Answer: the distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder is 6.84 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The scenario is shown in the attached photo.
Right angle triangle ABC is formed when the ladder leans against the wall of the house.
AC = the height of the ladder
AB = x feet = distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder
BC is the wall of the building.
To determine x, we will apply trigonometric ratio
Cos # = adjacent/hypotenuse
Where
# = 70 degrees
Hypotenuse = 20
Adjacent = x
Cos 70 = x/20
x = 20cos70
x = 20 × 0.3420
x = 6.84 feets

Answer: 63%
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>First step</u>
Find the 10th year rate of loss that will make the average of loss over the 10 years to equal 38.0%.
Assume this rate is x;

x = 37%
<u>Second step - Survival rate</u>
The survival rate is calculated by;
= 1 - rate of loss
= 1 - 37%
= 63%
