Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the wall. The straight line distance from the bottom of the window to the ground forms the opposite side. The distance from the bottom of the ladder to the house represents the adjacent side. To determine the required length of the wire, c, we would Pythagorean theorem which us expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore,

c² = 6² + 5² = 36 + 25 = 61

c = √61 = 7.81 ft

NEED HELP M&lt;1 <br><br> Use the given information
kondor19780726 [428]
The line should equal 180 degrees, so we would subtract 122 from 180 to get 58 degrees. Since the triangle is equilateral, each angle is the same measure, so I believe m<1 should be 58 degrees.

Martin is paid an hourly rate of d dollars per hour for the first 40 hours he works per week. He is paid one-and-a-half times hi
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

40d + 10(1.5d) = 770 can be used to determine Martin's hourly pay.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Hourly rate = d

Earning to first 40 hours = 40d

Earning of more than 40 hours = 1.5d

Amount paid per week = $770

Hours worked = 50 hours

first 40 hours + 10 hours = total earned

40d + 10(1.5d) = 770

Hence,

40d + 10(1.5d) = 770 can be used to determine Martin's hourly pay.

It takes 32 minutes for 8 people to paint 8 walls. How many minutes does it take 12 people to paint 12 walls ? Confused !
Radda [10]

Answer:

It takes 32 Minutes for 12 people to paint 12 walls

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 8 people 32 minutes to paint 8 walls, then that means each person takes 32 minutes to paint 1 wall. With that being said, If you have 12 people painting 12 walls, It will take 32 minutes for all 12 walls to be painted.

Hope this helps!
