Answer:

343.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The wire is anchored 190 -13 = 177 ft from the ground. That distance is opposite the given angle (31°). The measure you want is the hypotenuse of the triangle with that side and angle measures.

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that the relation between the opposite side, hypotenuse, and angle is ...

Sin(angle) = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Filling in the given information, you have ...

sin(31°) = (177 ft)/hypotenuse

Solving for hypotenuse gives

hypotenuse = (177 ft)/sin(31°) ≈ 343.7 ft

The length of the guy wire should be 343.7 ft.

How many solutions for x does the following equation have?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

c. 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+8) - 1 = 3x+4

3x+24-1 = 3x+4

3x+23 = 3x+4

There are no solutions since both equations have the same slope meaning they are parallel and they will never intersect since they have different y-intercepts.
