The angle of interest is the one at the end of the shadow looking up toward the flagpole. Thus the length adjacent to the angle is that of the shadow, 22 ft. The length opposite the angle is the height of the flagpole, 45 ft. The tangent of the angle is the ratio of the opposite length to the adjacent one.

... tan(angle) = (45 ft)/(22 ft)

... angle = arctan(45/22) ≈ 63.9° . . . . . matches selection A.

bob wants to lose weight. he currently weighs 220 pounds. on average he is losing 5 pounds per week by eating 1000 calories a da

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

9 weeks and the constant is 5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Bob starts at 220 pounds, but his goal is 175. We subtract those two terms to find the number of pounds he is trying to loose. 220-175 = 45. Since we know that he is loosing 5 pounds a week, then we know to divide. 45/5= 9 weeks. The constant would be five because that factor doesn't change. He looses at a constant of 5 pounds.

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 8(- x - 7) = 120 ( divide both sides by - 8 )

- x - 7 = - 15 ( add 7 to both sides )

- x = - 8 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = 8

The diagonals of a square measure 14 cm. Which is the length of a side of the square?

Kryger [21]

The length of the side of a square is 7√2.

To find the diagonal, you multiply one side of the square by √2. To find the side of the square, I just divided 14/√2 and got 7√2.
