Let L represent the ladder length, and x the distance the horiz. ladder reaches out from the wall. Then L = x + 3, where x is the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall when the top of the ladder is 9 ft. above the ground.
Consider the triangle formed by the hypotenuse (L, same as ladder length), the (vertical) side opposite the angle formed by the hypo. (with length 9 ft) and the horiz side (which we will call x). Then, according to the Pythagorean Theorem,
L^2 = x^2 + 9^2. But L = x + 3, and L^2 = x^2 + 6x + 9 = x^2 + 9^2. Solving this equation results in x=3. 6x + 9 = 9^2, or
6x + 9 = 81
6x = 72
x = 12
But L = x+3. So L=12+3, or L = 15 (feet).
Yes .3 repeating is a real number
Answer:
$5.08
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
We are told that a credit card company applies a 6% fee on all transactions under $10
since the cost of coffee bellow $10 that is $4.80, the 6% fee is applicable
so
=6% of 4.80
=6/100*4.80
=0.06*4.8
=$0.288
Step two:
the total fee will be
=0.288+4.80
= $5.08
1.29 can go into 38.7 30 times, Your answer is 30.
