Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
5x - 4. Correct if definetly wrong.
Traffic rules are set by each individual state.
In most states, an intersection where traffic lights are out of order
is treated as if it were a 4-way STOP.
But you can't depend on this answer. You MUST determine what
the law is in the state where you're driving. And if you drive out of
state, it may change for you.
1.) Simply to 1/5 and 1/10
2.) put in decimal form 1/5= .2 and 1/10 = .1
3.) Add = .3
Answer: 1x + 2y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line is y = -1/2x + 2.
First, let's make 4 on one side of the equation. First, bring x to the left. y + 1/2x = 2. Then multiply the whole equation by two. Thus, 1x + 2y = 4.
