Is a problem solving method that uses that fact that any number or expression can be multiplied by one without changing it's value.
The horizontal distance between the base of the ladder and the wall is: 11.8 foot
Hey there!
2x + 7 = 27
2x = 20
x = 10
3x + 1 = 28
3x = 27
x = 9
The values for both of these equations are 9 and 10; therefore, the answers are not equivalent.
I hope this helps!
