The foot of a ladder is placed 7meters from a wall. If the top of the ladder rests ,How long is the ladder

Mathematics
1 answer:
Virty [35]3 years ago

Answer: 11.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenario depicted is that of a right angled triangle with the 7 meters being the base and the 9 meters being the height.

The length of the ladder will therefore be the Hypothenuse.

Using the Pythagorean Rule:

a² + b² = c²

with c being the hypothenuse

7² + 9² = c²

49 + 81 = c²

c²= 130

c = √130

c = 11.4 m

The changing speed of a car is modeled by the function S(t) = −35t + 30, where t is time in seconds. Interpret the model
Flauer [41]

The car has an initial speed of 30 units and is slowing down by 35 units per second ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear function is f(x) = m x + b, where

  • m is the rat of change
  • b is the initial value

The changing speed of a car is modeled by the function s(t) = -35t + 30, where t is time in seconds.

We need to interpret the model

∵ The changing speed of a car is modeled by s(t) = -35t + 30

- Compare between the model and the form of the linear function

∴ m = -35 and b = 30

∴ The initial speed is 30 units

∴ The speed is changing by -35 units per second

- If the value of change of the speed is negative, means the

  car is slowing down by this rate

∴ The car is slowing down by 35 units per second

The car has an initial speed of 30 units and is slowing down by 35 units per second

A cylindrical roller 2.5 m in length, 1.5 m in radius when rolled on a road was found to cover the area of 16500 m2 . How many r
eduard

Answer:

701 revolutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length= 2.5 m

            Radius= 1.5 m

            Area covered by roller= 16500 m²

Now, finding the Lateral surface area of cylinder to know area covered by roller in one revolution of cylindrical roller.

Remember; Lateral surface area of an object is the measurement of the area of all sides excluding area of base and its top.

Formula; Lateral surface area of cylinder= 2\pi rh

Considering, π= 3.14

⇒ lateral surface area of cylinder= 2\times 3.14\times 1.5\times 2.5

⇒ lateral surface area of cylinder= 23.55 \ m^{2}

∴ Area covered by cylindrical roller in one revolution is 23.55 m²

Next finding total number of revolution to cover 16500 m² area.

Total number of revolution= \frac{16500}{23.55} = 700.6369 \approx 701

Hence, Cyindrical roller make 701 revolution to cover 16500 m² area.

Given: △ABC; AB=BC, m∠BDA = 60°, BD=4 cm, BD ⊥ BA . Find: DC, AC.
vekshin1

Answer:

DC = 10.93 cm ,  AC = 9.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From trigonometry;

⇒ Tan 60 = AB/BD

⇒AB = BD Tan 60 ( where BD = 4 cm )

⇒ AB = 6.93 cm

Also, AB=BC , therefore;

⇒ BC = 6.93 cm

⇒ Cos 60 = BD/AD

⇒ AD = BD/ Cos 60 = 4/Cos 60

⇒ AD = 8 cm

From Pythagoras theorem;

⇒ AC^{2} = AB^{2} + BC^{2} = (6.93)^{2} + (6.93)^{2}

⇒ AC = \sqrt{96.05} = 9.80 cm

⇒ DC = BD + BC = 4 + 6.93

⇒ DC = 10.93 cm

1. X(0,0) --> X'(3,-5).
    To go from (0,0) to (3,-5), you must go to the right 3 and down 5.

I cannot answer 2 or 3, as rotations are not my strong suit.
