Answer: 19.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem formula to solve for how high the top of the ladder reach.
The formula says a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where a and b are the two legs and C is the hypotenuse.
In this situation, the hypotenuse will be length of the ladder , and either a or b will be the length of the ladder from the building or the length of how long the ladder.
a will be 3 , and c will be 20. Input in the values into the formula and solve for b.
3^2 + b^2 = 20^2
9 + b^2 = 400
-9 -9
b^2 = 391
b =
b = 19.77371 round to the nearest tenth is , 19.8
Answer:
Answer options
A. Two cities that are 7.5 cm apart on the map are actually 50 km apart.
D. Two cities that are actually 66 km apart are 9.9 cm apart on the map.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Indicate the scale as shown;
3 cm : 20 km, meaning 3 cm on the map represents 20 km on the ground
A). what does 7.5 cm represent on the ground
Distance on ground=(7.5×20)/3=50 km
B). what does 4 cm represent on the ground
Distance on ground=(4×20)/3=26.67 km
C). what does 45 km on ground represent on the map
Distance on map=(45×3)/20=6.75 cm
D). what does 66 km on ground represent on the map
Distance on the map=(66×3)/20=9.9 cm

Answer:
7 (units)
Step-by-step explanation:
If E is placed at the number 6- then it would take 6 to get to 0. If B is placed at -1, then it would be one more backward to get to B- so it would take 7 to get from E to B.
