Peyton is walking her dog, Willow, on a local trail and the dog falls 153 feet down a ravine! Payton is overcome with emotion an
d needs your help to save her dog. You can repel down and successfully rescue Willow, but you must calculate how much rope is needed.
The ravine is 153 feet deep the repel line will be the diagonal distance from the top of the ravine to Willow The anchor and repel line form a 35 degree angle; this is angle A in the image below.
(a) Calculate the length of the repel line using one of the 3 trigonometry ratios taught (sin, cos, tan) Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Show all needed math for calculating this length.

4 liters of punch can serve 16.
5 liters of punch will be needed for 20 servings.
7 liters of punch will serve 28.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Ratios of liters of punch to servings = 2:8
Let,
x be the servings for 4 liters.
New ratio of liters of punch to servings = 4:x
Using proportion;
Ratio :: New ratio
Product of mean = Product of extreme
Dividing both sides by 2
4 liters of punch can serve 16.
Let,
y be the liters of punch for 20 servings.
New ratio = y:20
Using proportion;
Product of mean = Product of extreme
Dividing both sides by 8
y=5
5 liters of punch will be needed for 20 servings.
Let,
z be the number of servings for 7 liters of punch.
New ratio = 7:z
Using proportion
Product of mean = Product of extreme
Dividing both sides by 2
7 liters of punch will serve 28.
