Each step of the stairs leading from room 9 to room 107 in the Academy Building has a vertical rise of 7 inches and a horizontal run of 12 inches. Each step of the marble staircase leading to the Assembly Hall has a vertical rise of 5.5 inches and a horizontal run of 13 inches. (a) Which flight of stairs do you think is steeper? Why?
(b) Calculate the ratio rise/run for each flight of stairs, and verify that the greater ratio belongs to the flight you thought to be steeper.

answer: the distance

step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the distance d of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula d (x2 x1)2 (y2 y1)2. to calculate the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct.   we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306.   this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395.   answer c is correct.

p(x)= 8 x³ - 36 x² + 54 x - 27

q(x) = 2 x -3

you can check your mistake and then you can choose the correct option.

dividend =   8 x³ - 36 x² + 54 x - 27

divisor = 2 x -3

if you want to find quotient, proceed as follows

q(x)= 0

2 x - 3=0

x =

now , i have used division method , to find quotient and remainder
