First you'd change the 68 yards to 194 feet. then you would make the equation (3x-2)+(3x-2)+x+x=204 because the length is 2 feet less than 3 times the width (x). when you combine like terms it is 8x-4=204. then you'd move the -4 over to the 204 to make it 8x=208. x=26 feet. then you plug it back in time find the length is 76 feet.

A 20 ft. ladder is used against a 15 ft. wall. What is the measure of the angle made by the ladder and the ground (nearest whole
Brrunno [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The length of a ladder, H = 20 feet

The height of the wall, h = 15 ft

We know that,

\sin\theta=\dfrac{h}{H}

h is perpendicular and H is hypotenuse

So,

\sin\theta=\dfrac{15}{20}\\\\\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{15}{20})\\\\\theta=48.59^{\circ}

Now using Pythagoras theoerm,

b=\sqrt{H^2-h^2}\\\\b=\sqrt{20^2-15^2}\\\\b=13.2\ ft

Hence, the angle made by the ladder and the ground is 48.59° and the ladder is 13.2 feet from the wall on the ground.

Answer:

y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x -h):

y - [-1] = -1(x - 3), or

y + 1 = -x + 3, or

y = -x + 2
