Answer:
17.11 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
You are using trigonometry in this problem.
The height of the flagpole represents the side <u><em>opposite</em></u> the given angle.
The base of the triangle is given as 19 meters and represents the side <u><em>adjacent</em></u> to the given angle.
Out of the main trigonomentric functions (sine, cosine, and tangent), only tangent uses both the opposite and adjacent sides.
Tan(angle) = opposite / adjacent
If we plug in what we know into that equation: <em>tan(42 degrees) = h / 19</em>
This means that <em>your answer = 19 * tan(42) = 17.11</em> meters
For this case we must algebraically rewrite the given expression. So:
x: It is the variable that represents an unknown number
"double a number" is represented as: 
"6 less than double a number" is represented as: 
So, the final expression is:
If we want to rewrite the expression in an equivalent way, we take common factor 2:
Asnwer:
Equivalent expression:
This question is worded slightly strangely but I believe I understand it.
To eliminate x, multiply the second equation by 8, so that it becomes 4x + .8y= 96
Then you can subtract 4x on the top by 4x on the bottom to eliminate it.
