Use the Pythagorean theorem:

Height is 14, base is 3, so we can calculate the length required.

Length = sqrt(14^2 + 3^2)

Length = sqrt( 196 + 9)

Length = sqrt(205)

Length = 14.32 feet.

The ladder needs to be 14.32 feet. The longest her ladder can be is 14 feet so her ladder won’t work.

Dan has already delivered 48 donuts today. For the next few hours, Dan will deliver 60 donuts per hour. Match the number of donu
frez [133]
A.number of donuts delivered 2 hours from now.
2. Next=now +60+60
starting at 48                      because 2 hours meant  2*60 = 60+60

B. number of donuts delivered 7 hours from now C
3.Next= now +420
starting at 48                     because 7 hours meant  7*60 = 420 mn

C.number of donuts delivered n hours from now.
4. Next=now+60n
starting at 48            (this is obvious)

so finally, 
 D. number of donuts delivered 6 hours from now.
1. Next= now+ 6*60
starting at 48

How do I solve for y?
vivado [14]
Short Answer: y = 36°
Remark
What an interesting question!! The first thing you have to do is find out what the interior angle of a regular pentagon is. After you have done that, you can calculate y.

Method.
The exterior angles of a regular figure add up to 360°. 

Step One

Find out the size of the exterior angles of a  regular pentagon. 
There are 5 such angles. They add up to 360°

5x = 360  Divide by 5
x = 360 / 5
x = 72°

Step Two
Find out the value of the interior angles of a pentagon.

Method
The interior and exterior angles add up to 180°
Exterior Angle + Interior Angle = 180°
Exterior angle = 72 degrees
72° + Interior Angle = 180°                  Subtract 72 from both sides.
Interior Angle = 180° - 72° 
Interior Angle = 108°

Step Three
Solve for y.

There are 3 tiles each with an angle of 108° that are placed together. So y + 3 interior angles = 360°

y + 3*interior angles = 360°
y + 3*108 = 360 
y + 324 = 360 Subtract 324 from both sides.
y = 360 - 324
y = 36°

I'll give more points here is what I need.
Serga [27]

Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 3; y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

angle = 45°

Opposite side = x

Adjacent side = y

hypotenuse = 3√2

To solve this problem, use trigonometric functions.

1) To find x, use the trigonometric function sine.

              sin Ф = Opposite side / hypotenuse

-Solve for Opposite side (x)

              Opposite side = hypotenuse x sin Ф

-Substitution

              Opposite side = 3√2 sin 45

-Simplification

               Opposite side = 3√2 (1 / √2)

               Opposite side = 3(1)

-Result  

               x = 3

2) To find y use the trigonometric function cosine

               cos Ф = Adjacent side / hypotenuse

-Solve for Adjacent side

                Adjacent side = hypotenuse x cos Ф

-Substitution

                Adjacent side = 3√2 x cos 45

-Simplification

                Adjacent side = 3√2 x (1/√2)

                Adjacent side = 3(1)

-Result

                y = 3

A bookcase has 6 shelves.
xeze [42]

Answer:

21 books are on each shelf.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you need to divide 130 and 6 so you should get 21 with a remainder of 4 which is the amount of books on each shelf and the amount of books that are left over.

I hope this helps :D
