Answer:

You can use the Pythagoren Theorem:

Ladder distance ² = hypotenuse ² - height ²

Ladder distance ² = 65 ² - 16 ²

Ladder distance ² = 4,225 -256

Ladder distance ² = 3,969

Ladder distance = 63 feet

Melinda and Marcus are saving money to purchase a present for a friend. Each friend starts with an amount and also saves a speci
Goshia [24]
Let's find the rates at which Melinda and Marcus are saving money and compare them. 
Based on the table, we can see that Melinda originally had $75. Then she got $135 in 5 weeks.  So the rate of saving money is (135–75)/5 = $12 per week.
This rate is unchanged for the next weeks. As we can see, she got $195 in the next 5 weeks. So she saved $60 more those 5 weeks, or the rate is $60/5 = $12 per week again. 

So Melinda saved $12 per week.
As for Marcus, the equation tells us that the rate of saving money is $14 which is the coefficient in front of x.

Hence, t<span>he rate at which Melinda is adding to her savings each week is 2$
less than the rate at which Marcus is adding to his savings each week.</span>

True.

E.g. (x-1)(x-2) versus 100(x-1)(x-2)

They have same roots of x= 1 or 2, but the second equation is 100 times stretching of the first one vertically
