8%

create a fraction of the 4 states out of 50 and multiply by 100% to express as a percentage, that is

\frac{4}{50} × 100% = \frac{400}{50} = 8%

Please help with this math problem for trig. A 6 m ladder is leaning against a wall. The base of the ladder is 1.5 m from the wa
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

a = 5.81 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where b= 1.5 and c= 6

a^2 +1.5^2 = 6^2

a^2 +2.25 = 36

Subtract 2.25 from each side

a^2 +2.25-2.25 = 36-2.25

a^2 = 33.75

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(33.75)

a = 5.809475019

We only take the positive root because length must be positive

HELP ME!! SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME
IRISSAK [1]
6^2 = x (x - 9)
x^2 - 9x - 36 = 0
(x -12)(x + 3) = 0
x - 12 = 0; x = 12
x +3 = 0; x = -3

so in this case x = 12 then DC = 12 - 9 = 3

y^2 = 12^2 - 6^2
y^2 = 144 - 36
y^2 = 108
y = 10.4

Find the area of the shaded region.
Iteru [2.4K]
Keeping in mind that the area of a rectangle is simply width * length, if we get the area of the larger rectangle, and then subtract the area of the smaller rectangle, we're in effect making a hole in the larger rectangle's area and thus what's leftover is the shaded area.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{area of the larger rectangle}}{(2x+2)(3x-4)}~~-~~\stackrel{\textit{area of the smaller rectangle}}{(x-3)(x-6)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{FOIL}{6x^2-2x-8}~~~~-\stackrel{FOIL}{(x^2-9x+18)}\implies 6x^2-2x-8-x^2+9x-18&#10;\\\\\\&#10;5x^2+7x-26
