I DESPERATELY NEED YOUR HELP!! A cat gets stuck on the roof. If the latter is 12 feet long and must be placed 7 feet away from the building. How high can the ladder reach up the building to save the cat

your answer is 9.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

you apply Pythagorean theorem since you are looking for height you can subsitute x for a or b and since 12 is the largest number this will be your c which is your hypotneuse and 7 will be subsituted as a or b depending on what letter you used as your x value is equal too 49 +b^2 =144 you then subtract 49 on both sides to isolate your x (b) and this gets you 95 and then you find the square root of 95 which is 9.7

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
