Answer:

  • -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Evaluate the expression:</u>

  • b²/(a + 5)

When a= −15 and b=−5

<u>Substitute values:</u>

  • b²/(a + 5) =
  • (-5)² / (-15 + 5) =
  • 25/(-10) =
  • -2.5

------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>In case the expression is b²/a + 5, the value is:</u>

  • b²/a + 5 =
  • (-5)²/(-15) + 5 =
  • 25/(-15) + 5 =
  • - 5/3 + 5 =
  • 10/3

Answer:

  4/5 acre

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your allocations are ...

  goats: 3/5 acre

  pigs: 1/5 acre

  llamas: 2/5 acre

2 acres is 10/5 acres, so the remaining area is ...

  10/5 -3/5 -1/5 -2/5 = (10 -3 -1 -2)/5 = 4/5

4/5 acre is allocated to horses.

A 16 foot ladder rests against the side of a house and the base of the ladder is 4 feet away. How high above the ground is the t
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

  15.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometry of the problem can be modeled by a right triangle with hypotenuse 16 ft and one side length of 4 ft. If x represents the height of the ladder on the building, then the Pythagorean theorem tells us ...

  x^2 + (4 ft)^2 = (16 ft)^2

  x^2 = 240 ft^2 . . . . . . subtract 16 ft^2

  x ≈ 15.5 ft . . . . . . . . . . take the square root

The top of the ladder is about 15.5 ft above the ground.
