Mr. grimm is trying to build a playground set in his backyard. part of the playground set will have a slide. the ladder is 5 feet tall, and the slide is 7 feet long. what is the distance between the ladder and the bottom of the slide? round your answer to the nearest tenth.

4.9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem tells us that the sum of the square of each leg in a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. It can be written as:

Where

The picture of the problem is attached.

Now, using pythagorean theorem, we can write (letting the distance from base of ladder to base of slide be ):

Now solving for :

Hence, the distance between the ladder and the bottom of the slide is 4.9 ft (rounded to the nearest tenth)

yes because they have the same amount of green and blur marbles.

step-by-step explanation:

b. 1.25 hr

step-by-step explanation:

if you have a constant speed of 60 mph, then you have a ratio between 60 mi. to 1 hr. dividing both sides by 60 we get the ratio

1 mi. to

then mult. both sides by 75 we get the ratio

75 mi. to

simplifying we get

75 mi. to

or 1.25 hr.
