A ladder reaches 6 m up a wall with its foot 2·4 m from the wall. A person standing under the ladder at a point 80 cm from its foot would be able to touch the ladder at a height of m from the ground.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that the ladder reaches a height of 6m from the ground while being 2.4 m from the wall. The ratio of the height to the length from the wall is 6:2.4 which can actually just simplify to 2.5 because 6m to is 2.4*2.5.

This person is 80 cm from the ladder's base. We just saw that you can take the distance from the wall (in this case, our wall is the human as the human is touching the height) and multiply it by 2.5 to find the height of the ladder at that specific point. So let's do that.

80*2.5= 200

We are looking for meters though. Since there are 100 centimeters in a meter, this is just going to be 2 meters.

Have a wonderful day! :D

abde or 1,2,4, 5 is the answer

step-by-step explanation:

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

subtract 15 from all parts

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

this means how many more cookies he has to make

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies, but no more than 40 cookies; 5 ≤ x ≤ 40
