Answer:

3.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the distance (d) the distance goes up the wall = adjacent to the angle 75° that is formed with the wall.

Length of ladder = the hypothenuse = 13.5 m

Thus, we would use:

Cos75 = adjacent/hypothenuse

Cos 75 = d/13.5

Multiply both sides by 13.5

13.5*cos(75) = d

13.5*0.2588 = d

3.4938 = d

d ≈ 3.5 m (nearest tenth)

Please help !Suppose that the height in centimeters of a candle is a linear function of them out of time in hours it has been bu
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

  17.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 17 hours between heights of 18.6 cm and 15.2 cm, the candle lost 3.4 cm in height. That is, the height decreased at the rate of ...

  (-3.4 cm)/(17 h) = -0.2 cm/h

In the 4 hours between 12 hours and 16 hours of burning time, the candle will have changed its height by (4 h)(-0.2 cm/h) = -0.8 cm.

The height at 16 hours of burning is then 18.6 cm -0.8 cm = 17.8 cm.

Find the mean,median and range of the following list of values and choose the correct result.
Aloiza [94]

Mean: 10.5

Median: 10.5

Range: 5

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

<u></u>

To find the mean you order the numbers then add then divide.

<u>Add</u>

8+9+10+10+10+11+11+11+12+13=105

<u>Divide</u>

105÷10=10.5

Mean = 10.5

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

<u></u>

Finding the median essentially involves finding the value in a data sample that has a physical location between the rest of the numbers.

Find the middle number. Put your left finger on 8 and your right finger on 13. Move your left finger to the right to 10 and move your right finger to 11.

the middle number is 10.5 so therefore it is the median.

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

<u></u>

To find the range you subtract the biggest number to the smallest number.

<u>Subtract</u>

13-8=5

Therefore 5 is the range
