A 10-foot ladder leans against a wall so that it is 6 feet high at the top. The ladder is moved so that the base of the ladder travels toward the wall twice the distance that the top of the ladder moves up. How much higher is the top of the ladder now? (Hint: Let 8−2x be the distance from the base of the ladder to the wall.)
Answer:
4 ft higher
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the ladder is 10 ft long and its top is 6 feet high(above the ground), we find the distance of its base from the wall since these three (the ladder, wall and ground) form a right angled triangle. Let d be the distance from the wall to the ladder.
So, by Pythagoras' theorem,
10² = 6² + d² (the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse side)
d² = 10² - 6²
d² = 100 - 36
d² = 64
d = √64
d = 8 ft
Since the ladder is moved so that the base of the ladder travels toward the wall twice the distance that the top of the ladder moves up.
Now, let x be the distance the top of the ladder is moved, the new height of top of the ladder is 6 + x. Since the base moves twice the distance the top of the ladder moves up, the new distance for our base is 8 - 2x(It reduces since it gets closer to the wall).
Now, applying Pythagoras' theorem to the ladder with these new lengths, we have
10² = (6 + x)² + (8 - 2x)²
Expanding the brackets, we have
100 = 36 + 12x + x² + 64 - 32x + 4x²
collecting like terms, we have
100 = 4x² + x² + 12x - 32x + 64 + 36
100 = 5x² - 20x + 100
Subtracting 100 from both sides, we have
100 - 100 = 5x² - 20x + 100 - 100
5x² - 20x = 0
Factorizing, we have
5x(x - 4) = 0
5x = 0 or x - 4 = 0
x = 0 or x = 4
The top of the ladder is thus 4 ft higher

Step-by-step explanation:
explain truth tables and how they work
A truth table is a way of organizing information to list out all possible scenarios. We title the first column p for proposition. In the second column we apply the operator to p, in this case it's ~p (read: not p). So as you can see if our premise begins as True and we negate it, we obtain False, and vice versa.
Write a system of equations that represents the situation.
The sum of two numbers is 15. The second number is equal to the first number plus 1.
Let x = the first number Let y = the second number
First sentence: Equation 1:
Second sentence: Equation 2:
Do not include spaces in your equations.
Part 2: Find the numbers. ( ,)
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the first number
Let y = the second number
First sentence: Equation 1: x+y=15
Second sentence: Equation 2: y=x+1
Part 2: Find the numbers.
x + y = 15
y = x + 1
x + x + 1 = 15
2x + 1 = 15
2x = 14
x = 7
y = x + 1 = 7 + 1 = 8
The numbers are 7 and 8.
Answer:
x = 7
y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 15
y = x + 1
Part 2:
x + (x + 1) = 15
x + x + 1 - 1 = 15 - 1
2x = 14
2x/2 = 14/2
x = 7
y = 7 + 1
y = 8
Therefore, x = 7 and y = 8

jerry has a water tank that holds 5 gallons of water. jerry drinks 4 pints of water a day. how many full tanks of water will he drink in 30 days?
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
first of all, 8 pints=1 gallon
multiply 4 by the number of days which is 30 so you get 120. then divide by 8 (pints) to find the number of gallons. you come out with 15 gallons. each tank has 5 gallons, so 15 divided by 5 is 3.

(b) A train of length 120 m is travelling at 144km/h.
It passes under a bridge of width 20m.
Find the time taken for the whole train to pass under the bridge.
Give your answer in seconds.
Answer:
3 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
First calculate the time for each 20m length to pass through the bridge.
The train takes 3600 seconds to travel 144,000 m
So it takes 3600/144000 seconds to travel 1m.
and 3600 * 20 / 144000 seconds to travel 20 m.
As the train is 120 m long and there are 6 * 20 m in 120m the answer is:
3600 * 20 * 6 / 144000 seconds.
= 3 seconds.

Two small planes leave Sacramento and LA, which are 380 miles apart, and travel toward each other. If one plane travel 30 miles per hour faster than the other plane and they meet in one hour, what are their respective speeds?
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Let the speed of the first plane be x then the speed of the second plane would be x + 30
The combined speed is x + x + 30 = 2x + 30
2x + 30 = 380
Subtract 30 from both sides
2x = 350
Divide both sides by 2
X = 175
The speed of the first plane was 175 miles per hour the speed of the second plane was 205 hour

A sports marketing company is interested in how many hours teenagers in a town spend watching sports. They randomly select 40 teenagers from this town and ask how many hours per week they spend watching sports. The mean amount is 6.25 hours with a standard deviation of 4.33 hours. Which of the following correctly interprets the 90% confidence interval for the true mean number of hours teenagers from this town watch sports?
90% of all teenagers from this town watch sports for the number of hours that lie between the values in the interval.
In repeated sampling, 90% of the time, the true mean number of hours teens from this town watch sports will be 6.25 hours.
The sports marketing company can be 90% confident that the constructed interval captures the true mean number of hours teens from this town watch sports.
In repeated sampling, 90% of the time the true mean number of hours teens from this town watch sports will be captured in the constructed interval.
Answer:
c. The sports marketing company can be 90% confident that the constructed interval captures the true mean number of hours teens from this town watch sports.
Step-by-step explanation:
got it right on edge
The statement third "sports marketing company can be 90% confident that the constructed interval captures the true mean number of hours teens from this town watch sports" is the correct.
What is the standard deviation?It is defined as the measure of data disbursement, It gives an idea about how much is the data spread out.
First, we will find the 90% confidence interval:
We have:
X = 6.25 hours, SD =4.33 hours, n = 40
90% confidence interval:
= (X±t×s/√n)
For 90% confidence interval:
t = t(n-1), 1-α/2 = t(39), 0.95 = 1.685
After putting all the values in the above confidence interval, formula:
We get:
Confidence interval = (5.097, 7.404)
Thus, the statement third "sports marketing company can be 90% confident that the constructed interval captures the true mean number of hours teens from this town watch sports" is the correct.

Find the area of the circle with a diameter of 12 m.
a 95.64 m2
b 112.27 m2
C 113.04 m2
d 210.36 m2
Answer:
113.04 is our answer
Step-by-step explanation:
When finding Area the formula to do so is
radius x radius x pi
Sense we arent given radius we have to find out whats the radius but we must remember radius is just half of the diameter so since we are given diameter we will just do diameter divided by 2 so 12 ÷ 2 = 6 now that we have are radius we square it thats just a fancy way of saying multiply by itself so 6 x 6 = 36 now we multiply 36 with 3.14 So
3.14 x 36 = 113.04 So c is our answer!

Javier estimates the square root of 18 in the following way:
18−−√=29–√=2∗3=6
18=29=2∗3=6
Explain why her reasoning is incorrect.
Without using a calculator, the square root of 18 will be between what two values (remember to look for perfect squares/perfect square roots)? Show your reasoning. You do not need to find the decimal equivalent of the root.
Answer:
The square root will be about 4 because the formula for square root is √(x^2) = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
√18 = √(2x9) = 3√2. so they pulled the 2 out of the square root incorrectly.
4x4 = 16
5x5 = 25
so √18 is between 4 and 5. closer to 4

Solve for the values of x and y:
y = 3x - 5 ........(i) and y = -x + 7 ........(ii)
Answer:
x= 3, y= 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y= 3x -5 -----(i)
y= -x +7 -----(ii)
Substitute (i) into (ii):
3x -5= -x +7
3x +x= 7 +5
4x= 12
x= 12 ÷4 (÷4 on both sides)
x= 3
Substitute x= 3 into (ii):
y= -3 +7
y= 4

Dominic spent hours on his art project. Rachel worked times as long on her art project as Dominic worked. For how many hours did Rachel work on her art project?
Answer:
Rachel worked for [tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] hours
Step-by-step explanation:
See comment for complete question
Given
Let
[tex]D = Dominic[/tex]
[tex]R = Rachel[/tex]
So:
[tex]D = 2\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
and
[tex]R =1\frac{1}{3}[/tex] as long as D
Required
Determine the number of hours spent by Rachel
This implies that:
[tex]R =1\frac{1}{3}[/tex] as long as D
Rewrite as:
[tex]R =1\frac{1}{3} * D[/tex]
Substitute: [tex]D = 2\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
[tex]R =1\frac{1}{3} * 2\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Express as improper fraction
[tex]R =\frac{4}{3} * \frac{11}{4}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]R =\frac{1}{3} * 11[/tex]
[tex]R =\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
Express as mixed numbers
[tex]R =3\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Hence, Rachel worked for [tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] hours

Which statement is NOT supported by the information in the table?
Answer:75
Step-by-step explanation:
Theo, Nancy, and Mary each drove separately to meet at their grandmother's house for dinner. Theo drove 50 miles, Nancy drove √2,840 miles, and Mary's route is shown below. A right triangle with side lengths 48 miles and 13 miles. The hypotenuse is labeled Mary's Route. Approximately how many miles did Mary drive to her grandmother's house? Order the distances that each family member drove to their grandmother's house from least to greatest.
Answer:
The distance between Mary's house and her grandmother's house is approximately 49.73 miles.
The 3 traveled the following distances:
Theo rode 50 miles, Mary drove 49.73 miles, and Nancy drove 53.299 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mary's route is indeed the hypotenuse of a given triangle, that has a 13-mile adjacent hand and a 48-mile wrong side. They can solve for the length of the other side of the triangle using Pythagoras' theorem because we have two sides of the triangle.
Let us just say that triangle's ellipse is x square miles. Pythagoras's theory stated that
[tex]x = \sqrt{(13^2 + 48^2)} \\\\[/tex]
[tex]= \sqrt{169 + 2,304} \\\\ = \sqrt{2,473}\\\\ = 49.729\\[/tex]
Mary's route was 49.73 square miles, to sum it up.
Nancy drove [tex]\sqrt{2,840} \ miles = 53.2916 \ miles[/tex]
As a result, Mary rode the shortest distance of 49.73 miles, Theo drove 50 miles, and Nancy drove 53.299 miles.
Answer:
49.73
Mary, Theo, Nancy
Step-by-step explanation:
