Answer:

h=404.89

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for side h, which is opposite of the observer. We know that the side adjacent to the observer is 500 feet. We also know that the angle from the observer to the bird is 39°. Because we have these values, SOH CAH TOA tells us that we should use tangent, opposite over adjacent.

We can set up our equation as follows:

tan(39°)=h/500

We can then solve for h:

500*tan(39°)=h

h=404.89

Alexus [3.1K]

If we let p and t be the masses of the paper and textbook, respectively, the equations that would best represent the given in this item are:

     (1)       20p + 9t = 44.4

     (2)       (20 + 5)p + (9 + 1)t = 51

The values of p and t from the equation are 0.6 and 3.6, respectively. Thus, each paperback weighs 0.6 pounds and each textbook weighs 3.6 pounds.

A submarine is descending to examine the seafloor 2,100 feet below the surface. it takes the submarine 2 hours to make this desc
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = time

y = elevation

At x = 0  ,  y  = 0

It takes the submarine 2 hours to make descent of 2100 ft

=> x = 2 , y  = - 2100

Slope = ( -2100 - 0)/(2 - 0)  =  -1050

y - 0 = -1050 ( x -0)

=> y = -1050x

1050x  + y = 0

represent the relationship between the submarine's elevation and time.
