The height of the tree is 249.5 feet

<h3>How to determine the height of the tree?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Elevation angle = 80 degrees
  • Shadow length (L) = 44 feet

Let the height of the tree be x.

So, we have:

tan(80) = x/44

Multiply both sides by 44

x = 44 * tan(80)

Evaluate

x = 249.5

Hence, the height of the tree is 249.5 feet

(1.2×10^2) + (3.04×10^5)
PSYCHO15rus [73]

(1.2×10^2) + (3.04×10^5)

They must be to the same power to add

3.04 *10^5   to change to the 2nd power (5-2=3) move the decimal 3 places to the right = 3040. * 10^2

1.2 * 10^2   + 3040 *10^2=

add the numbers keep the exponents the same

3041.2 * 10^2

there can only be 1 number before the decimal in scientific notation so we need to move the decimal 3 places to the left, which adds 3 to the exponent

3.0412 * 10 ^ (2+3)

3.0412 * 10^5

Find the product of the given polynomials. <br> (5x + 8 – 6r) (4 + 2r – 7)<br><br><br>​
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

-12r² + 10xr - 15x + 34r - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Organize it, variables first - as well as adding constants such as 4 and -7

(5x - 6r + 8) (2r - 3)

2. Start by multiplying the 5x by (2r - 3), then -6r, followed by 8

(10xr - 15x) + (-12r^2 + 18r) + (16r - 24)

3. Simplify

10xr - 15x - 12r² + 18r + 16r - 24

4. Order by greatest to smallest factorial

-12r² + 10xr - 15x + 18r + 16r - 24

5. Combine like variables

-12r² + 10xr - 15x + 34r - 24

-16 + the quotient of a<br> number and -4 is -3
alexira [117]

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

Then 16 + x/-4 = -3, so

x/-4 = -16-3 = -19 (add -16 on both sides)

x = -4*-19 = 76 (multiply by -4 on both sides)

4. The Bulldog Theater charges $9.10 for each adult ticket and $7.75 for each student ticket. Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Two adult tickets and 5 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=adult tickets   Let s=student tickets

You know that each adult ticket is $9.10 and each student ticket cost $7.75. At the end, it cost $56.95 for both students and adults so the first equation should be 9.10a+7.75s=56.95. To get the second equation, you know that Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets in total that were both students and adults. Therefore, the second equation should be a+s=7. The two equations are 9.10a+7.75s=56.95

a+s=7.

Now, use substitution to solve this. I will isolate s from this equation so the new equation should be s=-a+7. Plug in this equation to the other equation, it will look like this 9.10a+7.75(-a+7)=56.95. Simplify this to get 9.10a-7.75a+54.25=56.95. Simplify this again and the equation will become 1.35a=2.70. Then divide 1.35 by each side to get a=2. This Mrs. Williams bought two adult tickets. Plug in 2 into a+s=7, it will look like this (2)+s=7. Simplify this and get s=5. This means Mrs. Williams bought five adult tickets. Therefore she bought 2 adult tickets and 5 student tickets.

Hope this helps
