A golfer needs to know how tall a tree is to chip a ball over the tree onto the green in a golf match. his caddie knows that he

is 10 feet from the tree and has an angle of elevation of 52°. what is the height of the tree to the nearest whole number?

The height of the trre will be given by:
tan θ=(opposite)/(adjacent)

θ=52°
Adjacent= distance of the golfer to the tree= 10 ft
opposite = height, h, of the tree
thus
tan 52=h/10
hence solving for h we get:
h=10tan52
h=12.799~12.8 ft

6= 4(z+9)/y+2
6y +12 =4(z+9)
6y=4(z+9) -12
y=(4(z+9)-12)/6
y=2z+18-6/3
y=2z+12 /3

Two perpendicular lines intersect at the origin. If the slope of the first line is .5, what is the equation of the second line?.
Sedaia [141]
The origin is at the point (0,0). Therefore, the y-intercept will be 0. For two points to be perpendicular, the slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other. .5 can be seen as 1/2, so the reciprocal is 2, and it is positive, making that 2 negative. Your equation would be y = -2x.

Determine which of the following situations requires the distributive property in order to simplify the expression. Select all s
ipn [44]

Answers

9(x + y)

(7 - a)(b)

 

The Distributive Property is used in algebraic expressions to multiply a single term and two or more terms which are inside a set of parentheses.

 

In the case of x(2y), there is only one term inside the parenthesis

In the case of 9(x ∙ y), the distributive property is not used because (x ∙ y) = xy which means only one term will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (9)

 

In the case of 9(x + y), the distributive property is used because the two terms in the parenthesis (x and y) will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (9)

9(x + y) = 9*x + 9*y (by applying the distributive property)

 

In the case of (7 ∙ a)(b), the distributive property is not used because (7 ∙ a) = 7a which means only one term will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (b)

 

In the case of (7 - a)(b), the distributive property is used because the two terms in the parenthesis (7 and -a) will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (b)

(7 - a)(b) = 7*b - a*b (by applying the distributive property)

 

In the case of (2 ∙ x) ∙ y, the distributive property is not used because (2 ∙ x) = 2x which means only one term will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (y)

PLEASE HELP ive been stuck on this for a long time
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle.

a2 + b2 = c2

The square root of 15 = 3.8729.... (a bunch of other numbers)

4^2 + 3.8729^2 = c2

16 + 15 = 31

Now that you have this, you need to find the square root

The square root of 31 = 5.56775436

Rounding this to the tenth it would be: 5.57

Final answer: C = 5.57

hope this helps! :)
