B: Alex is 12 years older than George.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The ratio of George age to Carl's age is 1:12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of George be 'g'.

Let the age of Alex be 'a'.

Also Let the age of Carl be 'c'.

Given:

The sum of their ages is 68.

So equation can be framed as;

$g+a+c=68 \ \ \ \ equation 1$

Also Given:

Alex is 12 years older than George.

So equation can be framed as;

$a =g+12 \ \ \ \ equation \ 2$

Now Given:

Carl is three times older than Alex.

$c=3a$

But $a =g+12$

So we get;

$c = 3(g+12) \\\\c= 3g+36 \ \ \ \ equation \ 3$

Now Substituting equation 2 and equation 3 in equation 1 we get;

$g+a+c=68\\\\g+g+12+3g+36=68\\\\5g+48=68$

Subtracting both side by 48 using subtraction property of equality we get;

$5g+48-48=68-48\\\\5g=20$

Now Dividing both side by 5 using Division property of equality we get;

$\frac{5g}{5}=\frac{20}{5}\\\\g =4$

Hence George age $g = 4 \ years$

Now Alex age $a=g+12 = 4+12 =16\ years$

Also Carl's age $c=3g+36=3\times 4+36 =12+36 =48\ years$

Now we need to find the ratio of George age to Carl's age.

$\frac{g}{c}=\frac{4}{48} = \frac{1}{12}$

Hence the ratio of George age to Carl's age is 1:12.

A ladder is leaning against a building so that the distance from the ground to the top of the latter is 1 foot less than the len

masha68 [24]

Answer:

$25\text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder, ground, and building form a right triangle where the vertical distance between the top of the ladder and the bottom of the ground is one leg, the horizontal distance between the bottom of the ladder and the building is another leg, and the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse.

For any right triangle, the Pythagorean Theorem states that the sum of the squares of both legs is equal to the hypotenuse squared ( $a^2+b^2=c^2$ ), where $c$ is the hypotenuse.

Let the length of the ladder be $\ell$ (hypotenuse of right triangle). The distance between the top of the ladder and the ground (vertical distance) can be represented as $\ell -1$ .
