Melanie read the greater fraction of her book 1/45
You have 2 equations that are both equal to y. If they are both equal to y, then by the transitive property of equality, they are equal to each other (if a = b, and b = c, then a = c).
5x - 17 = x + 3 and
4x = 20 and x = 5. Now sub in that x value of 5 to solve for y:
y = 5 + 3 and y = 8. So the ordered pair is (5, 8)
Answer:
23.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Sketch a right triangle representing this situation. The length of the hypotenuse is 26 ft and the angle of elevation from ground to top of ladder is 65°. The "opposite side" is the reach of the ladder, which we'll call x.
Then:
opp
- sin 65° = ----------
- 26 ft
or (26 ft)(sin 65°) = opp side = height off the ground of top of ladder.
Evaluating this, we get:
(26 ft)(0.906) = 23.56 ft, or, rounded off, 23.6 ft
The ladder reaches 23.6 ft up the side of the building.
Answer:
The answer to the equation from question 7 is 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
In question 7, we are given an equation.
2³ + (8 - 5)² - 3
First, subtract 5 from 8 in the parentheses.
2³ + 3² - 3
Next, solve the exponents for 2³ and 3².
8 + 9 - 3
Add 8 to 9.
17 - 3
Subtract 3 from 17.
14
So, the answer to this equation from question 7 is 14.
