Answer:
39 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question;
let length of ladder =x feet
height of ladder will be=x-3 feet
ground distance of ladder bottom to building=15 feet
Applying Pythagorean relation
a²+b²=c²
where a=15 feet b=x-3 feet and c=x feet thus
x²-15²=(x-3)²
x²-225=x²-6x+9
collect like term
x²-x²-225-9=-6x
-234= -6x
x= 39 feet length of ladder
distance from ground to top of ladder= 39-3=36 feet
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
formula k = y/x
comes from
y = kx
k = constant of variation
when y = 3 , x = 2
k = 3/2
X = 2, y = -1 Answer = -1
x = 0, y = 2.5 Answer = -11.25
x = -1, y = -3 Answer = 14
x = 0.5, y = -0.1 (one tenths) Answer = 0.44
x = 0.75 (three quarters), y = 0.4 (two fifths) Answer = 1.665
x = 1.41 (sqareroot of 2), y = 1.41 (sqareroot of 2) Answer = 9.17
I hope this helps!
