There are infinitely many solutions to this problem (which is why it asks what could those numbers be), so you just have to make one up!
Start with the first sentence.
x + y + z = 6.0
Now one of those numbers has to be less than 1. I'll choose x. And I'll choose a random number, say, 0.7.
0.7 + y + z = 6.0
Now I'll subtract 0.7 from both sides to see what y and z have to add up to.
0.7 + y + z - 0.7 = 6.0 - 0.7
y + z = 5.3
Now I'll choose a random number for y that's less than 5.3.
2.6 + z = 5.3
And subtract 2.6 from both sides to find z.
2.6 + z - 2.6 = 5.3 - 2.6
z = 2.7
And now we have our numbers!
x = <u>0.7</u>
y = <u>2.6</u>
z = <u>2.7</u>
Answer:
The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;
Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)
Tan 48° = s ÷ 150
⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°
= 150 × 1.1106
= 166.59
s ≅ 166.6 feet
Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
Answer: No she cannot cover it
Step-by-step explanation:
1yd² = 1296in²
16 x 11 x 9 = 1584in²
1296in² < 1584in²
