A woman has a ladder that is 10 feet long. If she sets the base of the ladder on level ground 8 feet from the side of a house, how many feet above the ground will the top of the ladder be when it rests against the house? 1. 2
2. 5
3. 8
4. 6

2 feet extra

Step-by-step explanation:

so if you do common subtraction 8-10is 2 so here is 2 feet over her house

(x3 + 6x2 + 2x - 6) • (x - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

polynomial long division :

3.2     polynomial long division

dividing :   x4+5x3-4x2-8x+6

                              ("dividend")

by         :     x-1     ("divisor")

dividend     x4   +   5x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * x3     x4   -   x3            

remainder         6x3   -   4x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 6x2         6x3   -   6x2        

remainder             2x2   -   8x   +   6

- divisor   * 2x1             2x2   -   2x    

remainder               -   6x   +   6

- divisor   * -6x0               -   6x   +   6

remainder                     0

quotient :   x3+6x2+2x-6   remainder:   0
