Answer:

The answer is 15 units hope that helps

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply pythagorean formulae here

Take the 17 as hypotenuse... And 8 as the base....

So the pythagorean formulae is

( hypotenuse) Square = (height) Square + (base) Square......

Hence put the values and the height comes as 15 units

BTW are u Indian?...

Answer:

Since the base(The ground) is perpendicular to the wall it forms a right angle and since the ladder is placed over the window it orms a triangle/Right angle triangle

By using the right hypotenuse side theoram-

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

In this condition the hypotenuse (17) and the base (8) is given

8^2 + b^2 =17^2

64 + b^2 = 289

b^2 =289 - 64

b^2=225

b=√225

b=15

Thus the height from the ground to the window is 15

Hope it helps

Solve the inequality x divided by 6 is less than or equal to 3
Alja [10]
Your inequality looks like this:
\frac{x}{6}  \leq 3
To get rid of the /6, you need to multiply by 6 as the opposite operation cancels it out. So, all you need to do is multiply both sides by 6 to isolate x. 
Therefore:
x \leq 18

What is the approximate area that is shaded red?
Mashcka [7]

To find the area that is shaded red, you find the area of the rectangle and subtract it by the area of the triangle.


Area of a rectangle:

A = l × w             [ l = 11 in ; w = 6in ]    Plug these numbers into the equation

A = 11 · 6

A = 66 in²


Area of a triangle:

A=\frac{1}{2}bh     [ b = 4 in ; h = 6 in ] Plug these #s into the equation

A = \frac{1}{2}(4)(6)

A=\frac{24}{2}

A = 12 in²


Area of rectangle - Area of triangle = Area of the shaded region

66 in² - 12 in ² = 54 in²


Your answer is B

Find the volume of this sphere.<br> Use 3 for TT.<br> V ≈ [?]in³<br> V = πr³<br> 5in<br> Entering
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 5

r³ = 125

V = (4/3)pi(r³)

pi = 3

V = (4/3)3(125)

/3 and x3 cancel

V = 4 x 125

V = 500
