Answer:
Option A: 12
Step-by-step explanation:
From the image of the triangle given, we can see that:
XM = ZM
We are given that:
XM = 2x + 2 and ZM = 4x - 8
Thus;
2x + 2 = 4x - 8
Rearrange to get;
4x - 2x = 8 + 2
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5
Thus, XM = 2(5) + 2
XM = 12
Applying the tangent ratio, the angle of elevation of the sun, to the nearest degree, is: 36°.
<h3>What is the Tangent Ratio?</h3>
In a right triangle, tan ∅ = opposite length / adjacent length is the tangent ratio.
Given the following:
- Angle of elevation = ∅
- Opposite length = 125 ft
- Adjacent length = 172 ft
Apply the tangent ratio:
tan ∅ = 125/172
tan ∅ = 125/172
∅ = tan^(-1)(125/172)
∅ ≈ 36°

Answer:
1 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
No of cubes = 8
Edge length of each cube = 1/2 inch
Volume of cube is given where edge is the edge length
Thus volume of cube with Edge length is calculated as explained below
Question states that there are 8 such cubes joined to make a right rectangular prism. Thus volume of right rectangular prism will be sum of volume of 8 such cubes.
volume of right rectangular prism = 8 times the volume of 1/2 inched cubes
= 8* 1/8 = 1 cubic inches
Thus volume of right rectangular prism is 1 cubic inches.
Answer:
step 3 has incorrect justification.
Step-by-step explanation:
because it was combine like terms but 8 is still in left hand side. So,combine like terms 3 has incorrect justification.
