a 65 foot ladder is leaning against a well. Its lower end is 25 feet away from the wall. How much farther away will it be if upp

Crazy boy [7]

<h3>Answer: 14 feet</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

Check out the diagrams below.

We'll start with the left diagram (marked "before") which is a right triangle with the horizontal leg of 25 feet and hypotenuse 65 feet.

Use the pythagorean theorem to find the vertical side x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

25^2 + x^2 = 65^2

625 + x^2 = 4225

x^2 = 4225 - 625

x^2 = 3600

x = sqrt(3600)

x = 60

The top of the ladder is 60 feet high when placed against the wall in this configuration.

------------------

If the upper end is moved down 8 feet, then x-8 = 60-8 = 52 feet is the new height of the ladder. Refer to the "after" in the diagram below.

Like earlier, we'll use the pythagorean theorem to find the missing side.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

y^2 + 52^2 = 65^2

y^2 + 2704 = 4225

y^2 = 4225 - 2704

y^2 = 1521

y = sqrt(1521)

y = 39

The horizontal distance from the ladder base to the wall is now 39 feet.

Earlier it was 25 feet, so it has increased by 39-25 = 14 feet.

Expression 3 + y and 2 (6+y) are equivalent?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

3+y and 12+2y

Step-by-step explanation:

I mean they aren't equivalent because if you do PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract) Then, you would do 2 times 6 because parenthesis, that equals 12 so the answer would be

3+y and 12+2y

Please help me find the value of x

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

$10 \sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Given Question, </h2>

To find the value of x.

<h2>Solution:</h2>

According to Pythagoras Theorem-

${20}^{2} = {10}^{2} + {x}^{2}$

$= > 100 + {x}^{2} = 400$

$= > {x}^{2} = 400 - 100$

$= > {x}^{2} = 300$

$= > x = \sqrt{300}$

$= > x = 10 \sqrt{3}$

<h2>Result:</h2>

Hence, the required value of x is 

 $10\sqrt{3}$
