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)

The LCM of three numbers is 7920 and their GCD is 12. Two of the numbers are 48 and 264. Using factor notation find the third nu
12345 [234]

Answer:

The third number is 180.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the third number be 9x where x is an integer.

48 = 2*2*2*2*3

264 = 2*2*2*3*11

9x = 3*3*x

2*2*2*2*3*3*11*x = 7920y where y is an integer

1584x = 7920y

so x = 7920y / 1584= 5y.

Now the GCD is 12  so x must have  4 as one of its factors.

Also x is a multiple of 5 so it could be 20 then y  would be 4.

If x = 20 then the third number is 9*20 = 180.

This checks out OK.

Solve the equation. Round to the nearest thousandth. -12e-x + 8 = 7​
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

-12e-x + 8 = 7

-12e-x = 7-8

-12e-x = -1

12e-x = 1

e-x = 1/12

ln(e-x) = ln(1/12)

x = -ln(1/12)

x = -2.485
