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

kykrilka [37]
Answer: The correct answer is "No, because there is a lot of variability in the language arts book data."

The mean of the language arts book is higher than the mean of the social studies book, however, there is a lot of variability in the language arts book. This means that the language arts book could actually be lower than the social studies book. It is not likely but it could happen.

Charles wants to take out a 5 year loan on a car that costs $15,000. He is trying to make a rough estimate to decide if he can a
marin [14]

Answer:


No, This is not reasonable estimate.  

Step-by-step explanation:


Charles wants to take out a 5 year loan on car that cost $15000.  

He make rough estimate to make payment. He can afford to pay up to $200 per month.  

First we find total number of months in 5 years.  

Total months = 5x12= 60 months

Total estimate to pay = 60\times 200 =$12000

we can see cost of a car $15,000 is greater than his estimation $12,000.  

Therefore, Charles estimation will not work.  

No, This is not reasonable estimate.

Find the missing part. L=8, w=4, h=2. Find the diagonal of (d) of the retangular solid
marusya05 [52]

The diagonal of the rectangular solid is d=2 \sqrt{21}

Explanation:

The length of the rectangular solid is l=8

The width of the rectangular solid is w=4

The height of the rectangular solid is h=2

We need to determine the diagonal of the rectangular solid.

The diagonal of the rectangular solid can be determined using the formula,

d=\sqrt{l^{2}+w^{2}+h^{2}}

Substituting the values l=8, w=4 and h=2 , we get,

d=\sqrt{8^{2}+4^{2}+2^{2}}

Squaring the terms, we get,

d=\sqrt{64+16+4}

Adding the terms, we have,

d=\sqrt{84}

Simplifying, we have,

d=2 \sqrt{21}

Thus, the diagonal of the rectangular solid is d=2 \sqrt{21}
