Answer:

749 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a right-angle triangle so you can use trig ratios

750 feet

tan(59) = opposite/adjacent

tan(59l = X/450

X = 450×tan(59)

X = 748.9 ft

X = 749 ft (correct to 3 sf)

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Find out the  how much chlorine is in the pool .

To prove

As given

The amount of chlorine in a swimming pool varies directly with the volume of water.

The pool has 2.5 milligrams of chlorine per liter of water.

i.e

2.5 milligrams of chorine = 1 litre of water

There are 8000 gallons of water in the swimming pool.

As 1 gallons = 3.78541 litre (Approx)

Now convert 8000 gallons of water in litres.

8000 gallons = 8000 × 3.78541 litre

                      = 30283.28 litres

Now calculate chlorine in the pool for 30283.28 litres  of waters.

As

2.5 milligrams of chlorine = 1 litre of water

2.5 × 30283.28 milligrams of chlorine = 30283.28 litre of water

75708.2 milligrams of chlorine for 30283.28 litre of water .

Nathan had an infection, and his doctor wanted him to take penicillin. Because Nathan’s father and paternal grandfather were all
Art [367]
Nathan has an infection and he needs to be treated with penicillin
But there’s a 75% probability of him being allergic to penicillin
And to test if the skin reacts to penicillin, the test is 98% accuracy
So even if he has the allergy the test is only 98% accurate of identifying the allergy
Therefore we are asked to find the probability of both these events happening
Event 1 and event 2 both should happen then. When the ‘and’ function is used in probabilities then the probabilities of both events happening should be multiplied
Therefore probability that Nathan has the allergy and test predicts it is
= 75% x 98% = 0.735
The answer is D. 0.735

Write a real-world problem that could be represented by the following inequality. 70 + 5x < 30 + 15x
kondaur [170]

Justin wants to paint his room. So he put together some quotations from two different painters. The first painter's total charge was based on the number of hours (denoted as x) worked was modeled as f( x ) = 70 + 5 x, while that of the second painter was g( x ) = 30 + 15 x. Justin knows that it will take more than 4 hours to decorate the house so he was certain to go with the first painter whose cost is low-priced when the number of hours is above 4 hours.
