Answer:

<u>The correct answer is C. 14.6 feet</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given to solve the case:

Length of the ladder = 15 feet

Distance from the base of the wall = 3.5 feet

Using the Pythagorean theorem for finding the height, because this is a right triangle:

h² = Length of the ladder ² - Distance from the base of the wall ²

h² = 15 ²  - 3.5 ²

h² = 225  - 12.25

h² = 212.75

h = √ 212.75

h = 14.59

<u>h = 14.6 feet (Rounding to one decimal place)</u>

3(x^2+4x)+4(y^2-2y)=32
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

3x^2 + 12x + 4y^2 - 8y = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x^2+4x)+4(y^2-2y)=32

At first we have to break the parenthesis to get the variables in normal position. To break those, we have to multiply each with the help of algebraic expression:

or, (3*x^2) + (3 × 4x) + (4 × y^2) - (4 × 2y) = 32

or, 3x^2 + 12x + 4y^2 - 8y = 32

Since the equation does not have anything to add or deduct, therefore, it is the answer.
