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

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lena [83]3 years ago
6 0

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

Polynomials are closed under the operation of addition. Which statement best explains the meaning of closure of polynomials unde
spayn [35]
Answer: The correct answer is the second choice: "When any two polynomials are added, the result is always a polynomial."

When a set of numbers is "closed" under an operation, it means that the resulting output answer is the same type as the input.

For example, if you add  2x + 9 and 3x + 12, you get 5x + 21.

You started with 2 polynomials and you ended with a polynomial.

Please Please Solve Simplify The Equation
ivolga24 [154]
You distribute the number outside the parenthesis from the inside like the 3 to the q and the 3 to the 1 then the -4, add 1 and -4 which becomes -3 but then leave the one with the variable so it becomes 3q-3. do the same for each problem and the one with the fraction i suggest converting it to decimals so it's easier.
