Answer:

a = 24.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the lengths and c is the hypotenuse

a = the unknown distance fro the building and b is the distance up the wall, and the hypotenuse is the length of the ladder

a^2 + 17^2 = 30^2

a^2 +289 = 900

Subtract 289 from each side

a^2 +289-289 = 900-289

a^2 =611

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(611)

a = 24.71841419

To the nearest tenth

a = 24.7 ft

Answer:

24.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Pythagorean theorem question

The ladder is the hypotenuse or c

the distance from the wall is a leg or a

and the wall is the other leg or b

a² + b² = c²

a² + 17² = 30²

a²  + 289 = 900

        -289    -289

          b² = 611

         √        √

          b = √611

           b = 24.7 feet

95=6x-5(-x-8) <br>Solve for x
Allushta [10]
<span>95=6x-5(-x-8)

Distribute the -5

95 = 6x + 5x + 40

Subtract 40 from both sides and combine like terms

55 = 11x

Divide both sides by 11

x=5</span>

Consider the figure below.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

A: FG = ½GC

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AD, BC and CD are medians concurrent at G, it means G is the centroid.

Now, when median passes through the centroid, the centroid divides the median in the ratio of 2:1.

Also,that the median touches the side of the triangle at their midpoints.

Thus,by inspection, we can say that;

GD = ⅓AD

GC/FG = 2/1

Thus, GC = 2FG and FG = ½GC

BG = ⅔BE

Tbus,looking at the options given and what we have gotten in proof, we can say only FG = ½GC is correct.
