It took about 0.66 hour, which is basically 40 minutes.
First multiply and dstribute
a(b+c)=ab+ac
2(3x+2)=6x+4
6x+4=2x-1+x
add like terms
6x+4=3x-1
subtract 3x from both sides
3x+4=-1
subtract 4 from both sides
3x=-5
divide bothe sides by 3
x=-5/3
Answer:
The ratio of their surface areas is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and this ratio is called the scale factor
In this problem the scale factor is equal to the ratio 
and
Remember that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its surface areas is equal to the scale factor squared
therefore
In this problem the ratio of their surface areas is 
14.89/8
Divide by 8/8
Final Answer: 1.86/1 (Rounded)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Pythagorean Theorem
h^2=x^2+y^2
Which means that the hypotenuse (longest side of a right triangle) squared is equal to the sum of its squared sides. In this case we are given the side lengths of 8 and 15 feet.
h^2=8^2+15^2
h^2=64+225
h^2=289
h=17 ft
The ladder is 17 feet long.
