Answer:

246.979 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

When we draw our picture, we should be able to see that the angle of depression from the point of view is equal to the angle of elevation from the ground. We also know the height, and we are trying to find horizontal <em>x</em>. We must use tan∅ to solve:

tan39° = 200/x

xtan39° = 200

x = 200/tan39°

x = 246.979

Complete the missing value in the solution to the equation.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

y = − 1

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright so this is our equation:

y − 3   =   2 ( x − 1 )

We will substitute:

x = − 1

So now our equation looks like this:

y − 3   =   2 ( −1 − 1 )

Now we will get rid of the parentheses:

y − 3    =   − 2 − 2

Solve the left side:

y − 3   =   − 4

Now add 3 on both sides to find out what y is:

y − 3   =   − 4

  +3         +3

Add:

y = − 1

Yay! We found our answer! Nice job everyone!

Write a proof for the biconditional using the inverse and contrapositive.
MariettaO [177]
I don’t really understand the question at hand but let me try to help

X is equal to 4 we know this because because the sign in between the number means greater than or equal to so 3 x 4 equals 12 and that makes the equation on right true and on the left x is also equal to for which also makes the statement on the right true as well so I think X = 4

I hope I was able to help and If not I’m sorry

Is 2.55 a irrational, rational, integer, whole number or natural number?
satela [25.4K]

So, the first thing we need to know is what is what.


So,  A natural number is a whole number

A whole number is an integer

and An integer is a rational number.


Now, since there is a terminating decimal (a decimal that does not go on forever) we know it is a rational number.


Since there is a decimal, it cannot be an integer, therefore

It is a rational number
