A 12-m ladder is leaning against a wall.

Len [333]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean's Theorem for a right triangle. Your best bet when learning/visualizing word problems is to draw a picture, then learn how to visualize in your head over time.

3^2+x^2=12^2\\9+x^2=144\\x=\sqrt{135}

The radical can be further simplified because 135 is the product of 9 and 15. 9 has a perfect root of 3.

x=3\sqrt{15} meters or 11.62 meters

Francois baked just enough cookies to fill all the orders at his bakery. While the cookies were cooling, a kitchen assistant kno
Goryan [66]
We see that 12% of the cookies is 36, so we write an equation!  Call the number of cookies x.

12x/100=36

Multiplying by 100/12, we see that:

x=300

Thus, 300 cookies were ordered.

How do I graph this problem?
KIM [24]
The easiest way to graph these equations is to place them in slope intercept form.
2x = 10 - 3y
3y + 2x = 10
3y = -2x + 10
y = -2/3x + 3 and 3/10
Then just place values in for x to determine y
If x = 0, y = -2/3(0) + 3 and 3/10; y = 3 and 3/10
x = 1; y = -2/3(1) + 3 and 3/10; y =  2 and 19/30
Repeat as needed for more points, then plot the points on the graph, and draw a line through the points.

The same can be applied to the second equation.
3x + 2y = 5
2y = -3x + 5
y = -3/2x + 2 and 1/2

x = 0; y = -3/2(0) + 2 and 1/2; y = 2 and 1/2
x = 1; y = -3/2(1) + 2 and 1/2; y = 1
Repeat as needed for more points, then plot points and draw a line through them.
