P = 5
I am not sure if this is correct. However, P is used to represent the addresses and there are 5 addresses. Therefore p = 5.
Again using the Pythagorean Theorem:
h^2=x^2+y^2, where h is the hypotenuse of a right triangle and x and y are the side lengths. You are given that the hypotenuse is 34 ft and the base side is 16ft. Let h=34, x=16, and y=height, then you have:
34^2=16^2+y^2
y^2=34^2-16^2
y^2=1156-256
y^2=900
y=√900
y=30 ft
So the ladder will reach a spot 30 feet high on the building.
Answer:
0.566666666
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+5y=619
x=10y-3
________
2(10y-3) +5y=619
20y-6+5y=619
25y=619+6
25y=625
y=625/25
y=25
x=10*25-3
x=250-3
x=247
