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

During the regular season, a National Basketball Association team plays 82 games and a National Football League team plays 16 ga
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

NFL teams play 16 regular season games each year, NHL and NBA teams play 82, while MLB teams play 162-could invalidate direct comparisons of win percentages alone. As an example, the highest annual team winning percentage is roughly 87% in the NFL but only 61% in MLB and part (but not all) of that difference is undoubtedly tied to the shorter NFL regular season

The solution of the equation is  x=\frac{11}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify an equation of x

  • Simplify each side of the equation
  • Collect x in side and the numerical terms in the other side
  • Find the value of x

∵ The equation is 2x + \frac{1-x}{4}=3

- Multiply all terms of the equation by 4 to cancel the denominator

 of the 2nd term in the left hand side

∵ The equation is 4(2x) +4 (\frac{1-x}{4})=4(3)

∴ 8x + (1 - x) = 12

∴ 8x + 1 - x = 12

- Add like terms

∴ (8x - x) + 1 = 12

∴ 7x + 1 = 12

- Subtract 1 from both sides

∴ 7x = 11

- Divide both sides by 7

∴ x=\frac{11}{7}

The solution of the equation is  x=\frac{11}{7}
