22 foot ladder is placed against a vertical wall of building with the bottom of the ladder standing on level ground 9 feet from the base of the building how high up the wall does the ladder reach

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

20.1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using the Pythagoras Theorem

The Pythagoras Theorem =

Opposite² + Adjacent ² = Hypotenuse²

From the above question,

Opposite side = Height of the wall = x

Adjacent side = Distance from the base of the building = 9 feet

Hypotenuse = Length of the ladder = 22 feet

Hence:

x² + 9² = 22²

x² = 22² - 9²

x = √22² - 9²

x = √403

x = 20.0748599 feet

Approximately = 20.1 feet

Therefore, the height of the wall = 20.1 feet

What are the coordinates of point S?
(2, -2)

(-2, 2)

(2, 2)

(2, 0)

Answers

Answer:

A: 2, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

the first two represent the x axis and the negative two shows the y axis

Answer:

(2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of points is (x,y)

The x-axis is the horizontal line and the y-axis is the vertical line.

Do you see how the point S is in line with 2 on the x-axis? This means that the x point is 2.

Now look across to the y-axis, do you see how point S is in line with -2? This means that the y point is -2.

Put both points together using (x,y)

(2,-2)

(His new salary is 58,800 and 5% of his normal salary is 2,800)

Your teacher is giving a test that has 5 more four-point questions than six-point questions.
The test is worth 120 points. Which system represents this information?​

Answers

Answer:

x-y=5

4x+6y=120

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = # of 4-point questions

ley y = # of 6-point questions

# of 4-point questions is 5 more than # of 6-point questions

x=y+5 or x-y=5

now there's the matter of the points. Since each x is worth 4 points and each y is worth 6 points, they total number of points have to add up to 120, therefore:

4x+6y=120

The System of Equation is

x-y=5

4x+6y=120

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

let x be number of 4-point questions.

ley y be number of 6-point questions.

as, the 4-point questions is 5 more than 6-point questions

So, x=y+5

or x-y=5.................(1)

Since each x is worth 4 points and each y is worth 6 points, they total number of points is 120.

So, 4x+6y=120....................(2)

A city cat show is underway. Complete with purring, meowing, and an occasional hiss. There are three times as many orange cats as black and white cats, two times as many black and white cats as grey cats, three fewer gray cats then white cats, three times as many white cats as calico cats, and five white cats. How many of each kind of cat is in the show? How many in all?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three times as many orange cats as black and white cats,

o = 3(b + w)

two times as many black and white cats as grey cats,

b + w = 2g

three fewer gray cats than white cats,

g = w - 3

three times as many white cats as calico cats,

w = 3L

and five white cats

w = 5

There is a problem with this.

There are 5 white cats.

There are 3 times as many white cats as calico cats.

That means there are 5/3 calico cats.

How can the number of a certain type f cats be a non-whole number?

It seems that the number of white cats must be a multiple of 3, but 5 is not.
