The length of the bridge is 12.12 feet.

The length the dog swam is 32.36 feet.

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>What is a right angle triangle?</h3>

A right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. Therefore, the sides and angle can be found using trigonometric ratios.

The length of the bridge is the opposite side of the triangle and the length the dog swim is the hypotenuse side of the triangle.

Therefore,

Let's find the length of the bridge as follows:

tan 68° = opposite / adjacent

tan 68° = 30 / l

cross multiply

l = 30 / tan 68

l = 12.1212121212

length of the bridge = 12.12 ft

The length the dog swim is as follows:

sin 68°= opposite / hypotenuse

sin 68° = 30 / h

h = 30 / sin 68

h = 32.3561767942

The distance the dog swimmed = 32.36 ft

Round 6,703.58 to the nearest tenth
strojnjashka [21]
The tenth place is the number on the right of the decimal which is

6703.58

So to round to the nearest tenth, look at the number before it, which is 8. The rule for rounding: 5+ = round up, 4 or less = keep as same number

8 is a number that is 5+ so we round 5 (number in the tenths place) up one number

your school sold 456 tickets for a high school play. An adult ticket cost $3.50. A student ticket cost $1. Total to ket sales eq
Svet_ta [14]
A + s = 456........a = 456 - s
3.5a + s = 1131

3.5(456 - s) + s = 1131
1596 - 3.5s + s = 1131
-3.5s + s = 1131 - 1596
-2.5s = - 465
s = -465/-2.5
s = 186 <====== student tickets sold

a + s = 456
a + 186 = 456
a = 456 - 186
a = 270 <==== adult tickets sold
