What is the center of the data number of laps around a track?

Two buildings are facing each other on a road of width 12 metre . From the top of the first building, which is 10 metre high , t

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

$\displaystyle 10 + 12\sqrt{3}$ metres

Step-by-step explanation:

You are finding the height of the building with an angle of elevation, therefore we need to solve for EC to add it to BA [10 metres] and use TRIGONOMETRIC RATIOS to arrive at our conclusion. Just in case you have forgotten what they were, here they are:

$\displaystyle \frac{OPPOSITE}{HYPOTENUSE} = sin\:θ \\ \frac{ADJACENT}{HYPOTENUSE} = cos\:θ \\ \frac{OPPOSITE}{ADJACENT} = tan\:θ \\ \frac{HYPOTENUSE}{ADJACENT} = sec\:θ \\ \frac{HYPOTENUSE}{OPPOSITE} = csc\:θ \\ \frac{ADJACENT}{OPPOSITE} = cot\:θ$

We can now solve for EC:

$\displaystyle cot\:60 = \frac{12}{EC} → ECcot\:60 = 12 \\ \\ \frac{ECcot\:60}{cot\:60} = \frac{12}{cot\:60} → 12\sqrt{3} = EC$

OR

$\displaystyle tan\:60 = \frac{EC}{12} → 12tan\:60 = EC → 12\sqrt{3} = EC$

Now that you have solved for EC, you can now add it to your original 10 metres to get $\displaystyle 10 + 12\sqrt{3}$ metres. As a decimal, you would get $\displaystyle 30,78460969...$ metres. You can go ahead and round this off if necessary.

** The reason why the cotangent [or tangent] ratio was used was because EA is equivalent to DB by the definition of a rectangle. It has two pairs of parallel and congruent sides with four right angles. Plus, that is the adjacent side of the triangle, while EC is the opposite side of the triangle, so we knew our ratios were correct.

I am joyous to assist you at any time.

Can someone make this into a compound inequality?

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

67-92

Step-by-step explanation:

so you will average them out first

71+76+80+81 which would be 77 average

then u can use process of elimination to find out what to do by trying different scores.

What is six over eight plus four over eight

solniwko [45]

Answer: 5/4

Explanation:
We have the same denominator so we can just add the numerator.

= 6/8 + 4/8
=10/8
10/8 can be simplified
=5/4

How do you find the percent of a number?

Tom [10]

Answer:

(hope this helps can i plz have brainlist :D hehe)

Step-by-step explanation:

How to Calculate Percentages

There are many formulas for percentage problems. You can think of the most basic as X/Y = P x 100. The formulas below are all mathematical variations of this formula.

Let's explore the three basic percentage problems. X and Y are numbers and P is the percentage:

Find P percent of X

Find what percent of X is Y

Find X if P percent of it is Y

Read on to learn more about how to figure percentages.

1. How to calculate percentage of a number. Use the percentage formula: P% * X = Y

Example: What is 10% of 150?

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y

P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y

Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10

Substitute 0.10 for 10% in the equation: 10% * 150 = Y becomes 0.10 * 150 = Y

Do the math: 0.10 * 150 = 15

Y = 15

So 10% of 150 is 15

Double check your answer with the original question: What is 10% of 150? Multiply 0.10 * 150 = 15

2. How to find what percent of X is Y. Use the percentage formula: Y/X = P%

Example: What percent of 60 is 12?

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/X = P%

X is 60, Y is 12, so the equation is 12/60 = P%

Do the math: 12/60 = 0.20

Important! The result will always be in decimal form, not percentage form. You need to multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage.

Converting 0.20 to a percent: 0.20 * 100 = 20%

So 20% of 60 is 12.

Double check your answer with the original question: What percent of 60 is 12? 12/60 = 0.20, and multiplying by 100 to get percentage, 0.20 * 100 = 20%

3. How to find X if P percent of it is Y. Use the percentage formula Y/P% = X

Example: 25 is 20% of what number?

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/P% = X

Y is 25, P% is 20, so the equation is 25/20% = X

Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.

Converting 20% to a decimal: 20/100 = 0.20

Substitute 0.20 for 20% in the equation: 25/0.20 = X

Do the math: 25/0.20 = X

X = 125

So 25 is 20% of 125

Double check your answer with the original question: 25 is 20% of what number? 25/0.20 = 125

Remember: How to convert a percentage to a decimal

Remove the percentage sign and divide by 100

15.6% = 15.6/100 = 0.156

Remember: How to convert a decimal to a percentage

Multiply by 100 and add a percentage sign

0.876 = 0.876 * 100 = 87.6%

If 2g - 4 = 6, then g =

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Then g = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The only number that fits in g is 5.

2*5 - 4 = 6

So 2 x 5 = 10.

Which the equation is now 10 - 4 = 6.

So the answer is 5.
