Answer:

a volleyball is $16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6b+2v= 114

v=b-3

6b+2(b-3)= 114

6b + 2b - 6

8b - 6 = 114

8b = 108

b= 13.5

substitute b in

6(13.5) + 2v = 114

81 + 2v = 114

2v = 33

v= 16.5

Two poles, AB and ED, are fixed to the ground with the help of ropes AC and EC, as shown:
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

15.59 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find BC and CD

First find BC

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2

11^2 + BC^2 = 13^2

121 + BC^2 =169

Subtract 121 from each side

121-121+BC^2 = 169-121

BC^2 = 48

Take the square of each side

sqrt(BC^2 ) = sqrt( 48)

BC = 6.92820323

then we need to find CD

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

CD^2 + DE^2 = CE^2

CD^2 + 5^2 = 10^2

CD^2 + 25 =100

Subtract 25 from each side

CD^2 + 25-25 =100-25

CD^2 = 75

Take the square of each side

sqrt(CD^2 ) = sqrt( 75)

BC = 8.660254038


BD = BC +CD

     = 6.92820323 + 8.660254038

     15.58845727
