There is no shape, could you give a picture or something of the shape?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to approach this that makes the most sense to a student would be to find out how far from the house the ladder currently is, then add 3 feet to that and do the problem all over again. This is right triangle stuff...Pythagorean's Theorem in particular. The ladder is the hypotenuse, 52 feet long. The height of the rectangle is the distance the ladder is up the side o the house, 48 feet. We plug those into Pythagorean's Theorem and solve for the distance the ladder is from the house:
and
and
so
x = 20. Now if we add the 3 feet that the ladder was pulled away from house, the distance from the base of the ladder to the house is 23 feet, the ladder is still 52 feet long, but what's different is the height of the ladder up the side of the house, our new x:
and
and
so
x = 46.6 feet
Answer:
x= 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
simplify so you can isolate x quicker: 2x-5=5x-6
subtract 2x from both sides: -5=3x-6
add 6 to both sides: 1=3x
divide both side by the 3 to isolate x: 1/3=x
Answer:
<h2>36.14 pounds of 34% copper alloy and 9.86 pounds of 48% copper alloy</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
First alloy contains 34% copper and the second alloy contains 48% alloy.
We wish to make 46 pounds of a third alloy containing 37% copper.
Let the weight of first alloy used be
in pounds and the weight of second alloy used be
in pounds.
Total weight =

Total weight of copper = 

Subtracting 34 times first equation from second equation,

∴ 36.14 pounds of first alloy and 9.86 pounds of second alloy were used.
Order the following integers from least to greatest.-41, -53, -73, -78 A. -78, -53, -73, -41 B. -78, -73, -41, -53 C. -73, -78,

The value of negative integers decreases the further we get from the 0 point on the number line.
Therefore, if we arrange the numbers in ascending order ignoring the negative sign, the numbers will be in descending order when the negative sign is included.
By the definition above, we can say that the smallest number of the lot is -78 and the largest one is -41.
The numbers can be ordered from least to greatest as shown below:

OPTION D is the correct answer.
