First we need to find how far away the base of the ladder is from what it is leaning against. The ramp is the hypotenuse and the height from the ground in a leg. Let’s use Pythagorean’s theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Substitute

a^2 + (5)^2 = (20)^2

Solve for a^2

a^2 = (20)^2 - (5)^2

Solve for a

a = 5 √15

The slope will be rise over run

5/5 √15 = √15/15 or 0.258…

If f(x) = 3LX-2], what is f(5.9)? 9 10 11 12​
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that , the ceiling function y = [x] is also known as the least integer function that gives the smallest integer greater than or equal to x.

For example : For x= 1.5

y = [1.5] =2

For x= 3.64

y = ⌊3.64⌋=4

The given function :

Then, for x= 5.9 , we have

[since [3.9]=4 (least integer function)]

Therefore, the value of f(5.9) is 12

Answer:

1. $33.00

2. $48.00

3. $3.00

4. $36.40

Step-by-step explanation:

44.00 - 25% = 33 —> $33.00

80.00 - 40% = 48 —> $48.00

9.99 - 70% = 2.997 —> (round the 7 up because it's above 5) $3.00

52.00 - 30% = 36.4 —> $36.40

How would I set up question one?
Darina [25.2K]

A straight line is 180 degrees:

25x + 8 + 9x + 2 = 180

Combine like terms:

34x + 10 = 180

Subtract 10 from both sides:

34x = 170

Divide both sides by 34:

X = 5

Now solve the smaller angle:

9x + 2 = 9(5) + 2 = 45 + 2 = 47

They angle with the y is a vertical angle to 47 so needs to also equal 47:

7y + 5 = 47

Subtract 5 from both sides:

7y = 42

Divide both sides by 7:

Y = 6

Answer: x = 5, y = 6
