You are treating yourself this week-end to an afternoon at a paintball park. For three hours Paintball Excursions charges $30 to
rent equipment and $15 for each box of paintballs used. On the other side of town, at Paintball USA, they do not charge for rental of equipment but charge $25 for each box of paintballs. Their sessions also last three hours. Write and solve an equation to find the number of boxes of paintballs you would have to use for both parks to charge the same amount.

Answer:
5 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Mr. Dyer is leaning a ladder against the side of his house to repair the roof.
The top of the ladder reaches the roof, which is 3 meters high.
The base of the ladder is 4 meters away from the house, where Mr. Dyer's son is holding it steady.
Question asked:
How long is the ladder?
Solution:
<em>Here we found that a right angle triangle is formed in which base and height is given and we have to find the longest side of the triangle.</em>
Base = 4 meters
Height = 3 meters
Length of the ladder = ?
<u>By Pythagoras theorem: </u>
Square of longest side = Square of base + Square of height
Taking root both side :-
Thus, length of ladder is 5 meters.
