Answer:

h ≈ 30.10  ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Marie measures the angle of elevation from a point A to a tree as 34° . She works 10 ft directly towards the tree and discovered the new angle of elevation is 41°. The height of the tree can be computed below.

let

a = distance from point B to the tree

h = height of the tree

The right angle triangle formed from point B,  we can use tan to find the height of the tree.

tan 41°  = opposite /adjacent

tan 41° = h/a

cross multiply

h = a tan 41°

The right angle formed from point A

tan 34° = opposite/adjacent

tan 34° = h/(a + 10)

(a + 10)tan 34° = h

Therefore,

a tan 41° = (a + 10)tan 34°

0.8692867378

a =  0.6745085168(a + 10)

0.8692867378a = 0.6745085168a + 6.7450851684

collect like terms

0.8692867378a - 0.6745085168a = 6.7450851684

0.194778221a = 6.7450851684

a = 6.7450851684/0.194778221

a = 34. 629565532  ft

height of the tree can be find with

h = a tan 41°

h = 34. 629565532 × 0.8692867378

h =  30.103022053  ft

h = 30.10 ft

M+4+2-7m+6 I need to find how many’s terms are in it and what are the terms
madreJ [45]

Answer:

5 terms:  m, 4, 2, -7m, 6 are the terms in question.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that terms here are separated from one another by either + or - signs.

m + 4 consists of two terms, since m and 4 are separated by the + operator.

2 - 7m are separated by the - operator, and so there are two terms here.

Completing the counting procedure, we get:

m (first term) + 4 (second term) + 2 (third term -7m (fourth term) + 6 (fifth term).

So, if we do NOT combine like terms, we have five (5) terms altogether.

If we DO combine like terms, we end up with two (2) terms:

m -7m + 4 + 2 + 6, or -6m + 12, or two (2) terms.

The 1985 Mexico City earthquake measured a magnitude 8.0 on the Richter scale. The Richter scale uses the function M (I) = log (
Travka [436]

Answer:

The correct option is C: I = 10⁸I₀.   

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of the Richter scale is:

M_{(I)} = log(\frac{I}{I_{0}})

Since the magnitude of the earthquake is 8.0, the relation between the intensity, I, with the intensity of the threshold quake, Io, is:

8.0 = log(\frac{I}{I_{0}})

10^{8} = \frac{I}{I_{0}}

I = 10^{8}I_{0}

Therefore, the correct option is C: I = 10⁸I₀.                

I hope it helps you!
