Try to imagine this word problem, there is a wall and a ladder leaning against it, the space from the bottom of the ladder is labeled 6 and the length of the height the ladder reaches on the wall is 8. Imagine this as a right triangle now, where the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse and the length of the legs of the triangle is 6 and 8. Because we know this, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2
We then plug in the values and you get 6^2+8^2=c^2
When you simplify, you get 36+64=c^2 which is c^2=100
When you solve for c, you get c=10 which would be the length of the ladder :)
Answer:
a. I'm not sure if there's more to the question but I can't answer without knowing how many is the whole class
B. 12 boys
The ? is 1.
7*(9*1)=63
Hope this helps!!
<span>f(x) = x² + 4x
so
</span><span>f(-2) = (-2)² + 4(-2)
f(-2) = 4 - 8
f(-2) = -4
answer
-4</span>
