Answer:
after 7 minutes
19,600 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's the "pencil and paper" solution:
The two altitude equations are ...
y = 41300 -3100x
y = 2800x
They can be solved by setting the expressions for y equal to each other.
2800x = 41300 -3100x
5900x = 41300
x = 41300/5900 = 7
y = 2800·7 = 19600
The planes will both be at 19,600 feet after 7 minutes.
Answer: $11.60
Explanation: First, you want to do 15.1 - 9.3 to find what half of his weekly allowance is, and that would be 5.8, AKA $5.80. Next, you want to multiply that number by 2, which would be 5.8(2) to get 11.6, or your final answer, $11.60.
I am going to assume ‘centimetre’ was a typo.
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
C^2 - A^2 = B^2
32 = B^2
Square root both sides
B = 5.7m high
The ladder will reach 5.7 meters high
