We can set up a model for this problem

4000 + 1500x = 17,000
1500x + 4000 = 17,000

Now solve for x

1500x + 4000 =  17000
1500x + 4000 - 4000=  17000 - 4000
1500x = 13000
1500x /  1500 = 13000 / 1500
x =  \frac{26}{3}

Corey flying a kite with 105 meters of string.His string makes an angle of 42 degrees with the level ground. How high is the kit
mafiozo [28]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that Corey is flying a kite with 105 meters of string.

The string makes an angle of 42° with the ground level.

We need to determine the height of the kite.

<u>Height of the kite: </u>

The height of the kite can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, we have;

 sin \ \theta=\frac{opp}{hyp}

From the given data, the values are  \theta=42^{\circ}, opp = h (height of the kite) and hyp = 105 meters.

Substituting the values, we get;

sin \ 42=\frac{h}{105}

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 105, we get;

sin \ 42 \times 105=h

0.669 \times 105=h

        70.245=h

Rounding off to the nearest meter, we get;

h=70

Thus, the height of the kite is 70 meters.
