<h3>Answer: 8 feet</h3>

Explanation:

It might help to draw out what's going on. You should draw out a right triangle. We know a = 6 is one of the legs while b is the unknown leg. The hypotenuse is c = 10. Use the pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6^2 + b^2 = 10^2

36 + b^2 = 100

b^2 = 100-36

b^2 = 64

b = sqrt(64)

b = 8

The top of the ladder can reach 8 feet off the ground.

How do you get the same base for the power
zhannawk [14.2K]
64 = 2 ^6
16 = 2^4 = 

2^ 6*(2x+4) = 2^4 * 5x

6(2x+4) = 20x

10/3 x = 2x +4

4/3 x = 4

x = 3

you can also use logarithms like so

(2x+4)ln64 = 5x ln16

ln64/ln16 = 3/2

3/2 * 2x + 3/2 * 4 = 5x

3x + 6 = 5x

2x = 6

x = 3
