To formulate the equation that shows the cost of 10 pounds of potatoes is 8 dollars we proceed as follows;
suppose the cost 1 pound is x;
thus,
total cost=(amount in pounds)*(price of one pound)
total cost=$8
amount=10 pounds
cost of one pound=x
thus the equation is;
8=10x

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST The angle of elevation from Ben to the top of a telephone pole is 62 degrees. If Ben is standing 8 feet fro

MrRissso [65]

Answer: The height of the telephone pole = $15.046

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Angle of elevation= 62 degrees.

Distance of Ben from the base of the pole = 8 feet

According to trigonometry, we have

$\tan x=\dfrac{\text{side opposite to x}}{\text{side adjacent to x}}$

i.e.

$\tan 62^{\circ}=\dfrac{\text{ height of the telephone pole}}{8}\\\\(1.880726)=\dfrac{\text{ height of the telephone pole}}{8}\\\\\text{ Height of the telephone pole} = 8\times 1.880726\approx15.046$

Hence, The height of the telephone pole = $15.046
