The bottom of a 12-foot ladder is placed on the ground 7 feet from the base of a pipe sticking out of the ground. The top of the

ladder is placed an unknown distance off the ground, leaning on the pipe. The ladder and the ground meet at a 56.4° angle. At what angle does the pipe meet the ground?

<span>Let x = length of pipe.
Use Law of Cosines to find x: x^2 = 7^2 + 12^2 -2(7)(12)cos(56.4) = 98.03; x=9.901.
Let y = angle between pipe and ground.
Use Law of Sines to calculate y.
sin y/12 = sin(56.4)/9.901 ; sin y = 1 (approx). y = 90 deg.
 Answer: 90 deg.</span>

Karl drove 617.3 miles. For each gallon of gas the car can travel 41 miles.Select a reasonable estimate of the number of gallons
zaharov [31]
Time for fractions!!!

I’m going to set a rate of miles per gallon and then cross multiply to get me answer.

41miles/gallon = 617.3/xgallons

617.3 multiplied by 1 and then divided by 41 = about 15.05 gallons

A reasonable estimate then is 15 and a half gallons, because rather than measuring down to the hundredths, the next closest and reasonable measurement is 15 and a half or under.

Comment if you don’t understand and I’ll try to help.

. A 25-ft ladder is leaning against a wall. If we push the ladder toward the wall at a rate of 1 ft/sec, and the bottom of the l
Vlada [557]

Answer:

0.75 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that a 25-ft ladder is leaning against a wall. We can see from the attachment that ladder forms a right triangle with respect to wall and ground.

So we can set a Pythagoras theorem as:

x^2+y^2=25^2

x^2+y^2=625

Now, we need to find the derivative of above equation with respect to time.

2x\cdot \frac{dx}{dt}+2y\cdot \frac{dy}{dt}=0

Since the adder is moving toward the wall at a rate of 1 ft/sec for 5 sec, so x after 5 seconds would be: 20-1(5)=20-5=15

Let us solve for y using Pythagoras theorem.

y^2+15^2=25^2

y^2+225=625

y^2=625-225

y^2=400

Take positive square root:

\sqrt{y^2}=\sqrt{400}

y=20

Upon substituting our given values in derivative equation, we will get:

2x\cdot \frac{dx}{dt}+2y\cdot \frac{dy}{dt}=0

2(15)\cdot(-1)+2(20)\cdot \frac{dy}{dt}=0

-30+40\cdot \frac{dy}{dt}=0

40\cdot \frac{dy}{dt}=30

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{30}{40}

\frac{dy}{dt}=0.75

Therefore, the ladder is moving up at a rate of 0.75 feet per second.

Heron wants to buy a video game. The price is regularly priced at 55 dollars. The store has a discount of 20% off and a sales ta
nadezda [96]

The amount paid by Heron for the video game  is $46.64.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the marked price of the video game  = $55

The discount percentage on the video game  = 20%

Calculating 20% of the $55, we get:

\frac{20}{100}  \times 55  = 11

So, the discount offered on the video game  = $11

Selling Price  = Marked Price  - Discount

                        =$55 - $11 = $44

Now,  the tax percentage on the video game  = 6%

Calculating 6% of the $44, we get:

\frac{6}{100}  \times 44  =2.64

So, the tax  on the video game  = $2.64

New Selling Price  = Selling Price  +  Tax

                        =$44 + $2.64  = $46.64

So, the amount paid by Heron for the video game  is $46.64.
