Answer: $376
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 13,536 by 36
13,536/36 = 376
Answer:
-15
Step-by-step explanation:
-24 + (1-4)^2 (solve parentheses first)
= -24 + (-3)^2 (solve exponent)
= -24 + 9
= -15

Explanation and work:
To find the answer for this question, we would use the numbers we know that was provided in the question and use it to get us the answer.
The equation we would use in this type of question is the Pythagorean Theorem.
Pythagorean Theorem:
a² + b² = c²
When you draw out the different locations, it would end up looking like a triangle since you trying to find the diagonal line from the grocery store to the house. In the triangle, it would be the hypotenuse. I will put a picture below.
Lets start solving:
1.8 would be plugged into "a"
2.4 will be plugged into "b"
(1.8)² + (2.4)² = c²
↓ ↓ ↓
3.24 + 5.76 = c²
↓
9 = c²
↓
√9 = √c²
↓
3 = c
3 miles would be your FINAL answer.

Three hundred and nine thousand and seventeen
Answer: 4.5 miles
Explanation:
When you draw the situation you find two triangles.
1) Triangle to the east of the helicopter
a) elevation angle from the high school to the helicopter = depression angle from the helicopter to the high school = 20°
b) hypotensue = distance between the high school and the helicopter
c) opposite-leg to angle 20° = heigth of the helicopter
d) adyacent leg to the angle 20° = horizontal distance between the high school and the helicopter = x
2) triangle to the west of the helicopter
a) elevation angle from elementary school to the helicopter = depression angle from helicopter to the elementary school = 62°
b) distance between the helicopter and the elementary school = hypotenuse
c) opposite-leg to angle 62° = height of the helicopter
d) adyacent-leg to angle 62° = horizontal distance between the elementary school and the helicopter = 5 - x
3) tangent ratios
a) triangle with the helicpoter and the high school
tan 20° = Height / x ⇒ height = x tan 20°
b) triangle with the helicopter and the elementary school
tan 62° = Height / (5 - x) ⇒ height = (5 - x) tan 62°
c) equal the height from both triangles:
x tan 20° = (5 - x) tan 62°
x tan 20° = 5 tan 62° - x tan 62°
x tan 20° + x tan 62° = 5 tan 62°
x (tan 20° + tan 62°) = 5 tan 62°
⇒ x = 5 tant 62° / ( tan 20° + tan 62°)
⇒ x = 4,19 miles
=> height = x tan 20° = 4,19 tan 20° = 1,525 miles
4) Calculate the hypotenuse of this triangle:
hipotenuese ² = x² + height ² = (4.19)² + (1.525)² = 19.88 miles²
hipotenuse = 4.46 miles
Rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5 miles
That is the distance between the helicopter and the high school.
