Monica [59]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangular prism has four parallel edges along its length, four parallel edges along its width, and four parallel edges along its height.

We want to know how many different pairs of parallel edges there are. Starting with the length, the number of unique pairs is:

₄C₂ = 6

The same is true for the width and height. So the total number of different pairs of parallel edges is:

3 × 6 = 18

Keegan leans an 18-foot ladder against the top of a wall. The bottom of the ladder is 4.5 feet from the base of the wall. What i

zaharov [31]

Answer: C. 17.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached photo shows the triangle ABC formed by the ladder and the wall. It is a right angle triangle because one of its angles is 90 degrees. The ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle. To determine the height of the wall, we would find BC by applying Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent^2

18^2 + 4.5^2 + BC^2

BC^2 = 324 - 20.25 = 303.75

BC = √303.75 = 17.5 feet.

NARA [144]

Answer:

4.46

Step-by-step explanation:

(11.5 + x) + 5% = 16.8

11.5 + x = 16.8 - 5%

x = (16.8 - 5% ) - 11.5

x = 15.96 - 11.5

x = 4.46
