Let the height be h
According to the Pythagoras Theorem,
h= root 15^2-5^2
= root 225-25
= root 200= 14.14
Thus, the ladder reaches approximately 14.14 feet from the base of the house
3*16-2*4=48-8=40 Try this, its my only guess :(
Sounds like B to me because the problem has a solution! I would looooveee if you could head over an give me some help on my question?! thanks!
Oh wait i got it give me a sec <span>To </span>calculate percentage<span> decrease: First: work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. If your answer is a negative number then this is a </span>percentage<span> increase.</span>
Basically solve for y
minus 5x fromboth sides
-15y=-5x-60
divide both sides by -15
y=1/3x+4
