socks. the lights are out, and you're in a rush to leave. what is the smallest number of socks you should pull out so that you can be assured that you will have at least one pair of matching socks? note that there are no left or right socks and two socks of the same color will be considered matching.

5 pairs of black socks*2 because it’s a pair= 10 socks
4 pairs of grey socks*2=8
2 pairs of white socks*2=4
1 pair of brown socks*2=2
1 pair of blue socks*2=2
10 socks+8 socks+4 socks+2 socks+ 2 socks=26 socks in total
26/2=13+1 because you need to be sure you get one pair of socks. The smallest amount of socks you would have to grab to get at least one matching pair is 14 socks.

Find the value of X <br><br>Anyone think they can help me with this?
ratelena [41]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment that is x units long is the midsegment of the largest triangle. The midsegment is half as long as the line parallel to the midsegment. It is half as long as the 30 unit long segment.

Note how the vertical sides (marked with the double tickmarks) are congruent to one another. The smaller pieces are both the same length, so they combine to something twice as big. Go in reverse: one segment with a pair of double tickmarks is exactly half as long as the entire vertical side. The same can be said about the horizontal sides as well.

The proper angle for a ladder is about 75 ∘ 75∘ from the ground. suppose you have a 14 foot ladder. how far from the house shoul
jonny [76]
We just use the sinus rule to calculate this

a / sin alpha = b / sin beta

Alpha is the 90 degree angle from the wall to the floor
beta is the angle from the top of the ladder to the wall,
wich is 90 degrees - 75 degrees (triangle has 180 degrees angles, one is 90 degrees), so beta = 15 degrees

14 foot / sin 90 = b / sin 15
sin 90 = 1
we move the sin15 over to the other side

14 foot x sin 15 = b
b = 3.62 foot
