Answer:

$x = \frac{60}{2.35}$ or $x = 25.531...$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Cross Multiply

$\frac{5}{2.35} = \frac{x}{12}$

$5(12) = 2.35(x)$

$60 = 2.35x$

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.35

$60 / 2.35 = 2.35x / 2.35$

$x = \frac{60}{2.35}$ or $x = 25.531...$

Answer: $x = \frac{60}{2.35}$ or $x = 25.531...$

Answer:

D. 144

Step-by-step explanation:

find the volume of the shipping container and divide it by the volume of a box.

$2\frac{2}{3}$ × $1$ × $2$ = $\frac{16}{3}$

$\frac{1}{3}$ × $\frac{1}{3}$ × $\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{1}{27}$

$\frac{16}{3}$ divided by $\frac{1}{27}$ is 144.

Can I get help on this please

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Hello!

I've attached the diagram.

For this problem, since you have a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to fine the length of the ladder (the hypotenuse of the triangle).

Pythagorean Theorem (where c is the hypotenuse):
a² + b² = c²

The triangle's leg lengths are 8 and 6; substitute into the theorem:
8² + 6² = c²

Simplify:
64 + 36 = c²
100 = c²
10 = c

Answer:
The length of the ladder is 10 m.

What is the area of the figure?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

5.4 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Figuring out the area of shapes like these are quite simple, you first have to break apart this shape to make solving this easier. If you draw a line and break off the triangle from the square you will get 2 different shapes. A square with all the sides being 2 inches, and a triangle that is 2 inches tall and 1.4 inches across (you subtract 3.4 by 2). Next you just use the equation (2 * 2) + ((1.4 * 2)/2). Multiply 2 by 2 (which is 4) and you get the area of the square (you multiply the base by the width). And for the triangle you multiple 1.4 by 2 (you get 2.8)... But because it's a triangle you have to divide that number by 2 since the triangle is half of a square. So 2.8 / 2 is going to be 1.4. After that you now have the equation 4 + 1.4 and the answer is going to be 5.4.
