A radio station requires DJs to play 2 commercials for every 10 songs they play.What is the unit rate of songs to commercial?

slavikrds [6]

The correct answer for this question is that the unit rate is 5:1. We can work this out by simplifying down the 2 commercials to every 10 songs ration, so that 10:2 becomes 5:1. We can work this out by halving the original ratio to simplify it.

A ladder is leaning up against a house. The ladder is 20 feet long and the base of the ladder is 12 feet away from the house. Ho

MrRa [10]

Answer:

16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the ladder=20 feet

Distance from the base of the ladder to the house = 12 feet

You will notice that a wall is vertical and the ladder makes an angle with the horizontal ground(making it the hypotenuse). This is a right triangle problem.

To find the how far up the house can the ladder can reach, we simply find the third side of the right triangle.

From Pythagoras theorem

$Hyp^2=Opp^2+Adj^2\\20^2=12^2+Adj^2\\Adj^2=400-144\\Adj^2=256\\Adj=\sqrt{256}=16$

The third side of the right triangle is 16. Therefore the ladder leans 16 feet from the ground.
