Let the height be h
According to the Pythagoras Theorem,
h= root 15^2-5^2
= root 225-25
= root 200= 14.14
Thus, the ladder reaches approximately 14.14 feet from the base of the house
Set up a proportion: x/y = x/y
(.75)/(15) = (x)/(25)
Then cross multiply:
(.75)(25) = (15)(x)
18.75 = 15x
x = 1.25 or (5/4)
There you go :)
First account: $6500
Second account: $8500
Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500
Answer:
11/6
Step-by-step explanation:
16/3 - 7/2 = 16/3 x 2/2 - 7/2 x 3/3 = 32/6 - 21/6 = 32-21/6 = 11/6
800 + 16x = 720 + 21x. Cancel out the 720 to get 80 + 16x = 21x. Subtract 16x from both sides to get 80 = 5x. Divide by 5 to get 16 = x, or x = 16. 16 hours. The charge is 800 + 16(16), = 720 + 21(16) which = 800 + 256 = 720 + 336 which = 1,056 = 1,056. Hope this helped!
