yes sure, i learned this before so
1. a. make a proportion here, of percentage. if you cross multiply and divide you get 90%.
1. b. obviously the empty seats would be 10%.
2. a. proportion again, cross multiply then divide you ge 15%
3. 30% in decimal form is 0.3. multiply it then to the total amount, so 0.3 x 15 = 4.5
Answer:
695 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find the attachment.
Let x represent distance between ship and base of statue.
We have been given that the Statue of Liberty is approximately 305 feet tall. The angle of elevation of a ship to the top of the statue is 23.7 degrees. We are asked to find the distance between ship and base of statue.
We can see that angle of elevation forms a right triangle with base of statue and ship.
Now, we will use tangent to solve for x as:
Therefore, the ship is approximately 695 feet away from the base of statue.
