Given:
The base of 40-foot ladder is 8 feet from the wall.
To find:
How high is the ladder on the wall (round to the nearest foot).
Solution:
Ladder makes a right angle triangle with wall and ground.
We have,
Length of ladder (hypotenuse)= 40 foot
Base = 8 foot
We need to find the perpendicular to get the height of the ladder on the wall.
Let h be the height of the ladder on the wall.
According to the Pythagoras theorem,





Taking square root on both sides.


Height cannot be negative. Round to the nearest foot.

Therefore, the height of the ladder on the wall is 39 foot.
Answer: y-4=-3(x+4) or y=-3x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of the line with a given point and slope, we can fill them into the point-slope formula. The point-slope formula is y-y₁=m(x-x₁).
y-4=-3(x-(-4)) [multiply]
y-4=-3(x+4)
Another equation could be slope-intercept form. It is y=mx+b.
y-4=-3(x+4) [distribute]
y-4=-3x-12 [add both sides by 4]
y=-3x-8
Now, we know that the equation is y=-3x-8 or y-4=-3(x+4).
Answer:
63/100
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5,400,000
Step-by-step explanation:
E+ simply means "to the power of" So your question is 5.4*10^6 which would turn out as 5,400,000
