Makayla leans a 18-foot ladder against a wall so that it forms an angle of 64 degrees with the ground. What’s the horizontal distance between the base of the ladder and the wall? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot if necessary.

Please help me, I don’t understand the problem!

Answers

Answer 1

The ladder and the outside wall form a right triangle

The distance from the base of the ladder is 7.89 feet

How to determine the distance to the base of the ladder?

The given parameters are:

Length (L) = 18 feet

Angle of elevation (θ) = 64 degrees

The distance (D) from the base of the ladder is calculated using the following cosine ratio

cos(θ) = D/L

So, we have:

cos(64) = D/18

Make L the subject

D = 18 * cos(64)

Evaluate the product

D = 7.89

Hence, the distance from the base of the ladder is 7.89 feet

Answer:

152 sq in

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area just means to find the area of all of the sides of a shape. This triangular prism has been flattened so you can see both bases (triangles) and all three lateral sides (rectangles)

Area of a triangle is:

A = 1/2 b•h

= 1/2 •8•4

= 16

There are 2 of these triangles.

A_bases = 32

Then there are 3 rectangle sides, area of a rectangle is:

A = l × w (or b•h)

6 × 5 = 30

6 × 8 = 48

6 × 7 = 42

Add up all the areas.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the side mostly to the left, its gonna be 3 units, since we can easlily count it

Now, for the diagonals, we have to use the formula for the area of a triangle, which is (l * w) / 2 = a.

For the bottom side, its 3 along the x axis and 1 along the y axis. 3 * 1 is 3, now divide that by 2 and you got 1.5

Now, for the right side, its 5 on the y, 1 on the x. Multiply 1 by 5, you got 5. Now divide that by 2 and you have 2.5

Finally, for the top side, its 4 on the x, and 1 on the y. 4 * 1 is 4, divided by 2 and its 2.

Alright, now we have to add 'em all together. 3 + 1.5 + 2.5 + 2 is 9 units

represents the number of sales. How many sales does Martin need to make to earn $1,000?

Answers

Answer: 26 sales

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plug in 26 you will get exactly $1,000

Martin needs to sale 8 pieces to make it $1000.

How to elaborate the problem ?

Martin has to save $1000.

He is using an app to manage all the sales, but if keeps fraction of every sales.

The equation which represents his net pay is P(x)=[tex]x^{2}+20x-196[/tex]

How many sales does martin need ?

We have to solve the given quadratic equation.

Here, x= (-b±[tex]\sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac }[/tex])/2a

⇒ x= (-20±[tex]\sqrt{400+4*196}[/tex])/2

⇒ x= (-20±[tex]\sqrt{1184}[/tex])/2

⇒ x= -10±[tex]\sqrt{296}[/tex]

⇒ x= -10±17.2

We habe to take the maximum value of x. So we neglect the negative sign.

Hence, x= -10+17.2 = 7.2 = 8 (approx) ,here we can not take 7 because if he sales 7 pieces then the money should less than $1000.

Answers

the answer is among the choices is letter choice B

The solution of the equations y = 2x + 4 and y = x² – x + 4 will be (0, 4) and (3, 10). Then the correct option is C.

What is the solution of the equation?

The solution of the equation means the value of the unknown or variable.

The system of the equations are given below.

y = 2x + 4            …1

y = x² – x + 4       …2

From equation 1 and 2, then the equation will be

x² – x + 4 = 2x + 4

   x² – 3x = 0

  x(x – 3) = 0

            x = 0, 3

At x = 0, the value of the y will be

y = 2(0) + 4

y = 0+ 4

y = 4

At x = 3, the value of the y will be

y = 2(3) + 4

y = 6 + 4

y = 10

Thus, the solution of the equations will be (0, 4) and (3, 10).

Then the correct option is C.

Answers

Answer:

E. 12 red, 6 green, 4 blue

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of colored pencils for each color, we must find ratios.

480 red: 240 green: 160 blue

Then we divide them to the simplest ratios.

We divide all the numbers by 80.

6 red: 3 green: 2 blue

There are a total of 11 pencils here. To get 22 pencils, you multiply the ratio by 2 to get 22 pencils.

12 red: 6 green: 4 blue

The pencils of each color are 12 red, 6 green, 4 blue. The correct option is E.

What is ratio?

Answers

Answer:

120°

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of angles on adjacent sides= exterior angle

x= 76+44 = 120

Question : -

Find the value of x .

Given : -

Angle 1 = 44°

Angle 2 = 76°

Angle 3 = Not given we can assume it as y°

Angle 4 = x°

To Find : -

We have to find the value of x .

Concept : -

The concept of this question belongs to sum of internal angles of triangle and Linear pair of angles .

Solution : -

Firstly , we are finding value of angle y. So sum of Angle 1 , Angle 2 and Angle y is equal to 180° because sum of all angles of internal triangle is 180°. So :

44° + 76° + y° = 180°

120° + y° = 180°

y° = 180° - 120°

y° = 60°

Therefore , value of angle y is 60° .

Now , we are finding the value of x :

As we know angle 3 ( y ) and angle 4 ( x ) is equal to 180° because they form linear pair . So :

60° + x° = 180°

x° = 180° - 60°

x° = 120°

Therefore, value of angle x is 120° .

If the labor force is 300,000 workers,
but 24,000 are unemployed, what is the
unemployment percentage?
A. 3%
B. 8%
C. 18%
D. 24%

Answers

Answer:

8%

Step-by step explanation:

We are given:

Total workers: 300,000Unemployed workers: 24,000

The formula to determine the percentage of unemployed workers in the total workers, we need to divide the number of unemployed works by the total workers in the labor force. Then, multiply the quotient by 100 to obtain the percentage of unemployed workers.

Formula:

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Unemployed workers}}{\text{Total workers} } \times 100 = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Substitute the given values into the formula to determine the percentage of unemployed workers in the labor force.

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\text{24,000}}{\text{300,000} } \times 100 = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Now, simplify the equation.  The easiest way to simplify the equation is to temporially ignore the "100".

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\text{24,000}}{\text{300,000} } = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Then, cancel the "0's" on the L.H.S. This is a good way to simplify the equation on the L.H.S

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\text{24}}{\text{300} } = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Don't forget to multiply the result by 100 as it was temporaily hidden.

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\text{24}}{\text{300} } \times 100= \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Let 100 be 100/1. Thus, our equation will be:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\text{24}}{\text{300} } \times \dfrac{100}{1} = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Multiply the numerator with the numerator and the denominator with the denominator.

[tex]\implies \dfrac{24 \times 100}{\text{300} \times 1} } = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2400}{\text{300} } = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Cancel the "0's" on the L.H.S to make it easier to simplify.

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2400}{\text{300} } = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{24}{\text{3} } = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 8 = \text{Percentage of unemployed workers}[/tex]

Thus, 8% of the workers are unemployed workers.

If you bought a T-bill for $99.44 and held it for 180 days, what would be your return?

Answers

Answer:

  about 1.14%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you can redeem the T-bill for $100 at the end of the period, the interest rate can be found from the formula for simple interest:

  I = Prt . . . . where P is the principal invested, r is the annual rate, and t is the number of years.

__

Here, we have ...

  (100 -99.44) = 99.44·r·(180/365) . . . . held for a fraction of a year

  0.56×365/(99.44×180) = r ≈ 0.0114195 ≈ 1.14% . . . . divide by the coefficient of r

Your return would be about 1.14%.
