A factory manufactures plastic bottles of 4 different sizes, 3 different colors, and 2 different shapes. How many different combinations are possible?

Answers

Multiply 4 sizes times 3 colors times 2 shapes because there would be actually 6 combinations of colors and shapes per size resulting in 24 combinations possible.

4*3*2=24
24, because to find the number of combinations, you multiply all of the different choices so you do 3x2x4 and that equals 24. Hope this helps! :)

A 15 foot ladder is leaning against a wall. The foot of the ladder is 7 feet from the wall. How high up the wall is the ladder? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

13.26

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the height should be computed by using the Pythagoras theorem

As we know that

Hypothenuse^2 = base^2 + height^2

where,

Hypothenuse is 15 foot

And, the foot of the ladder i.e base is 7

So now placing these values

The height is

15^2 = 7^2 + height^2

225= 49 + height^2

After solving this, the height is 13.26
