Answer:
0.49
Step-by-step explanation:
for it to be rational there should not be no decimal nor pi .
y - 1 = ⁵/₆(x - 4)
y - 1 = ⁵/₆(x) - ⁵/₆(4)
y - 1 = ⁵/₆x - 3¹/₃
+ 1 + 1
y = ⁵/₆x - 2¹/₃
⁻⁵/₆x + y = ⁵/₆x - ⁵/₆x - 2¹/₃
-6(⁻⁵/₆x + y) = -6(-2¹/₃)
-6(⁻⁵/₆x) - 6(y) = 14
5x - 6y = 14
Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
Answer:
Unless there is more to the question than c = 2 because 30 /5 = 6 and if c is 3 than 3 = 6 so simplify if needed.
