Answer:
20 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoreans theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 12, squared = 144
b = 16, squared = 256
144 + 256 = 400
√400 = 20
20 feet is the answer.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
4y-9+4y simplified by combining like terms is 8y-9
Let the first term be a(0). Then the formula for a(n) is a(0)-18(n-1).
Check: What's the first term? Let n = 1: a(1) = a(0)-18(1-1) = a(0) (correct)
What's the second term? Let -n =2: a(2) = a(0)-18(2-1) = a(0) - 18
and so on.
12(3w+8)=25
36w+96=25 ( I used the distributive property)
-96 . -96
36w=-71
w=-1.972222.... ( I divided both sides by 36)
Answer:
AE = 15 cm; ED = 18 cm; AD = 15 cm (given)
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔBEC ~ ΔAED so ...
AD/BC = AE/BE = (BE+AB)/BE = 1 + AB/BE
Substituting given numbers (lengths in centimeters), we have ...
15/10 = 1 + 5/BE
1/2 = 5/BE
BE = 10
Similarly, ...
1/2 = 6/CE
CE = 12
Then the unknown sides are ...
AE = AB + BE = 5 + 10 = 15 . . . cm
ED = CE + CD = 12 + 6 = 18 . . . cm
