Answer:

$5x - 6 = 3x + 4 \\ 5x - 3x = 4 + 6 \\ 2x = 10 \\ x = 10 \div2 \\ x = 5 \\ length \: of \: xy = 3 \times 5 + 4 \\ = 15 + 4 \\ = 19$

Answer: 19

Step-by-step explanation:

From the properties of the kite, we know that line segment XY is congruent to line segment ZY. Keep in mind, the variable we need to solve for this question is x!

From this, we can say that;

3x+4=5x-6

Plus 6 on both sides to get

3x+10=5x

Minus 3x on both sides to get

10=2x

divide both sides by 2 to get

5=x

now plug the x value 5, into the equation XY

3 times 5 + 4

multiplication goes first!

15+4=19

A 20 foot ladder leaning against a wall is used to reach a window that is 17 feet above the ground. How far from the wall is the

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The wall is 10.5 foot far from the bottom of the ladder.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of the ladder leaning against wall (Hypotenuse) = 20 foot.

Height from where the window is above from the ground (Leg1) = 17 feet.

To find the distance of the bottom of the ladder far from the wall (Leg2) = ?

Now, by using the pythagorean theorem:

$Hypotenuse^{2} = (Leg1)^{2} + (Leg2)^{2}$

$20^{2} =17^{2}+(Leg2) ^{2}$

$400=289+(Leg2)^{2}$

$400-289=(Leg2)^{2}$

$111=(Leg2)^{2}$

by squaring both sides

$Leg2=10.535$

10.535 foot rounded nearest tenth is 10.5 foot.

Therefore, the wall is 10.5 foot far from the bottom of the ladder.
