Using the Pythagorean theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.
The length of the ladder would be the hypotenuse and the base away from the wall would be one side.
So now we have:
5.5^2 + b^2 = 9^2
Simplify:
30.25 + b^2 = 81
Subtract 30.25 from each side:
b^2 = 81 - 30.25
b^2 = 50.75
Take the square root of both sides:
b = √50.75
b = 7.123
Rounded to the nearest tenth of a foot = 7.1 feet.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
I think it is 5 + 2x
Answer:-6
to solve for slope, you have to do (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
in this problem, that turns into (-1-(-13))/(-2-0)
which is (-1+13)/(-2-0) which is 12/-2 which is -6, your answer
7
9×7 = 63
