A 2.5m long ladder leans against the wall of a building. The base of the ladder is 1.5m away from the wall. What is the height of
the wall​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The model of the situation is a right triangle with legs 1.5 and h the height of the wall. The hypotenuse is the ladder.

Using Pythagoras' identity

h² + 1.5² = 2,5²

h² + 2.25 = 6.25 ( subtract 2.25 from both sides )

h² = 4 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = [tex]\sqrt{4}[/tex] = 2

The height of the wall is 2 m

Answer 2

The height of the wall od the building is, 2 m.

What is Pythagoras's theorem?

In a right-angled triangle, the sum of the squares of the smaller two sides of a right-angle triangle is equal to the square of the largest side.

Given, A 2.5m long ladder leans against the wall of a building. The base of the ladder is 1.5m away from the wall.

So, Hypotenuse is 2.5 m and Adjacent is 1.5 m.

We know, H² = O² + A².

O² = H² - A².

O² = 6.25 - 2.25.

O² = 4.

O = 2.

Another concept regarding triangles is,

Suppose we have a triangle ABC, with sides a, b and c.

An acute angle triangle is one where a² + b² > c².

It is a right-angle triangle if a² + b² = c2.

It is an obtuse angle triangle if a² + b² < c².

Answer:

a. 70 gallons of water were leaked each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable x = gallons leaked each month

210/3 = x/1

Cross multiply:

210 × 1 = 3 × x

210 = 3x

Divide by 3 to isolate the variable:

70 = x

The division part is only 210 ÷ 3 = x. I wrote it down this way so you can see how I came to this equation.

Check your work:

210/3 = 70/1

210 × 1 = 3 × 70

Long-term capital gains are from investments that have been held for at least six months and are taxed at a higher rate than short-term capital gains.

Answers

Answer: A. Long-term capital gains are from investments that have been held for more than one year and are taxed at a lower rate than short-term capital gains.

Step-by-step explanation:

Long-term capital gains are indeed from investments that have been held for more than a year as opposed to short term gains from investments of less than a year. This means that long term gains can come from investments such as stocks and bonds.

Long-term capital gains are taxed at a lower rate than short term gains with most long term gains being taxed at 15% or lower. This is in contrast to short-term gains that are taxed at the same rate as ordinary income which means it could go up to as high as 37%.

What is PEDMAS rule?

PEDMAS rule states that the order of operation starts with the parentheses first or the calculation which is enclosed in brackets. Then the operation is performed on exponents(degree or square roots) and later we do operations on division & multiplication and at last addition and subtraction.

According to the question

Monique goes out for coffee once per week.

She has already spent $40.86 this year on her coffees and each one is $4.54.

There are 27 weeks left in this school year for Monique.

If she continues getting coffee at this rate, money will she have spent on coffee by the end of the year:

Based on the given conditions

[tex]40.86 + 27 \times 4.54[/tex]

By using PEDMAS rule, first we have to multiply 27 and 4.54

= [tex]40.86 + 122.58[/tex]

By using PEDMAS rule, first we have to add 40.86 and 122.58

= [tex]163.44[/tex]

Thus, $163.44 money will she have spent on coffee by the end of the year.

Colin is painting figurines. He spends 20 minutes painting each figurine. After painting for 60 minutes, he still has 9 more figurines left to paint. The number fff of figurines left to paint is a function of ttt, the amount of time in minutes Colin spends painting.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(t) =-\frac{1}{20} t + 12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]t \to time[/tex]

[tex]f \to figurines[/tex]

Required

Determine the function

From the question, we have:

[tex]60\ minutes \to 9\ left[/tex]

This is represented as:

[tex]f(60) = 9[/tex] or [tex](60,9)[/tex]

If he spends 20 minutes on 1 figurine;

[tex]20\ minutes = 1\ figurine[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3

[tex]60\ minutes = 3\ figurines[/tex]

This means that, he spends 60 minutes on 3

plus he still has 9 left

So, the initial figurines is:

[tex]f(0) =3 + 9[/tex]

[tex]f(0) =12[/tex] or [tex](0,12)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](60,9)[/tex] and [tex](0,12)[/tex]

Calculate the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{12- 9}{0 -60}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{3}{ -60}[/tex]

[tex]m = -\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

The equation is then calculated as;

[tex]f(t) = m * t + c[/tex]

[tex]f(t) = -\frac{1}{20} * t + c[/tex]

[tex]f(t) = -\frac{1}{20}t + c[/tex]

To solve for c, we have:

[tex]f(60) = 9[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]9 = -\frac{1}{20} * 60 + c[/tex]

[tex]9 = -3 + c[/tex]

Add 3 toboth sides

[tex]c =12[/tex]

Hence, the equation is:

[tex]f(t) =-\frac{1}{20} t + c[/tex]

[tex]f(t) =-\frac{1}{20} t + 12[/tex]

f=-1/20t+12

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 169x2 when x > 0?

Answers

Answer:

y = (√x)/13 for x > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, this is f(x) = 169x^2; the " ^ " indicates exponentiation.  The graph consists of the right-hand half of the parabola 169x^2.  Before we attempt to find the inverse function, we determine whether or not this function passes the vertical line test.  If x is restricted to (0, infinity), a horizontal line intersects this graph only once.  Therefore, this function has an inverse.

1.  Replace 'f(x)' with 'y:'  y = 169x^2

2.  Interchange x and y:  x = 169y^2

3.  Solve for y:  y^2 = x/169, or y = (√x)/13 for x > 0
