Given :
A boat is being pulled into a dock with a rope attached to the boat at water level. When the boat is 12 feet from the dock, the length of the rope form the boat to the dock is 3 feet longer than twice the height of the dock above the water.
To Find :
The height of the dock.
Solution :
This will make a right angle triangle as given in link below .
Now , applying Pythagoras theorem :

Now , h = 5 or h = -9 .
Now , height cannot be negative .
So , height of the dock is 5 ft .
Hence , this is the required solution .
$25.50
15% of 30 is 4.5 which if you subtract it'll make $25.50 <span />

To solve x:
1. Substract 19 in both sides of the equation:

2. Multiply both sides of the ewuation by 10/9:

<h2>Then, the value of x is 60 (x=60)</h2>

The expression 15t – 2t not equivalent to 2t – 15t because the negative sign in 15t – 2t belongs to the term 2t.
Solution:
Given expressions are 15t – 2t and 2t – 15t.
To determine 15t – 2t is equivalent to 2t – 15t or not.
Substitute t = 2 in above two expressions.
15t – 2t = 15(2) – 2(2)
= 30 – 4
= 26
2t – 15t = 2(2) – 15(2)
= 4 – 30
= –26
The values of the expressions are different when t = 2.
So, 15t – 2t is not equivalent to 2t – 15t.
Hence the expression 15t – 2t not equivalent to 2t – 15t because the negative sign in 15t – 2t belongs to the term 2t.
