c. A 40-foot ladder reaches 38 feet up the side of a house. How far from the base of the
house is the foot of the ladder?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 12.48

Step-by-step explanation:

38x38+bxb=40x40

1444+b=1600

1600-1444=156

[tex]\sqrt156[/tex]=12.48

C. A 40-foot Ladder Reaches 38 Feet Up The Side Of A House. How Far From The Base Of Thehouse Is The
Answer 2

The base of the house is 12.48 foot far from the foot of the ladder.

What is the Pythagoras theorem?

The Pythagoras theorem states that the square of the longest side must be equal to the sum of the square of the other two sides in a right-angle triangle.

|AC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |BC|^2    

It is given that A 40-foot ladder reaches 38 feet up the side of a house.

We need to find that How far from the base of the house is the foot of the ladder.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get;

[tex]38^2 + b^2 =40^2\\\\1444 + b^2 = 1600\\ \\b^2 = 1600 - 1444 \\\\b^2= 156\\\\b = 12.48[/tex]

Therefore, the base of the house is 12.48 foot far from the foot of the ladder.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x^2 – 10x + 2

Let x = -7

f(-7) = 4(-7)^2 – 10(-7) + 2

     Exponents first

f(-7) = 4(49) – 10(-7) + 2

The two angles from a straight line. so, they add to 180° .

b + 68° = 180°

15. 70° because a right angle is 90° and we have the angle of ADB which is 20°. So 90°-20°=70°.

16. 70° because angle PSQ is 60° and angle QSR is 10°. So 60°+10°=70°.

17. 55° because it says it in the explanation. I assume this is a typo and they meant to ask the measurement of ADC and in that case it would be 130° because angle ADB is 75° and angle BDC is 55°. 75°+55°=130°.

18. 40° because angle PSQ is a right angle which means it's 90°. So 130°-90°=40°.

19. 140° because angle ADB is 120° and angle BDC is 20° so 120°+20°=140°.

20. 125° because again it's in the explanation. But if it's a typo and they meant what is the measurement of PSQ then it is 50° because PSR is 125° and QSR is 75° so 125°-75°=50°.

Find the surface area of the space figure represented by the net.

245.5 cm2

263 cm2

173.5 cm2

191 cm2

Answers

Answer:

B. 263 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the figure represented by the net = area of all parts of the net which consists of 3 rectangles and 2 triangles

✔️Area of the first two equal rectangles = 2(L*W)

L = 12 cm

W = 6 cm

Area of the first two equal rectangles = 2(12*6)

= 144 cm²

✔️Area of the third rectangle = L*W

L = 12 cm

W = 7 cm

Area = 12*7

= 84 cm²

✔️Area of the two equal triangles = 2(½*b*h) = b*h

b = 7 cm

h = 5 cm

Area = 7*5

= 35 cm²

✔️Surface area of the space figure = 144 + 84 + 35

= 263 cm²

f(x)=(2x+1)(x-3)

Answers

Answer:  x = -1/2    or   x = 3

===================================================

Explanation:

Set each factor equal to zero and solve for x. This is using the zero product property.

(2x+1)(x-3) = 0

2x+1 = 0    or    x-3 = 0

2x = -1     or    x = 3

x = -1/2    or   x = 3

If you graphed the function, you should see that it crosses the x axis at -1/2 and at 3.

The sum of two numbers is 45. One number is 9 more than the
other one. Find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

27+18=45

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=45

x+9=y

(x+9)+x=45

(18+9)+18=45

27+18=45

The value of the two numbers 'x' and 'y' will be 18 and 27., respectively.

What is the solution to the equation?

The allocation of weights to the important variables that produce the calculation's optimum is referred to as a direct consequence.

The sum of the two numbers is 45. One number is 9 more than the other one.

Let the two numbers be 'x' and 'y'. Then the equations are given as,

y = x + 9              ...1

x + y = 45           ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then we have

x + x + 9 = 45

2x = 36

x = 18

The value of the variable 'y' is given as,

y = 18 + 9

y = 27

The value of the two numbers 'x' and 'y' will be 18 and 27., respectively.

how many ways can Aileen choose 2 pizza toppings from a menu of 19 toppings if each topping can only be chosen one​

Answers

Answer:

There are 342 different combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, Aileen is choosing toppings for a pizza.

She can choose two.

There are 19 options that can be chosen once.

The first thing we need to do, is find all the "selections".

Here we have two selections:

Topping number 1

Topping number 2.

Now we need to find the number of options for each one of these selections:

Topping number 1:  Here we have 19 options.

Topping number 2:  Here we have 18 options (because one was already taken in the previous selection)

The total number of combinations is equal to the product between the numbers of options.

C = 19*18 = 342

There are 342 different combinations.

In geometry, a heptagon is a seven-sided polygon or 7-gon.

I don’t understand the problem or question

Answers

Answer:

Part A

a. Could be a parallelogram but cannot be a rectangle

Part B

c. 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The polygon constructed by Andrew = Four sided polygon having no right angles

From the given four sided polygon (quadrilateral) options, the options which can have no right angles are the parallelogram, and rhombus

The rectangle, and square both have 4 right angles

Therefore, the polygon can be either a parallelogram or a rhombus, but cannot be either a rectangle or square

The correct option is therefore, 'His polygon could be a parallelogram but cannot be a rectangle'

Part B

The given parameters of the rhombus EFGH are;

Angle E = 3·x + 5, angle H = 4·x

The characteristics of a rhombus are;

The sum of the interior angles of a rhombus = 360°

The opposite angles of a rhombus are equal

The sum of the adjacent angles = 180° (The adjacent angles are supplementary)

Therefore, in the rhombus EFGH, we have;

Angle E, and angle H are supplementary angles

∴ Angle E + angle H = 180°

Substituting the values of angle E and angle H gives;

3·x + 5 + 4·x = 180°

7·x = 180° - 5 = 175°

x = 175°/7 = 25°

Angle H = 4·x

∴ Angle H = 4 × 25° = 100°

Angle H = 100°

Angle F = angle H = 100°

Therefore, angle F = 100°
