Answer:

8.55 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

These two triangles are similar, which means that the ratio of their corresponding sides will be the same.

The height of the 4-foot ladder and the height of the 9-foot ladder correspond, while the length of the 4-foot ladder corresponds to the length of the 9-foot ladder. So, we can write the ratio:

\frac{3.8}{x} =\frac{4}{9}, where x is the height of the 9-foot ladder.

Cross-multiply:

4 * x = 3.8 * 9

4x = 34.2

Divide by 4:

4x/4 = 34.2/4

x = 8.55

Thus, the height of the 9-foot ladder is 8.55 feet.

Hope this helps!

Simple... 3.8 / 4 + .95, and thats for every foot of a ladder...

so .95 x 9 = 8.55

(iii) A relation between a and b such that point (a,b) isequidistant from the points (8,3) and (2,7)​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

7.21 units

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven data

Point 1= (8,3)

x1= 8

y1= 3

Point 2=  (2,7)​

x2= 2

y2= 7

The expression for the distance between two points is given as

d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²)

substitute

d=√((2-8)²+(7-3)²)

d=√((-6)²+(4)²)

d=√36+16

d=√52

d= 7.21

Hence the distance between the points is 7.21 units

Elden [556K]

Answer:

  1. x ≥ 2009
  2. 3.2x -6222.8
  3. 257.2 mm
  4. year 2100

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The problem statement tells you the function applies for year values (x) 2009 and later. The domain is real numbers greater than or equal to 2009.

__

2. We can use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses:

  3.2(x -2009) +206 = 3.2x -6428.8 +206

  = 3.2x -6222.8

__

3. Put 2025 in the equation and do the arithmetic

  g(2025) = 3.2·2025 -6222.8 = 257.2 . . . . mm

__

4. Put this value of level rise in the equation and solve for x.

  g(x) = 3.2x -6222.8

  500 = 3.2x -6222.8 . . put 500 mm where g(x) is in the equation

  6722.8 = 3.2x . . . . . . . add 6222.8

  x = 6722.8/3.2 = 2100.875

The water rise will be equal to about half a meter late in the year 2100.
