Answer: The distance between the fence and where the string is pegged to the ground is 7.07 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of string = 10 feet

Angle of elevation = 45°

We need to find the distance between the fence and where the string is pegged to the ground.

We will apply "Cosine formula "

\cos 45^\circ=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{Base}{10}\\\\Base=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\Base=7.07\ feet

Hence, the distance between the fence and where the string is pegged to the ground is 7.07 feet.

Answer:

<h2>x=-2 or x=8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate by the x from one side of the equation.

|x-3|=5

x-3=-5 and x-3=5

1. x-3=-5

Add 3 from both sides.

x-3+3=-5+3

Solve.

-5+3=(-2)

x=-2

2. x-3=5

Add 3 from both sides.

x-3+3=5+3

Solve.

5+3=8

x=8

Therefore, the correct answer is x=-2 or x=8.
