Answer:

2824

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the number of pounds and divide by the number of people:

3.474×10⁹ / 1.23×10⁶

Divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

(3.474 / 1.23) × 10⁹⁻⁶

2.824×10³

So the country produced about 2,824 pounds of garbage per person in 2005.

3(2x + 12) = -2(x - 4) + x
mart [117]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Use the distributive property to get 6x + 36 = -2x + 8 + x

2. Combine like terms 6x + 36 = -x + 8

3. Subtract 36 on both sides. 7x + 36 = 8 > 7x = -28

4. Divide by 7

-28/7 = -4  x=4

A tower casts a shadow that is 60 feet long when the angle of elevation of the sun is 65 degrees. How tall is the tower?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

128.67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We would be solving this question using the Trigonometric function of tan.

Tan( of the angle of elevation) = height of the tower ÷ height of the shadow.

Angle of elevation = 65°

Height of the tower = unknown, which is designated as X

Height of the shadow = 60 feet.

Therefore,

tan 65° = X/ 60 feet

We crossmultiply

X = tan 65° × 60 feet

X = 128.67041523 feet.

Approximately, X = 128.67 feet.

Therefore, the tower is 128.67 feet tall.

Can someone please explain how to do this.
lutik1710 [3]
Set the to equal:

x^2 - 4x+4 = 2x-4
 solve for X

subtract 2x from each side:
x^2 -6x + 4 = -4

subtract 4 from each side:

x^2 -6x = -8

add 8 to both sides:

x^2 -6x +8 = 0

factor the polynomial:

x = 4 and x = 2

using the line equation replace x with 2 and 4 and solve for y

y = 2(2) - 4 = 0
y = 2(4)-4 = 4

so the 2 points the line  crosses the curve is (2,0) and (4,4)

using those 2 points you can calculate the length:
 distance = sqrt((x2-x1)^2 +(y2-y1)^2

distance = sqrt( (4-2)^2 + (4-0)^2)

distance = sqrt (2^2 + 4^2)
 distance = sqrt (4+16)
= sqrt 20 
= 2 sqrt(5)  EXACT LENGTH
