Part 1

There are many ways to go about this, but one possibility is the following:

You are building a tree house. Your ladder is 10 feet long and the portion in the tree you're trying to get to is 8 feet off the ground. How far should the base of the ladder be from the tree so you can reach that portion?

==========================================================

Part 2

The drawing is shown below. The diagram is shown in 2D to keep things as simple as possible. Adding a third dimension greatly complicates everything.

We have a right triangle, so it has a 90 degree angle as shown by the square marker. The vertical leg is 8 feet. The horizontal leg is unknown. The hypotenuse (longest side) is 10 feet long to indicate the ladder.

==========================================================

Part 3

Use the pythagorean theorem to get...

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 8^2 = 10^2

x^2 + 64 = 100

x^2 = 100-64

x^2 = 36

x = sqrt(36)

x = 6

The base of the ladder should be 6 feet away from the tree, so that you can reach 8 feet off the ground.

I NEEEEEED HEEEEEEEP PLZZZZZZZZ
Tema [17]

So, since the student makes $30 each week, we can disregard the number of hours.


So, we can model this situation by the following equation

9.5h+30


So, if he works 10.25 hrs (15 minutes = .25 of 1 hr) we just plug that number in

9.5h+30\\9.5(10.25)+30\\127.275

Since it's money we round to the nearest cent

So he will make $127.28 Next week

W=zr-2zt^3 solve for z
ladessa [460]

Answer: z=0

Step-by-step explanation:

W=zr-2zt^3

Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right.

dd '-1rz' to each side of the equation.

-1rz+z=rz+-1rz+-2t^3z

Combine like terms: rz + -1rz = 0

-1rz+z=0+(-2t^3z)

-1rz+z=-2t^3z

Add 2t^3z to each side

-1rz+2t^3z+z=-2t^3z+2t^3z

Combine the like terms 2t^3z+2t^3z=0

-1rz+2t^3z+z=0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'z'.

z(-1r+2t^3+1)=0

Hope this helps, HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Superbowl Weekend! :-)
