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

The Pyramid Arena is located in Memphis, Tennessee. It is in the
natta225 [31]

Answer:

528000 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pyramid Arena has a shape of a square pyramid. A square pyramid is a pyramid with a square base and the top point is directly above the center of the base. It consist of 5 faces (base and 4 triangles), 8 edges and 5 vertices.

Given:

length of base (b) = 600 ft and height of lateral face (h) = 440 ft.

Since the lateral faces are made of glass, the area of each lateral face is the same as the area of a triangle with base same as base length and height same as height of lateral face.

Therefore, area of each lateral face = 1/2 × b × h = 1/2 × 440 × 600 = 132000 ft²

The lateral faces are made almost  completely of glass and they are 4 lateral faces, therefore the total  area of the glass in the Pyramid Arena = 4 ×  132000 ft² = 528000 ft²

KIM [24]

Answer:

<em>Howard works 7x+7 hours in a week</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Ron and Howard work at Amazon.

Ron works x hours each week for 7 days. This means he works 7x hours a week.

Howard works one more hour per day than Ron, thus he works x+1 hours per day. This means he works 7(x+1)=7x+7 hours a week.

Howard works 7x+7 hours in a week

Someone has conducted a study to see if there is increased risk of getting lung cancer if you work in a coal mine. In group 1, 3
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Sample relative risk is 10.    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Group 1 of coal miners: 30 out of 150 get lung cancer.

\text{P(Lung cancer for coal miner)} = \dfrac{30}{150} = \dfrac{1}{5}

Group 2 of non-coal miners: 5 out of 250 get lung cancer

\text{P(Lung cancer for non-coal miner)} = \dfrac{5}{250} = \dfrac{1}{50}

Sample relative risk:

  • It is the ratio of probability of an outcome in an exposed group to the probability of an outcome in an unexposed group.

Sample relative risk =

\dfrac{\text{P(lung cancer for coal miner)}}{\text{P(lung cancer for non coal miner)}}\\\\=\dfrac{\frac{1}{5}}{\frac{1}{50}} = \dfrac{50}{5} = 10

Thus, sample relative risk is 10.
