seems like a right triangle problem.

So assuming 14 feet is the hypotenuse and 4 feet is a leg of the right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem (a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}) to solve for the height of the house, in which we shall name it x.

So, the equation is 4^{2} +x^{2} =14^{2}.

Solve for x:

16+x^{2}= 196

x^{2}= 196-16

x^{2}= 180

x = 6√5 feet


Hope this helps!

Triss [41]
The concept that can be used in order to answer this item is that of man-days. The total number of man-days required to do the job should always be constant. 

This can be illustrated by the givens above.
Scenario 1: 
     N1 = (4 employees)(4 days) = 16 man-days

Scenario 2:
    N2 = (2 employees)(8 days) = 16 man-days

The equation for determining the value of e is equal to,
     k = (d)(e)

The answer is the second choice.
