Answer:

70 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Larry forms a right triangle with the ground (this is one leg of a right triangle) and he is 24 inches from his shadow (this is the second leg).

74 inches is the hypotenuse of the right triangle

use pythagorean theorem:  a^2 + b^2 = c^2

let h = Larry's height

h^2 + 24^2 = 74^2

h^2 + 576 = 5476

h^2 = 4900

h = sq rt 4900

h = 70

Use the following statements to find a compound statement for (p∨q)∧rp∨q)∧r p: 5<-3 q: All vertical angles are congruent. r:
guajiro [1.7K]
Given the compound statement <span>(p∨q)∧r
where: p: 5 < -3
q : All vertical angles are congruent.
r: 4x = 36, then x = 9.

Recall the in logic, '</span>∨' symbolises "or" while '∧' symbolises "and".

Therefore, the compound statement <span>(p∨q)∧r can be written as follows:
Either 5 < -3 or all vertical angles are congruent, and if 4x = 36, then x = 9.

Answer:

<h2>The missing value is 2. The coordinate will be (-5, 2)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not properly written. Find the correct question below.

If x – 5y = -15 . Complete the missing value in the solution to the equation (-5, ____)

Let the coordinate of the variables be (x, y). Comparing the coordinates (x, y) with the given coordinate (-5, __), we will discover that x = -5. To get the y coordinate, we will substitute x = -5 into the given expression as shown;

If x – 5y = -15

-5 - 5y = -15

Adding 5 both sides

-5-5y+5 = -15+5

-5y = -10

Dividing both sides by -5;

-5y/-5 = -10/-5

y = 2

<u>Hence the missing value in the solution of the equation is 2</u>. The coordinate will be (-5, 2)
