Answer 2

Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Length²

The height of the building is 32.8 feet

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

We have,

If you place a 26-foot ladder against the top of a building and the bottom of the ladder is 20 feet from the bottom of the building.

This can be written as,

Hypotenuse = 26 feet

Base = 20 feet

Height = height of the building

Now,

Applying the Pythagorean theorem.

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Length²

26² = 20² + Height²

Height² = 676 + 400

Height² = 1076

Height = √1076

Height = 32.8 feet

Thus,

The height of the building is 32.8 feet

A rectangle and a triangle have the same area.
The dimensions of the rectangle are 3 cm and 10 cm. The base of the triangle is 6 cm.
What is the height of the triangle? How do you know?

Answers

Answer:

Height of the triangle = 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dimensions of rectangle = 3 cm , 10 cm

Base of triangle = 6 cm

Find:

Height of the triangle

Computation:

Given that area of rectangle is equal to area of triangle

So,

(l x b) = (1/2)(b)(h)

(3 x 10) = (1/2)(6)(h)

30 = 3(h)

h = 10

Height of the triangle = 10 cm

Square:

A square is a quadrilateral that has equal sides and all angles equal to 90 degrees.

Rectangle:

A rectangles is a quadrilateral that has equal or unequal  sides and all angles equal to 90 degrees. All rectangles are not squares.

Rhombus:

A rhombus is a quadrilateral that has equal sides and all angles may or may not be  equal to 90 degrees. All squares are rhombus. But all rhombus are not squares.

As both Ryan and Addy have missed out one property of square therefore both of them are incorrect.

if 60 min = 1 hr

2. The inequality is

[tex]\dfrac{x}{6}>-23[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=4[/tex], we get

[tex]\dfrac{4}{6}>-23[/tex]

[tex]0.67\leq -23[/tex]

This statement is true. So, the inequality [tex]\dfrac{x}{6}>-23[/tex] has 4 as a solution.

3. The inequality is

[tex]x-43<37[/tex]

[tex]4-43<37[/tex]

[tex]-39<37[/tex]

This statement is true. So, the inequality [tex]x-43<37[/tex] has 4 as a solution.

4. The inequality is

[tex]8x\leq 128[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=4[/tex], we get

[tex]8(4)\leq 128[/tex]

[tex]32\leq 128[/tex]

This statement is true. So, the inequality [tex]8x\leq 128[/tex] has 4 as a solution.

5. The inequality is

[tex]x+4.7>21.6[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=4[/tex], we get

[tex]4+4.7>21.6[/tex]

[tex]8.7>21.6[/tex]

This statement is false. So,4 is not a solution of the inequality [tex]x+4.7>21.6[/tex].

2mm:6cm  divided by 2 equals 1mm: 3cm

The required simplest form of 8mm; 24cm is 1mm; 3cm.

We have to determine, the simplest form of 8 mm: 24 cm.

To obtain the simplest form of the equation calculation must be done in a single unit following all the steps given below.

The ratio is just a way to compare two quantities while the proportion is an equation that shows that two ratios are equivalent.

Here, 8 mm: 24 cm.

Therefore,

[tex]8mm \ ; 24cm[/tex]

Divided by 8 both sides,

They have an age difference of 6 (Kelly is older).
Write a system of equations to find out how old Kelly is
and how old Brandon is.

Answers

Answer:

Kelly is 19; Brandon is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

k + b = 32.  Also:  k = b + 6.

Substituting b + 6 for k in the first equation, we get b + 6 + b = 32, or

2b = 26.  Then b must be 13, and k must be 13 + 6, or 19.

Kelly is 19; Brandon is 13.

Answer:

Brandon is 13, Kelly is 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up our equations.

Kelly and Brandon have a combined age of 32.

K + B = 32

They have an age difference of 6. Kelly is older.

K - B = 6

Let's shift the equation around a little.

K - B = 6

Add B to both sides.

K = B + 6

Now let's plug K into our first equation.

K + B = 32

(B + 6) + B = 32

Combine like terms.

2B + 6 = 32

2B = 26

Divide both sides by 2.

B = 13

Now that we know Brandon is 13, we can find Kelly's age.

K + B = 32

K + 13 = 32

K = 19

Kelly is 19.

Answers

Answer:

x > -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Treat the < sign like an equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, subtract 15 from both sides:

-8x + 15 (-15) < 71 (-15)

-8x < 71 - 15

-8x < 56

Next, divide -8 from both sides of the equation. Note that when you divide by a negative number, you must flip the sign:

(-8x)/-8 < (56)/-8

x < (56)/-8

x > -7

x > -7 is your answer.

~

Answer:

Any number greater than but excluding -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x + 15 < 71

-8x < 71 - 15

-8x < 56

56 divided by -8 = -7

So, that means anything greater than -7 would result in a lower number than 71.
