d C, as shown below:
A source of laser light is at point A on the ground between two parallel walls. The walls are perpendicular to the ground. AB is a ray of light which strikes the wall on the left at point B. The length of AB is 40m. AC is a ray of light which strikes the wall on the right at point C which is 80 m above the ground. The ray AB makes an angle of 60 degrees with the ground. The ray AC makes an angle of 45 degrees with the ground.

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

6 1/2 = 6  + 1/2 *3/3 = 6 + 3/6

4 5/6

 6 3/6

-4  5/6

-----------------

We need to borrow from the 6

6 3/6 = 5 + 6/6 + 3/6 = 5 9/6

5 9/6

-4 5/6

--------------------

1  4/6

We can simplify 4/6 to 2/3

Solution: 1 2/3

an ostrich egg weighs 2.9 pounds.The difference between the weight of this egg and the weight of an emu egg is 1.6 pounds.write
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

2.9-w=1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be weight of emu egg in pounds.

We have been given that an ostrich egg weighs 2.9 pounds.The difference between the weight of this egg and the weight of an emu egg is 1.6 pounds.

We can represent this information as:

2.9-w=1.6

Therefore, the equation 2.9-w=1.6 will give us the weight of the emu egg, w, in pounds.

Find the y intercept​
erica [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of line ST = Slope of line PQ = -3.

y = -3x + c

When x = 3, y = -1

=> (-1) = -3(3) + c, c = 8

Therefore the equation of line ST is y = -3x + 8 and the y-intercept is 8.

find the volume of the following figure round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary and make sure to use pi
Vikki [24]

Answer:

524cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for Volume of sphere= 4/3 πr^2

We have,

r=5cm

Now,

Volume(v)=4/3 πr^2 = 4/3π 5^3= 4/3π 125 = 166.666666667π = 523.598775599

Rounding to the nearest tenth,

Volume=524cm^2
