a ladder 7.5m long is leaning against a wall if the foot of the ladder is 3m from the wall how far up the wall does the ladder reach to reach the nearest metres

7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

7.5 is your hypotenuse and 3 is one of your legs.

7.5^2 - 3^2 = 47.25

the sqrt of 47.25 is 6.873863542, therefore the nearest meter it reaches is 7.

c.35

step-by-step explanation:

8+13=21

21+8=29

29+6=35
