Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
Answer:
$825.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the price of it is $960.00, it means that it's 100%.
100% = 960
1% = 960 ÷ 100 = 9.6
14% = 9.6 x 14 = 134.40
Since they asked for after the discount, deduct the price of the discount with the original price.
Mountain bike after 14% discount =
960 - 134.40 = 825.60
The volume is given by:
V = L * Apb * h
Where,
L: side of the base
Apb: apothema of the base
h: height
Substituting we have:
V = (4) * ((root (3) / 2) * 4) * (6)
Rewriting we have:
V = (4) * ((root (3) / 2) * 4) * (6)
V = 96 * (root (3) / 2)
V = 48 * root (3)
Answer:
V = 48 * root (3)
4x+6 = 5x-6
x=12
4(12)+6=54
The answer is 54 (The paper says C is 54, not 55)
