So leangh of ladder=2x+1
bottom edgre=x-1
wall edge=2x
so therefor, since this is a right triangle, use pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonues=longest side
b and a=sides touching the right angle
so x-1 and 2x are a and b
2x+1=c
subsitute
(x-1)^2+(2x)^2=(2x+1)^2
x^2-2x+1+4x^2=4x^2+4x+1
add like terms
5x^2-2x+1=4x^2+4x+1
subtract 1 from both sdies
5x^2-2x=4x^2+4x
subtract 4x from both sdies
5x^2-6x=4x^2
subtract 4x^2 from both sides
x^2-6x =0
factor out the x using distributive property which is
ab+ac=a(b+c)
x^2-6x=x(x-6)
(x)(x-6)=0
if xy=0 then assume x and/or y=0
x=0
we remember that one of the side legnths is 2x and if x=0 then the side legnth=0 which is not possible, so we discard
x-6=0
add 6 to both sides
x=6
subsitute and solve
legnth of ladder=2x+1
x=6 subsitute
2(6)+1=12+1=13
legnth of ladder =13 feet
height=2x
2(6)=12
height=12 feet
base=x-1
6-1=5
legnth of ladder=13 feet
height=12 feet
base=5 feet
Answer:
6 times.
Step-by-step explanation:
23 times 6 is 168, so the remainder would be 5.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let d= dramas
c= comedies
r= reality shows
Dramas are 1 hour long, comedies are 30 minutes, and reality shows are 2 hours long.
Total time spent on watching = 
[
]
Since he spent 8 hours for this, that means
→ First equation
He watches twice as many comedies as dramas.
i.e.
→ second equation
So, the system of equations could be used to determine how many of each type of show he watches each week:

Answer:
64 3/16 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Total distance walked = 16 3/4 miles = 67/4 miles (converted to improper fraction to help with division later)
number of days walked = 4 days
Miles walked per day = total distance walked ÷ number of days
= 16 3/4 ÷ 4
= 67/4 ÷ 4
= 67/4 x 1/4
= 67/16
= 64 3/16 miles
