the bag of rice weighs 4.5 pounds

Multiply 4.5 with 16 oz (as 1 lb = 16 oz)

4.5 x 16 = 72.

The bag of rice has 72 oz of rice inside.

The recipe only needs 60 oz of rice ∴ True, you will have enough, with 12 oz left over.

hope this helps

A school flag poll casts a 16 foot shadow on the lawn. A teacher stood at the shadows edge and measure the angle of elevation to

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

30.1 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a school flag poll casts a 16 foot shadow on the lawn. A teacher stood at the shadows edge and measure the angle of elevation to the top of the poll at 62°. We are asked to find the height of the tall.

First of all, we will draw a diagram to represent our give scenario as shown in the attachment.

We can see that side length with 16 feet is adjacent side and height of the pole (h) is opposite side to angle of elevation.

We know that tangent relates opposite side of a right triangle to its adjacent side.

$\text{tan}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}}$

$\text{tan}(62^{\circ})=\frac{h}{16}$

$h=16\cdot \text{tan}(62^{\circ})$

$h=16\cdot 1.880726465346$

$h=30.0916234\approx 30.1$

Therefore, the poll is approximately 30.1 feet tall.

Which system is equivalent to<br> y= 9x^2<br> x+y=5<br> ?

melomori [17]

Answer : Option A

Explanation:

we can clearly see that from x+ y=5 we can substitute y = 5-x in y = 9x^2

Option B is clearly incorrect x can not be y -5

Option C is incorrect because y can not be 5 +x

Option D is incorrect because its y = 9x^2 not y^2 =9x^2 so y can not be 3x

if its y^2 = 9x^2 then only implies y = 3x
