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.

What non-zero rational number must be placed in the square so that the simplified product of these two binomials is a binomial:
aleksandrvk [35]

The product would expand to

(7t-10)(5t+x)=35t^2+7tx-50t-10x=35t^2+(7x-50)t-10x

This is a trinomial, and the only way to make it a binomial is to cancel out a coefficient using our variable x.

So, we can cancel either the linear term or the constant term.

In the first case, we require

7x-50=0 \iff 7x=50 \iff x=\dfrac{50}{7}=\dfrac{49}{7}+\dfrac{1}{7}=7\dfrac{1}{7}

In the second case, we require

-10x=0\iff 10x=0 \iff x=0

But x must be a non-zero rational number, so this solution is not feasible.

Solve this problem, and identify the percent, amount, and base.<br> What percent of 60 is 15?
ValentinkaMS [17]
First, you must understand the question. what % of 60 is 15, so I would write an equation to express this.

15 = 60x

From there, solve for x, so Divide by 60 on each side. The answer is 1/4, or 25%

Find the value of z in the isosceles triangle shown below.<br> V20<br> V20<br> 8
Andrews [41]

Answer:

<h3>x = 2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

use Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

where a = x

           b = 8/2 = 4  

           c = √20

plugin values into the formula:

x² + 4² = (√20)²

x² + 16 = 20

x² = 20 - 16

x = √4

x = 2
