Answer:

26,733

Step-by-step explanation:

39,900 - Percentage decrease =

39,900 - (33% × 39,900) =

39,900 - 33% × 39,900 =

(1 - 33%) × 39,900 =

(100% - 33%) × 39,900 =

67% × 39,900 =

67 ÷ 100 × 39,900 =

67 × 39,900 ÷ 100 =

2,673,300 ÷ 100 =

26,733

Hope this helps :)

A house is 25 feet tall and a ladder is set up 35 feet away from the side of the house. approximately how long is the ladder fro
maks197457 [2]
Use Pythagorean Theorem of a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs of the triangle set up by the house height and the ground, and c is the hypotenuse or how long the ladder is. C is going to be our unknown.
 
Just plugging in you get 25^2 + 35^2 = c^2. Simplify to 625 + 1225 = c^2. Simplify again to 1850 = c^2. The square root both sides to isolate the variable c. C = sqrt(1850) or approximately 43.0116 feet if rounded to 4 decimal places. 

The ladder is approximately 43.0116 feet long.

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  x - 5 or x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

                                           \frac{x^{2} -3x - 10}{x + 2}

1.- Factor the numerator

                                       x² - 3x - 10

    find 2 numbers that added equal -3 and multiply equal -10.

    These numbers are -5 and + 2

                                     (x - 5)(x + 2)

2.- Simplify

                                     \frac{(x - 5)(x + 2)}{x + 2)}

Delete (x +2) in both numerator and denominator

3.- Result                       x - 5

                                      x = 5

A soccer ball is kicked from ground level. The function y = -12x (x - 6) shows the height in feet) of the
enot [183]

Answer:

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = - 12x(x - 6)

When the ball hits the ground then height of ball is zero

let y = 0 , that is

- 12x(x - 6) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

- 12x = 0 ⇒ x = 0 ← when ball is first kicked

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6 ← when the ball hits the ground.

The ball hits the ground after 6 seconds
