The bottom of a ladder must be placed 5 feet from a wall. The ladder is 18 feet long. How far above the ground does the ladder touch the wall?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The ladder meets the wall at 17.29 feet from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem ⇒ a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + b^2 = 18^2

25 + b^2 = 324

b^2 = 299

b = 17.291616

Point p is shown on the number line below
The distance between point q and point p is 6 1/2 units. Which number could represent point Q? ( Show work to get brainliest )

Answers

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between P and Q is 6.5.

P = -4

-4 + 6.5 = 2.5

Therefore Q = 2.5

The number to represent point Q is,

⇒ 2.5

What is Number line?

Number line is a horizontal line where numbers are marked at equal intervals one after another form smaller to greater.

Given that;

Point p is shown on the number line.

⇒ P = - 4

The distance between point q and point p = 6 1/2 units

Now,

Let the position of the point Q = x

Here, The distance between point q and point p = 6 1/2 units

Hence, We get;

⇒ x - (- 4) = 6 1/2

⇒ x + 4 = 13/2

⇒ x + 4 = 6.5

⇒ x = 6.5 - 4

⇒ x = 2.5

Thus, The number to represent point Q = 2.5

(219,379.01 - x) / x = .3321

Answers

Answer:x = 164686.592598

Step-by-step explanation:

219379.01−x/x = 0.3321

−x+219379.01/x = 0.3321

Step 1: Multiply both sides by x.

−x+219379.01≈0.3321x

−x+219379.01 − 0.3321x = 0.3321x−0.3321x (Subtract 0.3321x from both sides)

−1.3321x + 219379.01 = 0

−1.3321x + 219379.01 − 219379.01 = 0 − 219379.01 (Subtract 219379.01 from both sides)

−1.3321x = −219379.01

−1.3321x/−1.3321 = −219379.01/−1.3321

(Divide both sides by -1.3321)

x = 164686.592598

Answer:

  164,686.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Carry out the division, then solve for x.

  (219,379.01 - x) / x = .3321 . . . . . given

  219,379.01/x -1 = 0.3321

  219,379.01/x = 1.3321 . . . . add 1

  219,379.01/1.3321 = x ≈ 164,686.59 . . . . multiply by x/1.3321

Rounded to 8 significant digits, the value of x is 164,686.59.

Answers

Answer:

The two roots are -12/5 and 18/5

Step-by-step explanation:

One way of simplifying the work involved here is to isolate y:  start this by dividing all 3 terms by 5, obtaining:

|y - 3/5| = 3

Then 3/5 is the 'center' and 3 is the distance from this center to each of the two roots.

First root is 3/5 + 3, or 3 3/5, or 18/5.

Second root is 3/5 - 3, or -2 2/5, or -12/5

Answers

Answer:

X=4 or X=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -8 = -8  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -8  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -2 .

     -8    +    1    =    -7  

     -4    +    2    =    -2    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -4  and  2  

                    x2 - 4x + 2x - 8

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   x • (x-4)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   2 • (x-4)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (x+2)  •  (x-4)

            Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step

1

:

 (x + 2) • (x - 4)  = 0  

STEP

2

Theory - Roots of a product

2.1    A product of several terms equals zero.  

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.  

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately  

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product  

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.2      Solve  :    x+2 = 0  

Subtract  2  from both sides of the equation :  

                     x = -2

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.3      Solve  :    x-4 = 0  

Add  4  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x = 4

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving    x2-2x-8  = 0   directly  

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1      Find the Vertex of   y = x2-2x-8

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex .   Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) .   We know this even before plotting  "y"  because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).  

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two  x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.  

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.  

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the  x -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  x  coordinate is   1.0000  

Plugging into the parabola formula   1.0000  for  x  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :  

 y = 1.0 * 1.00 * 1.00 - 2.0 * 1.00 - 8.0

or   y = -9.000

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for :  y = x2-2x-8

Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {x}={ 1.00}  

Vertex at  {x,y} = { 1.00,-9.00}  

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at  {x,y} = {-2.00, 0.00}  

Root 2 at  {x,y} = { 4.00, 0.00}  

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

3.2     Solving   x2-2x-8 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Add  8  to both side of the equation :

  x2-2x = 8

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of  x , which is  2 , divide by two, giving  1 , and finally square it giving  1  

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :

 On the right hand side we have :

  8  +  1    or,  (8/1)+(1/1)  

 The common denominator of the two fractions is  1   Adding  (8/1)+(1/1)  gives  9/1  

 So adding to both sides we finally get :

  x2-2x+1 = 9

Adding  1  has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

  x2-2x+1  =

  (x-1) • (x-1)  =

 (x-1)2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

  x2-2x+1 = 9 and

  x2-2x+1 = (x-1)2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

  (x-1)2 = 9

We'll refer to this Equation as  Eq. #3.2.1  

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

  (x-1)2   is

  (x-1)2/2 =

 (x-1)1 =

  x-1

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to  Eq. #3.2.1  we get:

  x-1 = √ 9

Add  1  to both sides to obtain:

  x = 1 + √ 9

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

  x2 - 2x - 8 = 0

  has two solutions:

 x = 1 + √ 9

  or

 x = 1 - √ 9

Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula

3.3     Solving    x2-2x-8 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula,  x  , the solution for   Ax2+Bx+C  = 0  , where  A, B  and  C  are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

                                     

           - B  ±  √ B2-4AC

 x =   ————————

                     2A

 In our case,  A   =     1

                     B   =    -2

                     C   =   -8

Accordingly,  B2  -  4AC   =

                    4 - (-32) =

                    36

Applying the quadratic formula :

              2 ± √ 36

  x  =    —————

                   2

Can  √ 36 be simplified ?

Yes!   The prime factorization of  36   is

  2•2•3•3  

√ 36   =  √ 2•2•3•3   =2•3•√ 1   =

               ±  6 • √ 1   =

               ±  6

So now we are looking at:

          x  =  ( 2 ± 6) / 2

Two real solutions:

x =(2+√36)/2=1+3= 4.000

or:

x =(2-√36)/2=1-3= -2.000
