Cosα=x/L

L=x/cosα, we are told that the ladder base is 48 ft from the base of the wall and α=39° so:

L=48/cos39 ft

L≈61.76 ft (to nearest hundredth of a foot)

lesantik [10]
This value is in the positive quadrant meaning that all values remain positive. To answer this problem you must have an understanding of trig ratios being that tangent is opposite/adjacent. When you plot the points and draw a triangle using the origin of the point, you find that the adjacent value is 5 and opposite value is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression of the function is

h(x)= -4x^2+36x

The roots can be seen in the image below

You have a formula which represents the height over time.

The roots of the equation indicate that the height is equal to zero

The correct option is

A new phone costs $230 and the sales tax rate is 7%. What is the total cost of the camera after tax?
rosijanka [135]

That's a question about percentage.

One way to represent percentage is using decimal number. In this way, 1 is equivalent to 100% and the other less percentages using numbers between 0 and 1.

Examples:

  • 90% is equivalent to 0,90.
  • 5% is equivalent to 0.05. It's not 0.5 because 0.5 is equivalent to 50%.
  • 13.17% is equivalent to 0.1317.
  • 245% is equivalent to 2.45.

If we want to know the percentage of a number, we should multiplacate the number by the porcentage in the decimal number form.

Examples:

  • 55.90% of 200 is equal to: 200 \times 0.5590 = 111.8
  • 360% of 88 is equal to: 88\times 3.6 = 316.8

In our problem, we have a phone with a increase of 7%. To solve that, it's important to perceive that $230 is equal to 100% and with a increase of 7%, we will pay 107%.

107% in the decimal number form is 1.07. With that information, we should multiplicate 1.07 by the original value and we will find the answer.

We know that 230\times 1.07 = 246.1, therefore, the total cost of the phone after tax is $246.1.

I hope I've helped. :D

Enjoy your studies. \o/
