The answer is √91 feet (which is the same as 9.54 feet).
Imagine this as a right triangle. A length of the foot is actually a hypotenuse (c). The distance from wall's base to the ladder foot is one of the sides of the triangle (let it be a).
So, using the Pythagorean theorem:
c² = a² + b²
It is given:
c = 10 feet
a = 3 feet
b = ?
c² = a² + b²
⇒ 10² = 3² + b²
100 = 9 + b²
b² = 100 - 9 = 91
⇒ b = √b² = √91 ≈ 9.54 feet
Answer:
y = 4x -14
Step-by-step explanation:
The required answer form is slope-intercept form, so we need the slope and the y-intercept of the line.
The slope equation is ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (10 -2)/(6 -4) = 8/2 = 4
The y-intercept equation is ...
b = y - mx
b = 2 -4(4) = -14
The equation of the line is y = 4x -14.
Answer:
It is. Only you dont get a whole number.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The slope is 25 and it is the rate of change per month. You will pay this additional amount if you go to the gym every month.
b. The y-intercept is 50. This amount is the constant and does not change since it is a one time fee for the year.
