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

Jerome will also order t-shirt for the volunteer he will order both adults and child t-shirt . Adults t-shirt are $5 child t-shi
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

A\geq 200...(1)

5A+2.50C\leq 1500...(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent number of adult t-shirts and C represent number of child t-shirts.

We have been given that adults t-shirt are $5 child t-shirt are $2.50, so cost of A adult t-shirts would be 5A and cost of C child t-shirts would be 2.50C.

We have been given that Jerome need at least 200 adults t-shirt. This means the number of adult t-shirts should be greater than on equal to 200.

We can represent this information in an inequality as:

A\geq 200...(1)

We are also told that Jerome will spend no more than $1500 on t-shirt. This means that cost of A adult t-shirts and C child t-shirts should be less than or equal to 1500.

We can represent this information in an inequality as:

5A+2.50C\leq 1500...(2)

Therefore, our required system of inequalities would be:

A\geq 200...(1)

5A+2.50C\leq 1500...(2)
