A flagpole is at the top of a building. 300 feet from the base of the building, the angle of elevation of the top of the pole is
Grace [21]

Answer: We can use tangent here to find the length of the flagpole

First, find the length of the building + the flag pole

tan 32 = x/300

x=300tan32=187.460805573

(length of building + flagpole)

find length of building

tan 30 = x/300

x=173.205080757

subtract

187.460805573-173.205080757=14.255724816

round, length of flagpole = 14 feet

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Runner-up: $15,000

Winner: $75,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create an equation for this problem.

Let x=the amount the runner-up receives

Let 5x=the amount the winner receives

Then,

x+5x=90,000

6x=90,000

x=15,000

5x=75,000

The endpoints of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ are 8 and 16. Find the coordinate of the point P that partitions the segment in the ratio 3 : 1.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point P is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let point A is at 8 and B is at 16.

P is the point where the line segment in the ratio 3 : 1.

This is also where P is \frac{3}{4} rds the distance from A to B

The total distance is |16 - 8| = 8  

The distance between point AB is 8 units.

\frac{3}{4} of 8 is 6.

So, the point P is 6 units from A .

8 + 6 = 14

P is at 14

Hence, the coordinates of the point P is 14.

This also works if you go 1/3 from B.

-8 is 4 from -4 which is 1/3 of 12.
