Answer: x = 14/23
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-6=4(2-3x)-8x
3x-6=8-12x-8x --> Expand 4(2-3x)
3x-6=8-20x --> Collect like terms
3x-6+6=8-20x+6 --> Add 6 to both sides, to remove it from the right side
3x=-20x+14
3x+20x=-20x+14+20x --> Add 20x to both sides, to remove it from the left side
23x=14
--> Divide both sides by 23
x = 14/23
Answer:
h = 19.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
A 20 ft ladder 4ft from the base of the wall.
The height of the ladder, H = 20 ft
The base distance, b = 4 ft
We need to find the height of the reach. Let it is P.
Using Pythagoras theorem,

or
P = 19.6 ft
So, the height is 19.6 ft.
(6,3) (1,4)
4-1/3-6
3/-3
The slope is -1
