A ladder reaches 6 m up a wall with its foot 2·4 m from the wall. A person standing under the ladder at a point 80 cm from its foot would be able to touch the ladder at a height of _____ m from the ground.​

Answers

Answer 1

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that the ladder reaches a height of 6m from the ground while being 2.4 m from the wall. The ratio of the height to the length from the wall is 6:2.4 which can actually just simplify to 2.5 because 6m to is 2.4*2.5.

This person is 80 cm from the ladder's base. We just saw that you can take the distance from the wall (in this case, our wall is the human as the human is touching the height) and multiply it by 2.5 to find the height of the ladder at that specific point. So let's do that.

80*2.5= 200

We are looking for meters though. Since there are 100 centimeters in a meter, this is just going to be 2 meters.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3(x−3)^2+75

Answer:

(x - 3)² = - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 3x² = - 18x + 102 ( add 18x to both sides )

- 3x² + 18x = 102 ( divide through by - 3 )

x² - 6x = - 34

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = - 34 + 9

(x - 3)² = - 25

Answers

Answer:

x = 67°

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 base angles x are congruent , then

x = [tex]\frac{180-46}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{134}{2}[/tex] = 67°

Answer:

X= 67 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles must add up to 180°. This is an isosceles triangle which means once you have one degree you can find the other two.

In order to get the answer start with 180°-46°

180-46=134

The two x's equal each other. So you can divide the remaining degrees by 2 to get the answer.

134÷2=67.

So the answer is 67°.

Evaluate ab+bc+ca . If a²+b²+c²=50 and a+b+c=12​

Answers

Answer:

ab+bc+ac=47

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+b+c)=12

Square both sides

a^2+b^2+c^2+2(ab+bc+ac)=144

2(ab+bc+ac)=94

ab+bc+ac=47

Answer:

ab + bc + ca = 47

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the algebraic identity

(a + b + c) = a² + b² + c² + 2(ab + bc + ca) , then

12² = 50 + 2(ab + bc + ca)

144 = 50 + 2(ab + bc + ca) ← subtract 50 from both sides

94 = 2(ab + bc + ca) ← divide both sides by 2

47 = ab + bc + ca

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

ln(e)=1 since ln= log_e

log(x^y)=y*log(x) so ln(e^4)=4*ln(4)=4*1=4

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

ln(e^4)

The 4 comes down in front of the natural log (ln). You get 4 ln(e)

The natural log of e (ln e )  is 1.

So the answer is 4 * 1 = 4

That may not be clear to you. We could try it another way.

e = 2.718281828

ln (2.718281828) = 1

ln(2.718281828)^4 = 4.  The calculator gags until you get it right.  You need the y^x key (or the x^y key of ^) It does come back with 4.

You have to monkey around with the calculator to get this to happen.

Answer:

x=5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of ABCD=85

The perimeter is everything around the outside added together.

Form an equation:

3x+4+4x+6x-11+5x-7=85

Collect the like terms:

Like terms are terms that have the same powers and coefficient.

3x+4x+6x+5x=18x

4-11-7= -14

Put it back into an equation:

18x-14=85

Do inverse operations to find out what x is:

85+14=99

18x=99

99÷18=5.5 (we divide because, in algebra, when a number is next to a letter, it means times and as we want the inverse, you would have to divide)

x=5.5

TRIG EXPERTS!! PLZZZ HELP! I'LL GIVE BRAINLY TO HELPFUL ANSWER AND REPORT SCAMS!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]28.07^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use basic trig. for a right triangle to solve this problem. In any right triangle, the tangent of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse (longest side) of the triangle.

The right triangle we're looking at involves the two dotted lines and an edge of the prism.

The bottom dotted line is a diagonal of the rectangular base of the prism. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find its length.

The Pythagorean Theorem states that for any right triangle, [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex], where [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are the two legs of the triangle and [tex]c[/tex] is the hypotenuse.

In this case, the two legs are 9 and 12 and we are solving for [tex]c[/tex]:

[tex]9^2+12^2=c^2,\\81+144=c^2,\\225=c^2,\\c=15[/tex]

This is theta's adjacent side. Its opposite side is an edge of the prism labelled as 8 inches. Therefore, we have the following equation:

[tex]\tan \theta = \frac{8}{15}[/tex]

Take the inverse tangent of both sides:

[tex]\arctan(\tan \theta)=\arctan(\frac{8}{15})[/tex]

Simplify using [tex]\arctan(\tan\theta)=\theta, \theta \in (-90^{\circ}, 90^{\circ})[/tex]:

[tex]\theta=\arctan(\frac{8}{15}),\\\theta=28.07248694\approx \boxed{28.07^{\circ}}[/tex]

Rewrite 13/2 to have 8 as the denominator:

13/2 x 4 = 52/8

X = 52/8 + 3/8

X = 55/8

Answer:

55/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 3/8 to both sides

X - 3/8 = 13/2

X = 13/2 + 3/8

make sure the denominators are equal so we can add. so multiply 4/4 by 13/2 and that equals 52/8

X = 52/8+3/8

X= 55/8

Step-by-step explanation:

To round 553 to the tens place, we would need to identify the value of the digit in the ones place.

If the digit in the ones place is greater than 5, we increase the tens place by 1 & convert the ones place into a 0.

If not, we leave the tens place as is & convert the ones place into a 0.
