The angle of elevation from the hiker to the park ranger is the same as the angle of depression from the ranger to the hiker, 29°.
The tangent function of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side (500') to the adjacent side (x) in the right triangle shown. That is
tan(29°) = 500' / x
Multiplying the equation by x/tan(29°) gives
x = 500' / tan(29°)
x ≈ 500' / 0.5543
x ≈ 902 ft

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3x > -4
cross multiply
1>-4 × 3x
1>-12x
solve for x
x = -1/12
Answer:
not 100% but I think it's Step 1
Answer:
3/5 + 7/10 = 6/10 + 7/10 = 13/10 = 1 and 3/10 lbs. needed
She has 4/5 *3/1 bags = 12/5 = 2 and 2/5 pounds
2 2/5 - 1 3/10 = 2 4/10 - 1 3/10 = 1 and 1/10 pounds left over
