Step 1
<u>First situation</u>
when a ladder is leaning against a wall
Let
x-------> the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall
L-------> the length of the ladder
<u>Find the length of the ladder</u>
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem
------> equation 
Step 2
<u>Second situation</u>
when the ladder will be lying flat on the ground
<u>Find the length of the ladder</u>
In this situation the length of the ladder is equal to

square both sides
------> equation 
Step 3
equate equation
and equation 

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the length of the ladder is

Answer:
The answer is yum yum fruit ! Work is shown below :)
Answer:
A. (−3,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The rule for dilation by scale factor k is given by:

The given point is P(-3,5) and the scale factor is k=1
We substitute the point and the scale factor into the rule to get:

This gives us:

The correct answer is A
Answer:
B. 1,500’
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
dimension of the rectangular house, = 35’ x 40’
The actual total linear footage of lumber needed = 35’ x 40’ = 1,400'
The rough estimate should be greater than the actual estimate in 100s;
rough estimate = 1,400' + 100' = 1,500'
Therefore, the rough estimate of the total linear footage of lumber needed is 1,500'.
