Answer:

D. 53.2 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the diagram, Farimah, Helio, and the kite are making a triangle. We know from our problem that the distance from Farimah to Helio is 15 ft, the distance from Farimah to the kite is 57 ft, and the angle of elevation from Farimah to the kite is 68°. From this situation, we can infer that we have two sides of the triangle and the angle between those sides; therefore, we can use the law of cosines to find the third side, which is the distance form Helio to the kite:

c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos(C)

c^2=57^2+15^2-2(57)(15)cos(68)

c=\sqrt{57^2+15^2-2(57)(15)cos(68)}

c=53.2

We can conclude that Helio is 53.2 ft from the kite.

Which system of equation is represented​
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let us figure out what is graphed and then manipulate each answer to try to match it.

The one with a positive slope is

y\leq x-2

The one with the negative slope is

y\geq 3-2x

Now that we have our graphed system of inequalities, we can try to match them to an answer.

A. while the x-2 is the same, the other does not have an x, so it cannot match.

B. The second inequality has the wrong sign, so it is impossible for this to be our answer.

C. When each of these are solved for y, you get y\leq 2x-3\\\\y\leq 2-x. Neither of these match so this cannot be correct.

D. When the first inequality is solved you get y\geq 3-2x

When the second inequality is solved you get y\leq x-2

As both of these answers match our graphed inequalities, D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the fractions as 2/9 times 45/1.

2. Cross cancel 45 and 9 by dividing by 5, which now gives you 2/1 and 5/1.

3. Multiply 2/1 and 5/1 and you get 10.
