Answer:

by applying Pythagoras theorem;

the ladder(13m) acts as hypotenuse

the wall (12m) acts as height

the distance between the the two is the base

therefore

a² + b² = c²

b²= c²- a²

b²= 169 - 144

b² = 25

√b² = √25

b= 5m

the distance is 5m

A customer orders 8 bags of rice that each weigh 1/2 kg, and 12 packets of popcorn that each weigh 150 g. What is the total mass
Nonamiya [84]
Rice: .5(8) = 4kg (4000 g)
Popcorn: 150(12) = 1800 g

Total mass = mass of rice (4000 g) + mass of popcorn (1800g)

So...

Total mass = 5,800 g (or 5.8 kg)
