X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Rule for rounding:</u>
- Round up if number is between 5 and 9
- Round down if number is between 0 and 4
<u>What numbers in hundredths can be rounded to 14.5?</u>
and
<u>From above we see that:</u>
- The greatest decimal is 14.54
- The least decimal is 14.45
<u>Solution-</u>
Zachary purchased a computer for 1800 on a payment plan. (Initial Money)
3 months after he bought the computer, his balance was 1350. (Money after 3 months)
Total money paid in 3 months = 1800-1350 = 450
Money paid per month = 450/3 = 150
5 months after he bought the computer, his balance was 1050.
Total spent = 1800-1050 = 750 = (5× 150)
So the equation that models the balance b after m months,
b = 1800 - m(150)
∴ Here, the slope signifies the constant monthly deduction of $150.
65%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Full capacity= 200000 litres
Amount of fuel used during flight= 130000 litres
Now, finding percentage of fuel used on the flight.
∴ Percentage of fuel used=
Solving it, we will get
∴ 65% of fuel capacity been used in this flight.
