Using the tangent function, tan (30) = $\frac{100}{x}$ .

Therefore, the length of the shadow is approximately 173.21 feet.

How do you use a abacus in a simple way?

Allushta [10]

Each column is a digit, and the top two beads each represent 5 and the bottom 5 beads each represent 1. To read it, you add up the values of the "top" beads that are dropped down and the "bottom" beads that are raised up, and you read the number left to right.

Assignment due today Q-Q<br> 9 1/2=k/9

nikdorinn [45]

$\huge\mathfrak\blue{answer}$

$= q - \frac{q91}{2} = \frac{k}{9}$

$\blue{switch \: sides}$

$= \frac{k}{9} = q - \frac{q91}{2}$

$\blue{multiply \: 9 \: both \: sides}$

$= \frac{9k}{9} = 9q - 9 \: . \: \frac{q91}{2}$

$\blue{lastly \: simplify}$

$=\underline {k = 9q - \frac{{9q}^{91} }{2} }$

Answer the question to become the brainliest

Answer:

a) The distance travelled on the cycle in the first 14 seconds is 96 meters.

b) The acceleration in the first 4 seconds is 2 meters per square second.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The distance travelled by the cycle is equal to the area below the curve, which is the sum of the first triangle and the rectangle:

$\Delta x = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(8\,\frac{m}{s} \right) \cdot (4\,s-0\,s)+\left(8\,\frac{m}{s}\right)\cdot (14\,s-4\,s)$

$\Delta x = 16\,m +80\,m$

$\Delta x = 96\,m$

The distance travelled on the cycle in the first 14 seconds is 96 meters.

b) The acceleration is represented by the slope of the line, which is determined by definition of secant line:

$a = \frac{v(4\,s)-v(0\,s)}{4\,s-0\,s}$ (1)

$a = \frac{8\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s}}{4\,s-0\,s}$

$a =2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

The acceleration in the first 4 seconds is 2 meters per square second.
