What is the length of AB ? 4 units 5 units 6 units 7 units

Am on the write path and can someone explain me what I have to do?

You would have to find the unit rate which is 26 feet per 1 minute (52/2) Otherwise you are correct

Which strategie would eliminate a variable in the system of equations? −x+6y=8 7x−y=−2

NeX [460]

Answer:

substitution (or addition)

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple strategy for this system is to use substitution. The first equation is easily solved for x, so you could substitute that into the second equation:

x = 6y -8

7(6y -8) -y = -2 . . . . . x variable eliminated

__

The second equation is easily solved for y, so you could substitute that into the first equation.

y = 7x +2

-x +6(7x +2) = 8 . . . . . y-variable eliminated

__

The "addition" method is always a good way to eliminate a variable.

When the coefficient of a variable in one equation is a divisor of the coefficient of that variable in the other equation, a simple multiplication and addition will do.

To make the coefficient of x in the first equation the opposite of the coefficient of x in the second, multiply the first equation by 7. Adding that result to the second equation will eliminate x:

7(-x +6y) +(7x -y) = 7(8) +(-2)

42y -y = 56 -2 . . . . . . x-variable eliminated

Likewise, the second equation can be multiplied by 6 and added to the first to eliminate the y-variable:

(-x +6y) +6(7x -y) = (8) +6(-2)

-x +42x = -4 . . . . . . . . y-variable eliminated

__

It is often the case that using either substitution or "addition" requires about the same amount of work.

Here, the solutions are (x, y) = (-4/41, 54/41).

A flagpole sits on the top of a cliff that is 25 m above sea level. If the angle of elevation from a boat on the water to the to

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

3.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the distance between the cliff and the boat.

Since the cliff is 25 m above sea level and the distance between the boat and the height of the cliff are perpendicular, and the line of sight of the boat to the base of a cliff is 29 , these three form a right-angled triangle with hypotenuse side as the line of sight of the elevation of the boat to the base of the cliff.

So, using trigonometric ratios, tan29° = 25/x

x = 25 m/tan29° = 25 m/0.5543 = 45.1 m

Also, the line of sight of the top of the flagpole, the cliff and the distance between the boat and the cliff form a right-angled triangle with hypotenuse side as the line of sight of the top of the flagpole,

Now, the angle of elevation of the top of the flagpole from the top of the boat is 32°, we now find the angle opposite to x, the distance from the boat to the cliff.

Since it is a right-angled triangle, thus one angle is 90° and the unknown angle is A.

So, 90° + 32° + A = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

122° + A = 180°

A = 180° - 122°

A = 58°

Let y be the length of the flagpole. In this same triangle, using the sine rule, with x being the side opposite A and 25 + y being the side opposite the 32° angle, where 25 + y = height of cliff + length of flagpole, then

x/sinA = (25 + y)/sin32°

25 + y = xsin32°/sinA

y = xsin32°/sinA - 25

y = 45.1sin32°/sin58° - 25

y = 45.1 × 0.5299/0.8480 - 25

y = 45.1 × 0.6249 - 25

y =28.183 - 25

y = 3.183

y ≅ 3.2 m to one decimal place

Find the volume of this square based pyramid. 5ft 6 ft [? ]ft

Sav [38]

Answer:

48 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the height, you can use the slant height and the base.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem and 3 as the triangle's base,

a²+b²=c²

3²+b²=5²

9+b²=25

b²=16

b=4

The height of the pyramid is 4.

Volume formula for the pyramid is $\frac{1}{3} *b*h$

Inserting our measurements:

$\frac{1}{3} *6*6*4=\\2*6*4=\\12*4=\\48$
