Answer 2

The base of the 15-foot ladder should be set back from the wall by x feet in order for it to precisely reach the top of a 12-foot wall.

What is nearest tenth?

The decimal number can also be rounded to the nearest tenths place value. The first number that appears after the decimal point is the tenth place value. Look at the hundredth number to round the decimal number to the nearest tenth. If it's more than 5, add one to the tenth value.

The tenths digit stays the same if it is 4 or less. The hundredths place digit, 8, is greater than or equal to 5, so 3.58 can be rounded to 3.6. Due to the fact that the digit in the hundredths place, 2, is less than 5, 3.32 would be rounded to 3.3.

Answer:

  Ted-1, Bill-10, Ian-8, Van-9, Cody-3, Sal-5, Violet-2, Sam-6, Will-4, Todd-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to this seems to be "there are seven people standing between Van and Ted." This means either Van or Ted is at one end of the line. There will be one person standing at the end beside whichever one of these is not at the end of the line.

Then "Van is standing between Bill and Ian, who is standing next to Todd" tells you it is not Van who is at the end, but it is Bill. This tells you the four tallest people in decreasing order are Bill, Van, Ian, and Todd. We know Bill is not the shortest, because Bill is taller than Todd. That means Ted is the shortest.

The next shorter people than Todd are Sam and Sal (Sam is between Sal and Todd).

At this point we know the order of 7 people: the 6 tallest, and the shortest. The remaining 3 are Violet, Cody, and Will. Since "Cody is taller than Violet, but shorter than Will," we know the final order, shortest to tallest, is ...

  Ted, Violet, Cody, Will, Sal, Sam, Todd, Ian, Van, Bill

A helicopter floats 120m above a helipad, a dog is 85m from the helipad, if the dog could fly, how far would it have to fly to get to helicopter?

Answers

If the dog could fly, it would need to fly 147 meters to catch the helicopter

This is a rather easy and straightforward question. We are going to solve it using Pythagoras theorem. We can interpret the question to be in a triangle where the height of the helicopter above the helipad and away from the dog is the right angle. This also means that the distance needed, between the dog and the helicopter is the hypotenuse.

Using pythagoras theorem, we have

120² + 85² = c²

c² = 14400 + 7225

c² = 21625

c = [tex]\sqrt{21625}[/tex]

c = ±147 meters.

Since distance cant be in the negative, our answer is 147 m

Answers

Answer: M  = [tex]\frac{x-2y}{x+y}[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{M(x+y)+4y}{x^{2}-xy-y^{2} } =\frac{(x+2y)}{x^{2} -xy-y^{2} }[/tex]

M (x + y) + 4y = x + 2y (Multiply [tex]x^{2} - xy-y^{2}[/tex] in both sides)

M (x + y)  = x + 2y - 4y

M (x + y)  = x - 2y  (Divide (x+y) from both sides)

You are currently paying rent every year for your restaurant. You still have a contract that will last 2 more years. Starting today, your rent will increase every year by 3.5%.
Think of the amount of rent you are paying right now. Then, determine how much rent you will be paying after 2 years.
Imagine that after two years you will have the opportunity to change rent contracts.
Show a situation in which it would be beneficial and one situation in which it would not be beneficial to change contracts.

Answers

The amount to be paid in rent after 2 years if the rent as of now is $3,000 will be; $3,213.675

The question allows that we choose the amount being paid as rent as of now.

Let the rent paid as of now be; $3,000

In essence; after the first year; the amount increases by 3.5% to become;

1.035 × $3,000

= $3,105.

After the second year; we have;

1.035 × $3,105

= $3,213.675

Ultimately; the amount to be paid after 2 years will be; $3,213.675.

When given the opportunity to change rent contracts;

A situation that will be beneficial would be a 3.5% reduction in rent per year A situation that will not be beneficial would be a 7% increase in rent per year.

Haley has 48 colored pencils and 3 cups (A, B, C). Cup A holds one more colored pencil than cup C. Cup B holds 2 more colored pencils than cup C. How many pencils does cup B contain?

Answers

Answer:

17 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that cup C holds x pencils. In this case, cup A holds x + 1 pencils, and cup B holds x + 2 pencils. We know that all of the cups together hold 48 pencils. If we add what we got together, we would get x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 48. 2x + 1 + x + 2 = 48. 2x + x + 1 + 2 = 48. 3x + 1 + 2 = 48. 3x + 3 = 48. 3x = 48 - 3. 3x = 45. x = 45 / 3. x = 15. Now, we know that cup C holds 15 pencils, and from here, we can find the number of pencils in cup B by adding 2 to 15 and getting 17, and that would be your answer.
