Answer:

  • n < 18
  • n ≥ 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The wording "fewer than" is translated to the math symbol "less than". The variable n represents the number of students.

  <em>the number of students</em> is fewer than 18

translates to ...

  n < 18

__

The wording "at least" translates to the math symbol "greater than or equal to."

  <em>the number of students</em> is at least 15

translates to ...

  n ≥ 15

Two people are 100 feet apart on opposite sides of a tree. The angles of elevation from the people to the top of the tree are 30
cricket20 [7]
We need to solve for the height of the tree given two angles and distance between the two observers. See attached drawing for a better understanding of the problem.
We derive to equations using SOH CAH TOA such as below:
sin30 = h / x
sin 45 = h / (100-x)

sin 45 (100-x) = xsin30 
70.71 - 0.71x = 0.5x
70.71 = 1.21 x
x = 58.44

Solving for h, we have:
h = xsin30
h = 58.44 sin30
h = 29.22

The height of the tree is 29.22 feet.
