Visualize the image in your mind and you can see that it forms a right angled triangle with a base,altitude and hypotenuse
base=2 feet
hypotenuse(ladder)=13 ft
We need to find the altitude,
By applying pythagoras theorem,
base square+altitude square=hypotenuse square
Take altitude as x
2 square+x square=13 square
4+x square=169
x square=169-4
x square=165
x= root of 165
x=12.8 feet(approx.)
Answer:
1.44
Step-by-step explanation:
You are trying to find what's the price per ounce which is the unit rate to find that out you.You first make a fraction then if it's money put it in the numerator ALWAYS and the 7 in the donomenater then make another fraction put 1 in the donomenater since you are trying to find the unit rate then you think 7 divided by what equals 1 and the answer is 7 because 7 divided by 7 equals 1 so now you know what to divide to 10.08 it's 7 so 10.08 divided by 7 equals 1.44.So the price per ounce is $1.44
X= — 1

Answer:
(mn+n²)/(m+n)
Step-by-step explanation:
probability of blue marble= n/(n+m)
probability of red marble= m/(n+m)
probability that process stops = Probability of both blue + probability of both red= n/(n+m) × n/(n+m) + m/(n+m)×m/(n+m)
= (n²+m²)/(n+m)²
P(1st marbel is blue)= P(blue and red) + P(blue and blue)
= mn/(n+m) + n²/(n+m)
= (mn+n²)/(m+n)
P(1st marble is blue | process stops)= ( (mn+n²)/(m+n)× (n²+m²)/(n+m)²)/ ((n²+m²)/(n+m)²)
= (mn+n²)/(m+n)
