A fireman is on the middle step of a ladder. (There are the same number of steps above him as below him.) If he goes down 4 steps, then up 7 steps, and then down 13 steps, he will be on the first step above the ground. How many steps does the ladder have?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The ladder has 20 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

10 is the direct middle if you go down 4 that is 6, if you go back up 7 you get 13 and if you go back down 13 and you are on the first step 13-13 is 0, so the ladder has 20 steps.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a basic proof in order to prove that verticals of a polygon are congruent. This should be the right answer since it's the only thing that makes sense to me. I really hope this helps you and thanks for being patient! I've been doing geometry and we have to prove everything we claim in a proof just like this one.

5x+18=7x-6 what’s the answer?

Answers

Answer:

x = 12

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDASEquality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

5x + 18 = 7x - 6

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 5x on both sides:               18 = 2x - 6Add 6 to both sides:                         24 = 2xDivide both sides by 2:                     12 = xRewrite:                                              x = 12

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

Substitute:                    5(12) + 18 = 7(12) - 6Multiply:                        60 + 18 = 84 - 6Add/Subtract:               78 = 78

And we have our final answer!

An employee took 5 vacation days bringing his new vacation day balance to 8 days.Which equation can be used to find, x, the number of vacation days the employee had before using 5 vacation days?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x + 5 = 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Total = 8[/tex]

[tex]Additional\ Vacation = 5[/tex]

Required

Determine the equation to find initial days of vacation

This is represented with x.

To get a total of 8 days vacation, we must have the following expression.

[tex]Initial\ Days + Additional\ Days = Total[/tex]

Substitute values for initial days, additional days and total. So, we have

[tex]x + 5 = 8[/tex]

Hence, the required expression is: [tex]x + 5 = 8[/tex]

Answer:

31.01, 180.8, 0.2, 15501

Step-by-step explanation:

Puzzle 1:

The first rule takes out 301

The second rule has to have a 1 in the units place so that takes out 3.1, 3.101, and 30.1

The 3rd rule takes out 1.01, and 1.03

Rule 4, is self explanatory, so it takes out 31.3

and the last rule takes out 31.1 bc there is no hundredths column

That leaves you with 31.01

Puzzle 2:

Rule 1 takes out 18180

Rule 2, self explanatory, takes out 180

Rule 3 takes out numbers less than 18 so 1.81 and 0.18

Rule 4 takes out  18.01, 1800, 188, and 18.8

That leaves you with 180.8

Puzzle 3:

Rule 1 takes out 0.24, 0.5, and 2.02

Rule 2 takes out 0.15

Rule 3 takes out 0.02, 0.01 and 0.1 (bc it just says greater than and not equal to so it takes this one out)

Rule 4 takes out 0.12

That leaves you with 0.2

Puzzle 4:

Rule 1 takes out 45000

Rule 2 takes out 5401, 5444, and 4544

Rule 3 takes out 5454

Rule 4 does not take out any because all the remaining numbers ( 14500, 15501, 14534, and 10500) have 5 hundreds

Rule 5 takes out 14500, 14534, and 10500

That leaves you with 15501

If an object is shot upward with an initial velocity, v0, in feet per second (ft/s), the velocity, v, in ft/s is given by the formula v=v0−32t, where t is time in seconds. Find the initial velocity of an object if the velocity after 2 seconds is 39ft/s.

Answers

Answer:

96m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the velocity, v, in ft/s of an object given by the formula v=v0−32t,

Given

V = 39ft/s

t = 2secs

Required.

Initial velocity v0

Substitute the given parameters into the formula

v=v0−32t,

32 = v0-32(2)

v0 = 32+64

v0 = 96m/s

Hence the initial velocity of the object is 96m/s
