See attached diagram.
A right triangle is formed with the 350m adjacent to the 22° angle.
We want to find the height of the triangle, the side opposite.
We can use the tangent ratio (opposite/adjacent) to find this height.
tan(22°) = x/350
Multiply each side by 350
350tan(22°) = x ≈ 141.4 m

Answer:

Solve by substitution

[y=5/2x-4]

[y= -x+3]

Substitute y = -x +3

[-x+3=5/2x-4]

Isolate x for -x+3=5/2x-4: x=2

For y = -x+3

Substitute x = 2

y= -2+3

Simplify

y=1

The solutions to the system of equations are:

y=1 x=2

Answer:

A=8x-8

B=5x+25

A=B(BEING corresponding angles)

8x-8=5x+25

8x-5x=25+8

3x=33

x=33/3

x=11

now 8x-8= 8×11-8

= 88-8

=80

5x+25= 5×11+25

=55+25

= 80

A=B#
