This seems like a right triangle problem.
So assuming 14 feet is the hypotenuse and 4 feet is a leg of the right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem () to solve for the height of the house, in which we shall name it x.
So, the equation is .
Solve for x:
16+x^{2}= 196
x^{2}= 196-16
x^{2}= 180
x = 6√5 feet
Hope this helps!
L represent Option A. The correct answer is that the mixture has the intended volume and has more than the intended percent of butterfat.
<h3>What is the graph about?</h3>Note that:
The graph shows that the point L is one that is below the blue line of the graph.
Therefore, x + y = 500
Also one need to see that:
0.18x + 0.04y = 500(0.12)
Since that cream is 18% butterfat, milk is 4% butterfat, so L is composed of of 350 ml of cream and 100 ml of milk.
Hence the total amount of butterfat for L is:
0.18 x 350 + 0.04 x 100
= 67ml.
Next, one has to calculate 12% of the volume of L :
12% of 450:
0.12 x 450 = 54ml
So, because 67 is bigger than 54, this implies that the volume of butter fat in L is more than 12 %.
