To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
 1- You have that the length of the wire is 7 meters and the <span>angle of depression is 47 degrees. Therefore, you have:
 Cos</span>α=adjacent/hypotenuse
 α=47°
 adjacent=x
 hypotenuse=7
 2- When you substitute the values above, you obtain:
 Cod(47°)=x/7
 3-Solve for x as following:
 x=7[Cos(47°)]
 x=4.8
 The answer is: 4.8 meters

Can someone please help me with this question?
Charra [1.4K]
So what I would do is first multiply the mean by 4 and that is the total u need, 146.5, to have a mean of 36 and 5/8. Next I add the lengths given, which is 110.625, and then I would subtract it from 146.5 which is 35.875 which is 35 and 7/8. You can also check the answer by finding the mean of the 4 numbers and determining if it comes out to 36 and 5/8. The answer is C. Hope this helps!

The equation f = v + at represents the final velocity of an object, f, with an initial velocity, v, and an acceleration rate, a,
omeli [17]
<span>f = v + at

Subtract v from both sides.

f - v = at

Divide both sides by a.

(f - v)/a = t

Switch sides.

t = (f - v)/a

t = \dfrac{f - v}{a}</span>
