Upper A 4​-ft-tall fence runs parallel to the wall of a house at a distance of 8 ft. Find the length of the shortest ladder that

extends from the ground to the house without touching the fence. Assume the vertical wall of the house is 20 ft high and the horizontal ground extends 25 ft from the fence.

Answer:

Length of ladder = approximately 39 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formation is a right angle to and we are looking for the hypotenuse.

But first

The height = was of the house = 20ft

Total length = the 25ft extension+ the 8ft distance betwee the fence and the house

Total length= 25 +8 = 33ft

Length of the ladder = hypotenuse

Let length of the ladder be x

X² = 33² +20²

X² = 1089 + 400

X² = 1489

X= √1489

X= 38.59 ft

Length of ladder = approximately 39 ft

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Probability Problems.

Based on the study that Shane conducted we can assume a couple of things. Firstly, we can see that a vast majority of shoppers are buying products they saw advertised, so we can assume that advertising a product directly affects and contributes to the sales of that particular product.

Secondly, we can tell from the study that the number 1 method for advertising products is the Internet. Since 70% of all the interviewed shoppers are buying a product they saw on the internet.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Rom4ik [11]

Question:

You are in a bike race. When you get to the first checkpoint, you are 2/5 of the distance to the second checkpoint. When you get to the second check point, you are 1/4 of the distance to the finish. If the entire race is 40 miles, what is the distance between the start and the first check point?

Answer: 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let distance between start to first checkpoint = x

First checkpoint to second checkpoint = 2/5 of x

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 of start to checkpoint 2)

Distance of start to checkpoint 2 = (1/4 of start to finish)

If start to checkpoint 2 = 1/4 of start to finish

Then,

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 * 1/4 of start to finish)

Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = 2/20 of start to finish = 1/10 of start to finish

Entire race = 40 miles = distance from start to finish

1/ 10 of 40

= ( 1/10) × 40

= 4 miles

23 +30 (15 feet each way) = 53

28 + 30 = 58

58 x 53 = 3074ft
