Answer:

3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be calculatdd by applyinthe g Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2= c^2

12^2 + x^2= 12.5^2

144+ x^2= 156.25

x^2= 156.25-144

x^2= 12.25

x= √12.25

x= 3.5

Hence the distance between the ladder and the house is 3.5 ft

Juliette [100K]

Answer: 6.13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that MUSIC Randall recorded 8 songs on his most recent CD and that the total length of the CD is 49 minutes.

The unit rate to represent the average length per song on the CD will be calculated by dividing 49 by 8. This will be:

= 49 minutes / 8

= 6.125 minutes per song

= 6.13 to nearest hundredths

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION ITS URGENT!!!
Alex Ar [27]

Start by distributing the exponent to each of the terms in (2u)^{3}.  This will become 2^{3} u^{3}, and 2^{3} =8.  Now, the expression is:

\frac{2u^{3} v^{2} }{8u^{3} * u^{2} }.


We can now simplify the bottom to read: 8u^{5} because when multiplying variables raised to an exponent, we add the exponents.  The expression now looks like:

\frac{2u^{3} v^{2} }{8u^{5} }


The 2/8 simplifies to 1/4:

\frac{u^{3} v^{2} }{4u^{5} }


Now, we have two u terms on the top and bottom.  When dividing variables raised to an exponent, we subtract the exponents.  However, since 3-5=-2, the term will be on the bottom to avoid the negative exponent.  The final answer is:

\frac{v^{2} }{4u^{2} }


Hope this makes sense!!

What is the value of y in the equation 4 + y = −3?<br><br> 7<br> 1<br> −1<br> −7
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

-7 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

4 + y = -3

Subtract 4 from both sides

4 (-4) + y = -3 (-4)

y = -3 - 4

y = -7

-7, or (D) is your answer
