5,998.7714 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Well find x in the illustration;

First To find the opposite side of the right-angled triangle we'll using tangent of the given angle

Tangent Ф = Length of the opposite side / Length of the adjacent side

Tan 43 = h / 6390

h = Tan (43) * 6390

h = 5,958.7714 ft

Then we'll add the height of the beacon which is 40 ft above ground;

x = 5,958.7714 ft + 40 ft

x = 5,998.7714 ft

Solve the system of linear equations by elimination.<br><br> 2x+5y=16<br> 3x−5y=−1<br><br> Get (x,y)
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5y=16

3x-5y=-1

Subtract 2x from the first equation

5y=16-2x

Substitute the given value of 5y into the equation

3x-(5y)=16

3x-(16-2x)=-1

Solve for x

3x-(16-2x)=-1

3x-16+2x=-1

5x-16=-1

5x=15

x=3

Substitute the given value of x into the equation

3x-5y=-1

3*3-5y=-1

Solve

3*3-5y=-1

9-5y=-1

-5y=-10

y=2
