Answer:

The ladder meets the wall at 17.29 feet from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem ⇒ a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + b^2 = 18^2

25 + b^2 = 324

b^2 = 299

b = 17.291616

PLS HELP ME 50 POINTS!!!!! I NEED AN ANSWER ASAP!!!!!!
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

They went up 16 levels.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find that by finding the distance from -2 to 14.
To find the distance from two numbers, a and b, we can substitute both in the formula d = |b - a|, where d is the distance between them.

d = |14 - (-2)| \to |14 + 2|\to|16|\to16

Rectangle ABCD has vertices at A(-1,1), B(2,1), C(2,-5), and D(-1,-5). What is the perimeter of rectangle
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The perimeter of the rectangle is 18 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The image included below presents the location of the points on the Cartesian plane. From Geometry we get that the perimeter (p), dimensionless, of the rectangle is the sum of its four sides. That is to say:

p = AB+BC+CD+DA (1)

Where AB, BC, CD and DA are the sides of the rectangle, dimensionless.

Each side value is found by means of the Pythagorean Theorem:

AB = \sqrt{[2-(-1)]^{2}+(1-1)^{2}}

AB = 3

BC = \sqrt{(2-2)^{2}+[(-5)-1]^{2}}

BC = 6

CD = \sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(5-5)^{2}}

CD = 3

DA = \sqrt{(-1-1)^{2}+[1-(-5)]^{2}}

DA = 6

And the perimeter of the rectangle is:

p = 3+6+3+6

p = 18

The perimeter of the rectangle is 18 units.

stadium has 49,000 seats. Seats sell for ​$42 in Section​ A, ​$36 in Section​ B, and ​$30 in Section C. The number of seats in S
REY [17]
Congrats on getting that far!

From here, simplify the equation by dividing each term by the greatest common factor: 6.

36B + 30C = 822600 becomes 6B + 5C = 137100

Now you have stackable simultaneous equations that you can easily work with:

6B + 5C = 137100

B + C = 24500

Multiply the terms in the second equation by either 6 or 5 so that you can subtract the second equation from the first equation and cancel out the B or C, respectively.

Example:

6B + 5C = 137100

minus 5B + 5C = 122500

equals B = 14600

Then plug your answer into the B + C = 24500 equation to find C.

Finally plug B and C into the A + C + B = 49000 equation to get A.
