Answer:
In the equation, it divides 21 by x before knowing what x is, and gets it incorrect. Instead, you need to divide 21 by -4.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
-4.2x = 21
-------------
-4.2
x = -5
Answer: the distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder is 6.84 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The scenario is shown in the attached photo.
Right angle triangle ABC is formed when the ladder leans against the wall of the house.
AC = the height of the ladder
AB = x feet = distance of the base of the house to the foot of the ladder
BC is the wall of the building.
To determine x, we will apply trigonometric ratio
Cos # = adjacent/hypotenuse
Where
# = 70 degrees
Hypotenuse = 20
Adjacent = x
Cos 70 = x/20
x = 20cos70
x = 20 × 0.3420
x = 6.84 feets
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
We let the length of the square be l, the diagonal be z and the area be A.
Then by Pythagoras theorem;

The are of a square of length l is given as;

Combining these two equations yields;


Next, we have been given;

We are required to find;
when z = 4
By chain rule;

Differentiating
with respect to z yields;

Therefore,
= 8z
When z is 4m the area of the square will be increasing at a rate of;
8m/min * 4m = 32
Answer:
Volume of triangular prism & cube (video)Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The acute angles of a right-angled triangle other than the right angle always add up to 90 degrees.
<u>So, we get:</u>
(48 - x) + (3x - 10) = 90
48 - x + 3x - 10 = 90
-x + 3x - 10 + 48 = 90
2x + 38 = 90
2x = 90 - 38
2x = 52
Divide both sides by 2
x = 52 / 2
x = 26
