A group of tourists spends $156 to rent snorkels and fins. A total of 15 snorkels and 18 pairs of fins are rented. Renting a sno

Bas_tet [7]

You could use many methods to find the answer to this problem, but I am going to use the most efficient one I know.
18f+15(4f)=156
F is for fins. We should now solve the equation.
18f+60f=156
78f=156
156÷78=2
So fins cost 2 dollars. Now, we know snorkels cost four times the amount of fins. Four times 2 is eight. So the snorkels cost $8 to rent. Let's check our math.
15(8) + 18(2)
120+36=156
So it cost $8 to rent a snorkel.

The measures of two complementary angles are described by the expression(13y+12) and (20y+12). Find the measures of angles

Pachacha [2.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angles means that both of them together = 90

13y +12 + 20y + 12 = 90

add all y together and numbers together

33y + 24 = 90

solve for y

33y= 66. y= 2

now let's get the measurements of the angles

13(2) + 12= 38

20(2) + 12= 52

A ladder is leaning up against a house. The ladder is 20 feet long and the base of the ladder is 12 feet away from the house. Ho

MrRa [10]

Answer:

16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the ladder=20 feet

Distance from the base of the ladder to the house = 12 feet

You will notice that a wall is vertical and the ladder makes an angle with the horizontal ground(making it the hypotenuse). This is a right triangle problem.

To find the how far up the house can the ladder can reach, we simply find the third side of the right triangle.

From Pythagoras theorem

$Hyp^2=Opp^2+Adj^2\\20^2=12^2+Adj^2\\Adj^2=400-144\\Adj^2=256\\Adj=\sqrt{256}=16$
