Answer:
20.485 Meters
Step-by-step explanation:
So first you wanna draw a diagram. Start with the tower, then on the ground to the left (or right) draw a point. The point will be labeled as 42 m away from the tower. Now draw a line from that point to the top of the tower. This makes your triangle, and that angle you just drew that touches the point is 26 degrees.
Now, since you have a right triangle you can use trig. You know an angle and a side. Specifically, relative to the 26 degree angle you know the adjacent angle and want the opposite, which is the tower. So opposite and adjacent is tangent. So you set up tan(26) = o/42 where o is the opposite side.
So solving you get o = 20.485 meters
"log" standing alone actually means "logarithm to the base 10."
Thus, y = log x <=> y = log x
10
y
Stated another way (inverse functions), x = 10
Answer:
16 bicycles and 21 tricycles
Step-by-step explanation:
Both bicycles and tricycles have 1 set of handlebars. Bicycles have 2 wheels while tricycles have 3.
Using this information, set up a system of equations, where b is the number of bicycles and t is the number of tricycles:
b + t = 37
2b + 3t = 95
Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:
-2b - 2t = -74
2b + 3t = 95
t = 21
Then, plug in 21 as t into one of the equations:
b + t = 37
b + 21 = 37
b = 16
So, there are 16 bicycles and 21 tricycles
22%=0.22 as a decimal, and 0.22 is written as 11/50
