How far up the house would a ladder be resting if it is 25 ft long and 3 ft

Mathematics

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The last one is absurd. You can't have a ladder reaching higher than itself. The question is a Pythagorean problem.

Givens

a = 3

b = ?

c = 25 feet

Formula

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Solution

3^2 + b^2 = 25^2

9 + b^2 = 625                  Subtract 9 from both sides.

b^2 = 625 - 9

b^2 = 616                        Take the square root of both sides.

b = sqrt(616)

b = 24.8

Can you explain how you would convert 4 m to millimeters?
Andrew [12]
M to millimetres is 3 steps. m > dm > cm > mm. since it is 3 steps down, the comma goes 3 places left. 4 > 0,4 > 0,04 > 0,004. so 4 m is equal to 0,004 mm

Answer:

Total amount of fencing needed as an algebraic expression in terms of x is: <em>10x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>3</em> .

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is given that each rectangle has the same dimensions, the dimensions of each rectangle must be: x units by 2x + 1 units.

Based on this, we can calculate the total amount of fencing needed.

Let width of each rectangle = x

Let length of each rectangle = 2x + 1

There are 4 widths and 3 lengths in total of fencing.

Therefore:

= 4 ( x ) + 3 ( 2x + 1 )

Expand:

= 4x + 6x + 3

Group like-terms:

= 10x + 3

Using the formula for interest:

F = P (1 + r/n)^t

Where:
F = future value
P = Principal value
r = interest rate per year
n = interest period
t = duration

Substituting the given values:
F = 200 (1 + 0.32/12)^1
F = 205.33

To obtain the interest, we subtract the principal value from the future value. This is shown below:

Interest = 205.33 - 200 = 5.33

Among the choices, the answer is A.
