Answer:
a: 162
b: 142
Step-by-step explanation:
a: december 1=2
a: december 2=6
a: december 3 = 6 x 3 = 18
a: december 4 = 18 x 3 =54
a: december 5 = 54 x 3 =162
~ triples the number of newspapers means "x3" ~
so on the last day, 162 newspapers
B: sum up all the newspapers:
2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162
= 8 + 18 + 54 + 162
= 26 + 54 + 162
= 80 + 162
= 242 all in total newspapers

Answer:
Height of building from base to ladder = 5.8 meter (Approx.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of ladder = 6 meters
Distance of ladder from base = 1.5 meters
Find:
Height of building from base to ladder
Computation:
Perpendicular = √Hypotenuse² - Base²
Height of building from base to ladder = √Length of ladder² - Distance of ladder from base²
Height of building from base to ladder = √6² - 1.5²
Height of building from base to ladder = √36 - 2.25
Height of building from base to ladder = √33.75
Height of building from base to ladder = 5.8 meter (Approx.)
I think 1 is -540 and 2 is -290
Set up a proportion
EA / EB = ED/ EC
16 / (5x + 2 + 16) = 12 / (12 + 24)
16/(5x + 18) = 12 / 36 Cross multiply
16 * 36 = (4x + 18)*12 Remove the brackets
576 = 48x + 216 Subtract 216 from both sides.
360 = 48x Divide by 48
360/48 = x
7.5 = x
