Brent has a collection of 84 Bobble Head trophies he needs to box up for the move to his new home. He can fit 7 trophies into on

Alina [70]

$\displaystyle \frac{84\,\text{trophies}}{\left(\frac{7\,\text{trophies}}{\text{box}}\right)}=\frac{84}{7}\,\text{box}\\\\=12\,\text{box}$

A 5-meter ladder is leaning against the side of a house. The foot of the ladder is pulled away from the house at a rate of 0.4 m

Flura [38]

<h2>The top of the ladder is descending at 0.3 m/s.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras theorem we know that

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Perpendicular²

h² = b² + p²

We have for ladder

h = 5 m

b = 3 m

5² = 3² + p²

p = 4 m

$\frac{db}{dt}=0.4m/s\\\\\frac{dh}{dt}=0$

Differentiating h² = b² + p² with respect to time

$2h\times \frac{dh}{dt}=2b\times \frac{db}{dt}+2p\times \frac{dp}{dt}\\\\5\times 0=3\times 0.4+4\times \frac{dp}{dt}\\\\\frac{dp}{dt}=-0.3m/s$

The top of the ladder is descending at 0.3 m/s.
