Answer:

Length of ladder =L =15

Distance from wall = D =9

Height on wall = H =??

Pythagoras equation L*L = D*D + H*H

15×15= (9×9) + H×H

225-81 = 144 =HxH

H= 12 feet.

I am right or wrong

If a car is traveling at 12 meters per second, at how many kilometers per hour (kph) is it traveling?
Kobotan [32]
Set up multiplication/division to cancel out units that you do not need for your final answer and introduce units that you do.  

You want your answer in the form km/hr and you are starting with m/s so:

(12m/s)(km/1000m)(60s/min)(60min/hr)=43.2km/hr

The car is traveling at 43.2 kilometers per hour.

The shaded region's area is x² + 23x + 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; To calculate the area of the shaded region, we subtract the area of the square which has side lengths of (x + 1) from the entire rectangle. So we determine the equations that denote the areas of the two shapes.

Step 2; Area of the square = side length × side length (x + 1)×(x + 1)    = x² + x + x + 1 = x² + 2x + 1

Area of the bigger rectangle = length × breadth = (x + 10) × (2x + 5)                            = 2x² + 5x + 20x + 50 = 2x² + 25x + 50.

Step 3; The given shaded region's area = Area of the bigger rectangle - Area of the smaller square = 2x² - x² + 25x - 2x + 50 - 1                          = x² + 23x + 49.

So the shaded region's area of x² + 23x + 49.

2.2.PS-141You are running a fuel economy study. One of the cars you find is blue. It can travel 39miles on21241 gallons of gasol
svetoff [14.1K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>\begin{gathered} \text{Unit rate of blue car = 31}\frac{3}{5}mi\text{ per gallon} \\ \text{Unit rate of red car = 28 mi per gallon} \end{gathered}

The blue car has traveled the greater distance on one gallon of gasoline

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The formula for calculating the unit rate is expressed as shown:

\text{Rate = }\frac{Distance}{\text{number of gallons}}

For the blue car

Distance = 39.5miles

Gallons of gasoline = 1.25 gallons

Get the unit rate:

\begin{gathered} \text{Unit rate = }\frac{39.5}{1.25} \\ \text{Unit rate = 3}1.6\text{ }miles\text{ per gallon} \end{gathered}

The unit rate of the blue car as a mixed fraction is 31 3/5 miles per gallon

For the red car

Distance traveled = 22.4 miles

Gallons of gasoline = 0.8 gallons of gasoline

Get the unit rate of the red car;

\begin{gathered} Unit\text{ rate = }\frac{22.4}{0.8} \\ \text{Unit rate = }28\text{miles per gallon} \end{gathered}

From the unit rates, we can see that the blue car has traveled the greater distance on one gallon of gasoline since its unit rate is greater than that of the red car.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

142 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line M is straight, we know that the sum of the measure of angle 7 and 38 degrees must be 180. So we can set up an equation. Let's set the measure of angle 7 to be x

38 + x = 180

we can subtract 38 from both sides to find

x = 180-38 = 142
