Using the Pythagorean theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.
The length of the ladder would be the hypotenuse and the base away from the wall would be one side.
So now we have:
5.5^2 + b^2 = 9^2
Simplify:
30.25 + b^2 = 81
Subtract 30.25 from each side:
b^2 = 81 - 30.25
b^2 = 50.75
Take the square root of both sides:
b = √50.75
b = 7.123
Rounded to the nearest tenth of a foot = 7.1 feet.
B
Step-by-step explanation:
half of 11 is 5.5 so counting that from either of the points leads to .5
Then continuing from there, half of 9 is 4.5 so moving the point up would get 2.5
Answer:
21060
Step-by-step explanation:
19500÷100=195
195×8=1560
1560+19500=21060
The graph shows the solutions:
x1 = -3 ⇒ x + 3 = 0
x2 = 1 ⇒ x - 1 = 0
x3 = 5 ⇒ x - 5 = 0
The polynomial follows: y = (x + 3)(x - 1)(x - 5)
.
