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

Factor complete −2x2 + 10x.
mezya [45]

The factors of the quadratic equation is (x + 1) and (x - 6)

Given,

The quadratic equation; -2x² + 10x + 12

We have to find the factors of this equation using quadratic formula;-

Quadratic formula;- \frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}

Here,

a = -2, b = 10 and c = 12

Now,

\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} = \frac{-10(+-)\sqrt{10^{2} -4 . -2. 12} }{2.-2} = \frac{-10(+-)\sqrt{100 +96} }{-4} = (-10±14) ÷ -4

Solve for,

- 10 + 14 / -4 = -4/4 = -1

That is, (x + 1)

Solve for,

- 10 - 14 / -4 = -24/-4 = 6

That is,  (x - 6)

Therefore, the factors for the given quadratic equation is (x + 1) and (x - 6)

Mary Ann needs 3/7 cup of sugar to bake a cake she has 3/5 cup does she have enough to bake the cake yes or no
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Mary Ann does have enough sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 is greater than 3/7 which means that she does have enough sugar. This is because the denominator 5 is smaller than the denominator 7, and since they have the same numerator, the fraction with the smaller denominator is greater.

yarga [219]
Turn phrases into mathmatical expressions:

"<span>one side(s) twice the length of the shortest side(x)" = 2x
"</span><span>the third side(t) is 30 feet more than the length of the shortest side " = x+30
</span>Shortest side= x

Perimeter= side1+ side 2 + side 3
138ft= x+2x+x+30
138= 4x+30
108=4x
x= 27 feet

Answer: 
The shortest side is 27ft. The middle side 2x= 2(27)= 54ft. The longest side being x+30= 27+30= 57ft.
