Firstly , we can draw diagram

we can see that

adjacent = 850

opposite =250

so, we can use tan formula

tan(x)=\frac{250}{850}

x=tan^{-1}(\frac{250}{850})

16.38

x=16.38

so,

angle of depression is 16.38 degree........Answer

Help me plssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: See explanation (btw, the answer is always in bold letters)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) 1 gallon for $1.99

1/2 gallon for $0.98

1 gallon would be 0.98 × 2 = <em>1.96</em>

2 gallons for $3.98

1 gallon would be 3.98 ÷ 2 = 1.99

2.) 621 ÷ 4 = 155.25

He pays $155.25 each payment!

3.) V = s³

s = 3

V = 3³

3 × 3 × 3 = 27

V = 27 m³

4.) This is a rectangle; the area of a rectangle is l × b.

L = 6.9

l × b = a

6.9b = 28.29

Divide both sides by 6.9

b = 4.1

The missing length is 4.1 m

5.) False

The video club to which Lin belongs allows her to receive one free DVD for every three DVDS she rents. If she pays $3 for each D
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

On every 3 DVDs she rents, 1 DVD is received for free

Rent of each DVD = $3

Total amount paid = $114

Now,

The total number of DVDs she took on rent = \frac{\textup{Total amount paid}}{\textup{Rent of each DVD}}

or

The total number of DVDs she took on rent = \frac{\textup{114}}{\textup{3}}

or

The total number of DVDs she took on rent = 38

also,

For every 3 DVDs she gets 1 Free DVD

thus,

For every 1 DVD she gets \frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{3}} free DVD

therefore,

For  38 DVD she gets \frac{\textup{38}}{\textup{3}} free DVD

or

she gets 12.67 DVDs free

Since,

the DVDs cannot be given in fraction

Hence she will get 12 free DVDs
