If a ladder is 5.5 m long and it is placed 3 m from the wall, solve and show the work when you use the Pythagorean Theorem to find how far up the wall the ladder will reach.

4.609 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is the ladder because it is the slanted side. 3m is one of the other side lengths

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

3^2 + B^2 = 5.5^2

9 + B^2 = 30.25

30.25 - 9= B^2

21.25= B^2

4.609=B

(0.2)+(-8)=0.3+-3+0.3m is the equation i guess? ?

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
