Can someone explain how to solve for x?​
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the first diagram is similar with the second diagram with ratio 1:2

Ex: Side length of JK is 6 and NP being 12, 6:12→1:2

You can conclude that x:22 needs to follow the ratio of 1:2

Thus, x=11

A ladder is leaning against a wall. The top of the ladder is 9 feet (ft) above the ground. If the bottom of the ladder is moved
Komok [63]

Step 1

<u>First situation</u>

when a ladder is leaning against a wall

Let

x-------> the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall

L-------> the length of the ladder

<u>Find the length of the ladder</u>

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

L^{2} =x^{2}+ 9^{2} ------> equation 1

Step 2

<u>Second situation</u>

when the ladder will be lying flat on the ground

<u>Find the length of the ladder</u>

In this situation the length of the ladder is equal to

L=x+3

square both sides

L^{2}=(x+3)^{2} ------> equation 2

Step 3

equate equation 1 and equation 2

x^{2}+ 9^{2}=(x+3)^{2}\\x^{2}+81=x^{2} +6x+9\\ 6x=81-9\\6x=72\\x=12\ ft

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the length of the ladder is 12\ ft

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
