The answer is √91 feet (which is the same as 9.54 feet).
Imagine this as a right triangle. A length of the foot is actually a hypotenuse (c). The distance from wall's base to the ladder foot is one of the sides of the triangle (let it be a).
So, using the Pythagorean theorem:
c² = a² + b²
It is given:
c = 10 feet
a = 3 feet
b = ?
c² = a² + b²
⇒ 10² = 3² + b²
100 = 9 + b²
b² = 100 - 9 = 91
⇒ b = √b² = √91 ≈ 9.54 feet
Answer:
The average is 1550
Step-by-step explanation:
idk how to do this i just looked up an average calculator
Since we’re trying to find minutes, concert all known information to minutes
1 hr 15 mins = 75 mins
1 hr 30 mins = 90 mins
Next, calculate how many total minutes Gage has skated in the first 8 days
75(5) + 90(3) = 645 mins
Create an equation to find the average of Gage’s minutes of skating. Add up all the minutes and divide by the total amount of days and set equal to 85, the average we are trying to get.
(645 mins + x mins)/9 days = 85
Solve for x
645 + x = 765
x = 120
So, in order to have an average of an 85 minute skate time, Gage would need to skate 120 minutes on the ninth day.
A straight line is 180°. So you can do:
(15x - 4) + (5x - 8) = 180 Simplify
20x - 12 = 180
20x = 192 Find the value of x
x = 9.6
m∠ABD = 15x - 4 Plug in x = 9.6
m∠ABD = 15(9.6) - 4 = 144 - 4 = 140°
m∠DBC = 5x - 8 Plug in 9.6
m∠DBC = 5(9.6) - 8 = 48 - 8 = 40°
I think the answer is True
