Answer:

7.4 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from bottom of ladder to side of the house = d

θ = 62 ; height, h = 14

Using trigonometry :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Opposite = height ; adjacent = d

Tan 62° = 14 / d

1.8807264 * h = 14

d = 14 / 1.8807264

d = 7.44

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: The equation using one variable that can be used to find the total number of pounds of milk chocolate and caramels in the candy is 0.9x+3=x

x= Weight of candy in pounds

0.9x = Weight of milk chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Martin is making a candy that contains 90% milk chocolate and the rest caramels. The candy has 3 pounds of caramels.

Let x= Weight of candy in pounds

Then, 0.9x = Weight of milk chocolate.

Then, According to the question

0.9x+3=x\\\\\Rightarrow\ x-0.9x=3\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.1x=3\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{3}{0.1}=30

So, Weight of milk chocolate. = 0.9\times30=27

Hence,  the equation using one variable that can be used to find the total number of pounds of milk chocolate and caramels in the candy is 0.9x+3=x
