Answer

Find out the how high up the wall does the ladder reach .

To proof

let us assume that the height of the wall be x .

As given

A 25-foot long ladder is propped against a wall at an angle of 18° .

as shown in the diagram given below

By using the trignometric identity

cos\theta = \frac{Base}{Hypotenuse}

now

\theta = 18^{\circ}

Base = wall height = x

Hypotenuse = 25 foot

Put in the trignometric identity

cos18^{\circ} = \frac{x}{25}

cos18^{\circ} = \bar{0.9510565162}

x = 23.8 foot ( approx)

Therefore the height of the  ladder be 23.8 foot ( approx) .

Give an example of each of the following types of data: qualitative, quantitative, discrete, and continuous. ​
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Continuous: Height, weight, annual income.

Discrete: Number of children, number of students in a class.

Continuous data (like height) can (in theory) be measured to any degree of accuracy. If you consider a value line, the values can be anywhere on the line. For statistical purposes this kind of data is often gathered in classes (example height in 5 cm classes).

Discrete data (like number of children) are parcelled out one by one. On the value line they occupy only certain points. Sometimes discrete values are grouped into classes, but less often.

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

I'm assuming it would be 3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be 3 hours because after three hours, the candle that can only burn for 3 hours will have burned out. This leaves the candles that can burn for 4 and 5 hours. I guess if you want to get really specific you could say 3 hours and 59 minutes but I'm not totally sure how your teacher wants the answer
