Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple matter of using Pythagoras. The hypotenuse is the ladder, and one of the legs is the wall, and we have to figure out the value of the other leg.

The Pythagorean formuda is (hypotenuse = a): a² + b² = c² (b and c are the other sides)

applying the values: a = 5 and b or c is 3 (I'll put b = 3)

5² = 3² + c²

25 = 9 + c²

25 - 9 = c²

16 = c²

√16 = c

4 = c

c = 4

On a manufacturer's assembly line, 3% of its merchandise comes off defective. If the company has 354 defective items, how many t
evablogger [386]

Answer: this is the steps to working the problem and the answer is 54: 3% means 3 out of each 100. if you have 100 items, 3% is just 3. You need more than 100 times as many (you want 354), so x must be more than 100 * 100, right? 3% of 10.62 is less than 1, and the problem says there are 354 :-)

A Florida factory produces fishing reels at a rate of 800 per day, every day. In April, they are forced to cut their production
Bingel [31]

Multiply 800 to 4/5 to see how much they make per day.

800 * 4/5 = 640

So, they make 640 fishing reels per day.

Multiply this to 30:

640 * 30 = 19,200

So they will make 19,200 fishing reels in 30 days.

This is not enough for the order.

What is the sum of the infinite geometric series?
nikitadnepr [17]
An infinite geometric series is the sum of an infinite geometric sequence . This series would have no last term. The general form of the infinite geometric series is a1+a1r+a1r2+a1r3+... , where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio. We can find the sum of all finite geometric series.

On what I’ve researched :)
