When you draw this out, what you have is a right triangle problem. The height of the rope from the ground is 12 (a side), the distance she is from the base of the tree is 5 (a side), and the length of the rope is the hypotenuse. Use Pythagorean's Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse: 5^2+12^2 = c^2 or
25+144 = c^2 and c^2 = 169, which makes the length of the rope come out to be 13 feet long.
<span>Let x=0.8888...
x=0.8888 Start with the given equation
10x=8.8888 Multiply both sides by 10. The goal is to move the decimal point to the next repeating portion (which is just one spot to the right)
Now subtract the equation x=0.8888 from 10x=8.8888 to get
10x-x=8.8888-0.8888
9x=8 Combine like terms. Notice how the decimal portions cancel out.
x=8/9 Divide both sides by 9 to isolate x
So the answer is x=8/9 which means that 8/9=0.8888 (where the 8's repeat)</span>
Answer: f(5) = 43
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A man borrows * 8000
He agrees to repay with a total interest of 1360 in 12 monthly instalments.
Each instalment being less than the preceding one by * 40
=
x 40
= 12 x 34
= 408 (Ans)
Answer: b. C = 5 × ($0.75 × 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that 4 quarts = 1 gallon
Therefore, if a cleaning product sells for $0.75 a quart, the equation can be used to solve for the total cost, C , of five gallons of the product will be:
= 5 × ($0.75 × 4)
= 5 × $3
= $15
