-47 - 15y =-17.....Equation A

-x+ 5y=-13..........Equation B

Solve B for y.

-x + 5y = -13

5y = x - 13

y = (x - 13)/5

Plug y into A.

-47 -15y = -17

-47 -15(x - 13)/5 = -17

-47 -3(x - 13) = -17

-47 -3x + 39 = -17

-3x - 8 = -17

-3x = -17 + 8

-3x = -9

x = -9/-3

x = 3

Now that we know x is 3, plug 3 for x into EITHER Equation A or B (your choice) to find y.

I will let you do that.

CAN SOMEONE HELP AND EXPLAIN THIS TRIGONOMETRY PROBLEM

Tema [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Simply work with it.

As it is a Right angled triangle, taking angle 40° as a reference angle. Then,

Length of board = hypotenuse = 15 feet.

To find: height of ladder = perpendicular.

Now,

Taking sin ratio,

$\sin = \frac{p}{h}$

$sin \: 40 = \frac{p}{15}$

or, as in per the given sin value is 0.6428

so,

$0.6428 = \frac{p}{15}$

or, 15 × 0.6428 = p

or, p = height of ladder = 9.642.

Therefore, p = height of ladder = 10 feet. { rounding off we get 10 feet as answer}.

Hope it helps...
