To find the distance between her home and her latest position:

According to the question, the diagram is,

Consider the right triangle,

AB=120 km

BC=50 km

To find AC:

Using Pythagoras theorem,

\begin{gathered} AC^2=AB^2+BC^2_{} \\ =120^2+50^2 \\ =14400+2500 \\ =16900 \\ =130\text{ km} \end{gathered}

Hence, the distance between the new position and her home is 130 km.

Brett is 75 feet from the base of a building. he measures the angle of elevation to the top of the building and records it as 80
SashulF [63]
This is the concept of trigonometry, we are required to calculate the number of floors the building has given the information above;
# floors=[height of the building]/[height of each floor]
height of each floor=17 ft
let the height of the building be,h.
h is given by;
tan theta=opposite/adjacent
theta=80
opposite=h
adjacent=75 ft
thus
tan 80=h/75
h=75 tan 80
h=425.35 ft
thus the number of floors will be:
425.35/17
=25.020≈25 floors

Find g (a + 1 ), if g(x)=5x-3 ​
nordsb [41]

Answer:

g(a+1)=5a+2

Step-by-step explanation:

so (a+1) is the value of x

you can write it like this:

x=a+1

using substitution, we can swap out all 'x's for 'a+1's. like so;

g(a+1)=5(a+1)-3  -- given

        =5a+5-3   --  distribute

        =5a+2      --  simplify!

Hope i helped! have a great day! please mark brainliest!!
