Answer:

14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus on the triangle, and temporarily neglect the 2 ft measurement at the top of the triangle. Then the 2 legs of the triangle have lengths h - 2 ft and 5 ft, and the hypotenuse is 13.

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem, we get:

13^2 = (h - 2)^2 + 5^2, or

169 = h^2 - 4h + 4 + 25, or

144 = h^2 - 4h + 4, or

140 = h^2 - 4h, or, finally,

h^2 - 4h - 140 = 0. We must find the value of h.

I graphed this function on a calculator and found that -10 is a zero. Thus, the function factors into (h + 10)(h - 14) = 0, or h = 14.

The total height of the piece of plywood is 14 ft.

Check this: does a right triangle with legs (14 - 2) and 5 have a hypotenuse of 13? Yes.

The cheapest available ticket for Super Bowl Ll on the secondary market costs

drek231 [11]

Answer:

He must work 52 days to pay for a single ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using proportions.

Per hour:

Joel earns $7.25 per hour, 20% of which is deducted for taxes. So without taxes, in each hour, he earns 100%-20% of 80% of this, so 0.8*7.25 = $5.8.

Per day:

He works 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, so 8 hours a day.

For each hour, he earns $5.8.

So in a day, he makes 8*5.8 = $46.4

How many days he must work:

The ticket costs $2400.

He makes $46.4 a day.

So, to buy a ticket, he needs to work:

2400/46.4 = 51.7 days

Rounding up

He must work 52 days to pay for a single ticket.

A car is traveling at a speed of 25 meters per second what is the cars speed in kilometers per hour how many kilometers will the

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

90 km/h
180 km

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 1000 m in 1 km, and 3600 s in 1 h, so the speed conversion is ...

$\dfrac{25\,m}{s}\cdot\dfrac{1\,km}{1000\,m}\cdot\dfrac{3600\,s}{1\,h}=\dfrac{90\,km}{h}$

The car's speed is 90 km/h.

In 2 hours, the car will travel ...

distance = speed · time = (90 km/h)(2 h) = 180 km

Susan charges $8 per hour walking her neighbor’s dog. She charges $12 per hour babysitting. Part A: Define the variables. Part B

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

the total she earns with "d" hours of dog walking and "b" hours of babysitting is given by: 8 d + 12 b

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use "d" to represent the number of hours that Susan walks the dog, and we define "b" as the number of hours she babysits, then the expression that represents the amount she earns by walking the dog is: $8 times d = 8 d

Similarly, the amount she earns by babysitting is $12 times b = 12 b

Then the total she earns with "d" hours of dog walking and "b" hours of babysitting is: 8 d + 12 b
