Answer:

The base of the ladder is 2.58 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The angle of elevation for a ladder from the ground is 75°.

The length of a ladder, H = 10 foot

We need to find the distance from the house should you place the base of the latter. Let the base of the ladder is b. Using trigonometry,

\cos\theta=\dfrac{B}{H}\\\\B=H\times \cos\theta\\\\B=10\times \cos(75)\\\\B=2.58\ m

So, the base of the ladder is 2.58 m.

Three students earned $48.76 at the bake sell. The students split the earnings evenly, how much did each student recieve?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer

Find out the  how much did each student recieve .

To prove

Let us assume that  each student earned in the bake sell be x .

As given

Three students earned $48.76 at the bake sell.

The students split the earnings evenly i.e earning is divided into three equal parts .

Than the equation becomes

x = \frac{48.76}{3}

Solving the above

x = $16.25(approx)

Therefore the  each student recieve $16.25(approx) .

Hence proved

Squareroot(y-1) + 3 = y
jek_recluse [69]
Note:xy means x times y and x(y) means the same thing

so
first we get rid of square root then
make the equation equal to zero becaues if
xy=0 then x or/and y=0



squareroot(y-1)+3=y

isolate the squareroot
subtrac 3 from boht sides

squareroot(y-1)=y-3

square both sides (since they are equal, you should be able to square both sides and still make it true)

(squareroot(y-1))^2=(y-3)^2
(y-1)=(y-3)(y-3)
y-1=y^2-6y+9
subtrac y from both sides
-1=y^2-7y+9
add 1 to both sides
0=y^2-7y+10
find what two number multiply to make 10 and add to get -7
the answer is -2 and -5

0=(y-5)(y-2)
therfore
y-5=0
and/or
y-2=0

therefor
y=5 or/and 2 might work
let's try out 2
square root(2-1)+3=2
square root(1)+3=2
1+3=2
false
so 2 doesn't work



let's try 5
squareroot(5-1)+3=5
squareroot(4)+3=5
2+3=5
5=5
true

y=5

When Brad was born, his Grandma put, $1,500 in a new account for him. Since then, the balance of the account, has grown by 6.5%
marin [14]

Answer:

$969.04

Step-by-step explanation:

now at age of 18 Brad has 1500 * 1,065^18

at age of 21 he will have 1500 * 1,065^21

if he waits the difference will be 1500 * 1,065^21 - 1500 * 1,065^18 = $969.04
