Tan 21 44 =  h / 13428.7
h = 13428.7 * tan 21 44

Height =   5353 feet

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The arrangement is given in the below figure.

We have height of the mountain = x

We also have

       tan(21^044')=\frac{x}{13428.7}\\x=5352.98ft

Height of the mountain to the nearest foot = 5353 ft

Option B is the correct answer.

The amounts of household waste generated in a region during two years were 23,400,000 tons and 48,100,000 tons. What was the tot
trasher [3.6K]

The first step to do is to calculate first the total household waste generate for the two years. That is:

total waste generated = 23,400,000 tons + 48,100,000 tons

total waste generated = 71,500,000 tons

 

Now, to write either a very big number or a very small number in a form of scientific notation simply means to write it in a decimal form such as: 12.5 * 10^10

 

Now to write 71,500,000 in scientific notation, the decimal form is 7.15, however we still need to find out the * 10^n factor. The value of n depends on the number of places the decimal point was moved. If the movement was from right to left, the value of n is positive and if the movement was from right to left, the value of n is negative. Since the decimal point was moved by 7 places, hence the complete scientific notation is:

 

7.15 * 10^7 tons

Leah knit a scarf that is 130 centimeters long, Theo knit a scarf that is 4/3 as long
Delvig [45]

Answer: Theo's scarf is  173 + 1/3 centimeters long.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scarf of Leah is 130 centimeters long.

The one of Theo is 4/3 as long as the one of Leah, then we have that the length of the scarf of Theo is:

Lenght = (4/3)*130 cm =(4*130)/3 cm =520/3 cm  

Now, we know that if all the digits of a number add up to a multiple of 3, that number is divisible by 3.

520/3 = (519 + 1)/3 = 519/3 + 1/3 = 173 + 1/3

Theo's scarf is  173 + 1/3 centimeters long.
