Answer:

The crane will go 40 ft up the building wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem, a²+b²=c².

First, we know that the crane is stationed 30 ft away from the building. As such, we know this is one of the legs of our right triangle. We also know that the hypotenuse is the boom of a construction crane, so we know that 50 will be c. Now, we simply plug in the equation. Remember that the building height will be the other missing leg we need to find.

30²+b²=50²

900+b²=2500

900-900+b²=2500-900

b²=1600

√b²=√1600

b=40

The crane will reach up to 40 ft up the building.

Wen takes a job with a starting salary of $100,000 for the first year. she earns a 3% increase each year. what does s5 represent
steposvetlana [31]
S_{n} = \frac{ a_{1}(1- r^{n})  }{1-r} a_{1} = 100000, r=1.03, n=5
S_{5} = \frac{100000(1- 1.03^{5}) }{1-1.03} = \frac{100000(-.159)}{-.03} =530,000

So after 5 years she is making $530,000.

Hope that helps

I buy a MP3 player for £40 in a sale where it was 20% off. What was the original price
natta225 [31]
20% off means you paid only 80% of the original price.
0.8x=40
x=40÷0.8=50
so the original price is 50

Prob( Rolling a 4) = 12/50

Prob( Rolling a 3) = 8/50

When the combined probabilities contain  an 'OR' we Add the probability values:

Probability of a 3 or a 4  

= 12/50 + 8/50
