Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. This is a right triangle where a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (c is the hypotenuse).

step 2. a^2 + 6^2 = 8^2.

step 3. a^2 = 64 - 36.

step 4. a^2 = 28.

step 5. a (the ladder height along the wall) = sqrt (28) where sqrt is the square root.

The cost of renting roller blades is $4 plus $3.50 for each hour that the roller blades are rented. Write an expression to repre
Pavel [41]

Answer:

The expression is equal to 3.50h+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of hours that the roller blades are rented

y ----> the cost of renting roller blades in dollars

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope or unit rate of the linear equation

b is the y-intercept or initial value of the linear equation

In this problem we have

The slope is equal to

m=\$3.50\ per\ hour

The y-intercept is equal to

b=\$4 ----> value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

substitute

y=3.50x+4

For x=h hours

substitute

y=3.50h+4
