A 5-meter ladder is leaning against the side of a house. The foot of the ladder is pulled away from the house at a rate of 0.4 m

Flura [38]

<h2>The top of the ladder is descending at 0.3 m/s.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras theorem we know that

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Perpendicular²

h² = b² + p²

We have for ladder

h = 5 m

b = 3 m

5² = 3² + p²

p = 4 m

$\frac{db}{dt}=0.4m/s\\\\\frac{dh}{dt}=0$

Differentiating h² = b² + p² with respect to time

$2h\times \frac{dh}{dt}=2b\times \frac{db}{dt}+2p\times \frac{dp}{dt}\\\\5\times 0=3\times 0.4+4\times \frac{dp}{dt}\\\\\frac{dp}{dt}=-0.3m/s$

The top of the ladder is descending at 0.3 m/s.

Al saves pennies. He agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev if she would give 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl and if Carl

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

2744 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pennies Al have initially.

We have been given that Al agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev, so number of pennies Bev will get would be $\frac{3}{7}x$ .

We are also told that Bev gave 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl, so number of pennies that Carl will get would be $\frac{3}{7}x\cdot \frac{3}{7}=\frac{9}{49}x$ .

Further, Carl gave 3/7 of what he got from Bev to Dani, so number of pennies that Dani will get would be $\frac{9}{49}x\cdot \frac{3}{7}=\frac{27}{343}x$ .
