The height of the kite is approximately 112.763 meters above the ground.

<h3>How to determine the height of a kite above the ground</h3>

The situation is represented by the following geometric diagram, a right triangle with a known hypotenuse (r), in meters, and a known acute angle (θ), in degrees. The height of the kite (h), in meters, is represented by the leg opposite to the acute angle and can be found by trigonometric functions:

sin θ = h / r

h = r · sin θ

h = 120 · sin 70°

h ≈ 112.763 m

The height of the kite is approximately 112.763 meters.

Answer:

y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Every y value is double the x value on top.

y=6:
6 = 3 × ?

? = 2

y=10:

10 = 5 × ?

? = 2

And so on....

So the equation that represents this data is :

y=2x

A certain pickup truck gets 20mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. If the driver drives 270 mi on 11 gal of gas, determine
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

95 city and 175 highway miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The driver gets 20 mpg in city, and 28 mpg on the highway.

An equation that could be written is

20x+28y=270

This equation accounts for the distance traveled.

x+y=11

This equotion accounts for how many gallons were driven.

Multiply the bottom equation by 20, so you can solve the set of equations.

20x+28y=270

20x+20y=220

subtract them

8y=50

y=6.25

now plug this back into x+y=11

x+6.25=11

x=4.75

Now 4.75×20=95 city miles and 6.25×28=175 highway miles.
