We use the trigonometric function for this case. An escalator is an inclined path. We form a right triangle since we have given the value of the height. The height from the first floor to second floor is called the adjacent while the travelled distance of the people is called the hypothenuse. We use cosine function because we are given in terms of adjacent and hypothenuse. The ratio of cosine function is
cos x = a/h
where x is the angle
Solving for h,
h = a/(cos x) = 21/(cos 30) = 24.25 ft
The orange one is an example of alternate interior angles.
If 5 bags of pretzels cost $10, then the pretzels are $2 per bag.
Answer:
-2n - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms. Note that each term has one variable (n). Also note that one negative sign and one positive sign results in a negative sign.
-6n + (-12) + 4n = -6n + 4n - 12 = -2n - 12
-2n - 12 is your answer

Answer: 0.001 or 1/1000
Since it is a negative exponent and -3 so it is in the thousandths, so 1/1000 or 0.001.
Have a good day! : )
