Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the house and the ground. The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height, h from the top of the ladder to the base of the house represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

The distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the house represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

To determine the height, h that the ladder reaches, we would apply

the Sine trigonometric ratio.

Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse. Therefore,

Sin 62 = h/12

h = 12Sin62

h = 12 × 0.8829

h = 10.6 feet

The cost of 5 hats and 1 scarf is $47. The cost of 2 hats and 2 scarves is $40. How much does one hat cost?
stepan [7]

Answer:

6.75

Step-by-step explanation:

h=hat, s=scarf

5h + 1s = $47 (equation 1)

2h + 2s = $40 (equation 2)

multiply equation 1 by 2 , we get: 10h + 2s = $94 (equation 3)

equation 3 minus equation 2, we get:

8h = $54 ⇒ h = $6.75 ⇔ 1 hat cost $6.75

substitute h = $6.75 into equation 2 to find s,

2($6.75) + 2s = $40

$13.5 + 2s = $40

2s = $26.5

s = $13.25 ⇔ 1 scarf cost $13.25
