Answer:
16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometry of the problem can be modeled by a right triangle. The Pythagorean theorem tells us the relationship between the various distances.
EH² +HF² = EF²
EH² + 12² = 20²
EH² = 400 -144
EH = √256 = 16
The hook is 16 feet below Edna.
We can set Maggie's age to x
If her brother is six years younger than four times her age, than her brother must be equal to: 4x-6
Since the sum of their ages is 39, we can set up an equation.
(Sum of Maggie's age) + (sum of Maggie's brother's age) = 39
x + (4x -6) = 39
5x -6 = 39
5x = 45
x = 9 , Maggie's age is 9
Answer:
58.564
or $58.56
Step-by-step explanation:
the number of elements in the union of the A sets is:5(30)−rAwhere r is the number of repeats.Likewise the number of elements in the B sets is:3n−rB
Each element in the union (in S) is repeated 10 times in A, which means if x was the real number of elements in A (not counting repeats) then 9 out of those 10 should be thrown away, or 9x. Likewise on the B side, 8x of those elements should be thrown away. so now we have:150−9x=3n−8x⟺150−x=3n⟺50−x3=n
Now, to figure out what x is, we need to use the fact that the union of a group of sets contains every member of each set. if every element in S is repeated 10 times, that means every element in the union of the A's is repeated 10 times. This means that:150 /10=15is the number of elements in the the A's without repeats counted (same for the Bs as well).So now we have:50−15 /3=n⟺n=45
