Please Help! An eight foot ladder leans against a building. if the ladder makes an angle of 60 degrees with the ground, haw far from the building is the base of the ladder. Round you answer to the nearest tenth.
Answers
The base of the ladder is 4 ft away from the buliding
Here, we want to calculate the distance from the building to the base of the ladder
To properly answer this, an image of the question is needed
We have this as follows;
From the diagram, what we want to calculate is the distance d
To calculate this, we need the appropriate trigonometric identity
Firstly, we need to identify the parts of the triangle present
As we can see, we have the hypotenuse which is the side that faces the right angle and also is the longest side
The side we want to get is the adjacent
Mathematically, the trigonometric ratio that connects the adjacent to the hypotenuse is the cosine
Thus, we have it that;
[tex]\begin{gathered} \cos \text{ 60 = }\frac{d}{8} \\ \\ d\text{ = 8 cos 60} \\ d\text{ = }4.0\text{ ft} \end{gathered}[/tex]

When a figure is translated its orientation (blank) and the measurements of its angles (blank).The options for both blanks are the same and the options are, remain the same or change
Answers
First of all, remember that translation is a transformation which doesn't imply a change of size or shape, that is, the image will be congruent to its image.
Having said that, the complete paragraph would be
When a figure is translated its orientation remains the same and the measurements of its angles remain the same.
The orientation doesn't change because it's defined as the position of points of the figure, these points change its position where we rotate the figure, which is not the case here.

Given the area of triangle AEC=63cm^2, find the area of triangle ABC.
Answers
We are given that the area of triangle AEC = 63 centimeters squared.
Since segment CD equals segment DB that means that triangle CDA and triangle BDA have the same area, and also triangle CDE and triangle BDE have the same area. This means mathematically the following:
[tex]A_{\text{ADC}}-A_{\text{AEC}}=A_{\text{ADB}}-A_{\text{AEB}},\text{ (1)}[/tex]Also
[tex]A_{\text{ADC}}=A_{\text{ADB}},\text{ (2)}[/tex]Replacing equation (1) in equation (2)
[tex]A_{\text{ADC}}-A_{\text{AEC}}=A_{\text{ADC}}-A_{\text{AEB}}[/tex]Simplifying
[tex]A_{\text{AEC}}=A_{\text{AEB}}[/tex]Therefore:
[tex]A_{\text{AEB}}=63\operatorname{cm}^2[/tex]Since segments DE and EA is the same, then:
[tex]A_{\text{CDE}}=A_{\text{AEC}}[/tex]Therefore:
[tex]A_{\text{CDE}}=63\operatorname{cm}^2[/tex]Since
[tex]A_{\text{CDE}}=A_{\text{BDE}}[/tex]We have:
[tex]A_{\text{BDE}}=63\operatorname{cm}^2[/tex]therefore, the area of the triangle is:

A bag is made with 1,350 green, blue, and white beads. Twice as many green beads as blue beads are used the number of white beads is half of the total number of green and blue beads. how many green beads are used?
Answers
Write equations for each succeeding sentences. Use G for green, B for blue, and W for white beads.
[tex]\begin{gathered} G+B+W=1350 \\ G=2B \\ W=\frac{1}{2}(G+B) \\ G=\text{?} \end{gathered}[/tex]Solve for the value of G as follows.
Rewrite the equations in terms of B. Since the value of G is already written in terms of B, write the value of W in terms of B.
[tex]\begin{gathered} W=\frac{1}{2}(G+B)_{}_{} \\ =\frac{1}{2}(2B+B) \\ =\frac{1}{2}(3B) \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute the values of G and W, in terms of B, into the first equation and then solve for B.
[tex]\begin{gathered} G+B+W=1350 \\ 2B+B+\frac{1}{2}(3B)=1350 \\ 4B+2B+3B=2700 \\ 9B=2700 \\ B=300 \end{gathered}[/tex]Note that we obtained the third equation by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2. This eliminates the denominator, 2, from the left side of the equation.
Substitute the obtained value of B in the second given equation to solve for G.
[tex]\begin{gathered} G=2B \\ =2(300) \\ =600 \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute the obtained value of B into the obtained value of W and then simplify.
[tex]\begin{gathered} W=\frac{1}{2}(3B) \\ =\frac{1}{2}\lbrack3(300)\rbrack \\ =\frac{1}{2}(900) \\ =450 \end{gathered}[/tex]To check if the answer is correct, add all the number of beads per color and determine if the sum is the same as the given value.
[tex]\begin{gathered} G+B+W=1350 \\ 600+300+450=1350 \\ 1350=1350 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since the equation is true, the answers are correct.

The total volume of a tree increases
8% each year. What will its volume be

meters now?
A) 5(1.08)^7
B) 5(7)(0.08)
C) 5(0.08)^7
D) 5(7)(1.08)
Answers
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
it all starts with 5 m³.
after one year this will be
5 × 1.08
as the original 5 m³ have increased by 8% (= multiplication by 1.08, as 8% = 0.08, and adding 8% means 100% + 8% = 1 + 0.08 = 1.08).
after the second year we will see another increase by 8% compared to the previous year.
so,
(5 × 1.08) × 1.08 = 5(1.08)²
...
and so, after the nth year, the volume is
5(1.08)^n
therefore, after 7 years means n = 7, and we get
5(1.08)⁷

Consider the line . y=3/2x+3Find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point .(-8,3)Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to this line and passes through the point . (-8,3)
Answers
Answer:
Equation of parallel line: y = 3x/2 + 15
Equation of perpendicular line: y = - 2x/3 - 7/3
Explanation:
The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as
y = mx + c
where
m represents slope
c represents y intercept
The equation of the given line is
y = 3x/2 + 3
By comparing with the slope intercept equation,
slope, m = 3/2
Recall, if two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Thus, the slope of the parallel line passing through the point, (- 8, 3) is 3/2. We would find the y intercept, c by substituting m = 3/2, x = - 8 and y = 3 into the slope intercept equation. We have
3 = 3/2 * - 8 + c
3 = - 12 + c
c = 3 + 12 = 15
By substituting m = 3/2 and c = 15 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the parallel line passing through the point, (- 8, 3) is
y = 3x/2 + 15
Recall, if two lines are perpendicular, it means that the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line. Thus, the slope of the perpendicular line passing through the point, (- 8, 3) is - 2/3. We would find the y intercept, c by substituting m = - 2/3, x = - 8 and y = 3 into the slope intercept equation. We have
3 = - 2/3 * - 8 + c
3 = 16/3 + c
c = 3 - 16/3 = - 7/3
By substituting m = - 2/3 and c = - 7/3 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the perpendicular line passing through the point, (- 8, 3) is
y = - 2x/3 - 7/3
