The height of the fence is irrelevant. The bottom of the ladder is 3+8 = 11 feet from the building. The window is 14ft above the ground:
sqrt(14^2+11^2) = length of your ladder.

Oliga [24]
This information will be modeled using the formula
thus we shall have:
Sn=ar^n
where:
a=first term
r=common ratio
from the information:
a=30 ft
r=60/100=3/5=0.6
therefore the formula will be
Sn=30(0.6)^n
where n is the number of terms:
thus when n=5 th sum will be:
S5=30(0.6)^5
S5=30(0.6)^5
S5=2.33 ft
Answer: 2.33 ft

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Rina will need 6 tickets.

Explanation:

Rina needs only 1 ticket to ride the ferris wheel once, and 1 ticket to ride the bumper cars once. If she wants to ride the ferris wheel 5 times, then she'll need 5 tickets since 1 x 5 = 5. If she wants to ride the bumper cars only once, she'll only need 1 ticket since 1 x 1 = 1.

Add the answers together, and you get 6 tickets since 5 + 1 = 6.

Hope this helps! :)
