Which represents the solution set to the inequality 5.1(3 + 2.2x) > –14.25 – 6(1.7x + 4)? ​
Tanya [424]

Answer:

1. Simplify the inequality  5.1(3 + 2.2x) > -14.25 - 6(1.7x + 4):

15.3+11.22x>-14.25-10.2x-24 10;15.3+11.22x>-10.2x-38.75.  

2. Separate terms with x and without x in different sides:

11.22x+10.2x>-38.75-15.3.

3. Add similar terms:

21.42x>-54.05.  

4. Divide by 21.42:

x>-54.05/21.42

x>-2.5

to estimate the height of the jin mao tower in shanghai , a tourist sights the top of the tower form a mirror that is 86.7 meter
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The height of the tower = 420.48 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

For better understanding of the solution, see the figure attached below :

Let the height of the tower be x meters

Now, using the laws of reflection : angle of reflection = angle of incidence

Also, both the tower and the tourist are standing parallel to each other

⇒ ∠A = ∠i ( Alternate interior angles are equal)

Similarly, ∠D = ∠r ( Alternate interior angles)

But, ∠i = ∠r

⇒ ∠A = ∠D

Also, the tourist and the tower is perpendicular to the ground surface.

⇒ m∠B = m∠E = 90°

Now, in ΔABC and ΔDEC

∠A = ∠D (Proved above)

m∠B = m∠E = 90°

So, by AA postulate of similarity of triangles, ΔABC ~ ΔDEC

As the sides of similar triangles are proportional to each other

\frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{EC}\\\\\implies\frac{1.92}{x}=\frac{0.4}{87.6}\\\\\implies x=\frac{87.6\times 1.92}{0.4}\\\\\bf\implies x = 420.48\textbf{ meters}

Hence, The height of the tower = 420.48 meters
