Answer:

\frac{h}{sin(32)} =\frac{16}{sin(70)}

Step-by-step explanation:

A flagpole at a right angle to the horizontal is located on a slope that makes an angle of 12 degree. The flagpole shadow is 16 meters long and points directly up the slope.

The diagram for the given problem is attached below

We need to find the height of flagpole h

Apply sine law

\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}

\frac{h}{sin(32)} =\frac{16}{sin(70)}

Required equation is

\frac{h}{sin(32)} =\frac{16}{sin(70)}

Is 3/10 greater than 5/10
storchak [24]

3 of anything is almost always less than 5 of the same thing.
That's true for cows, rocks, trees, fish, salt-shakers, and babies.
I can't think of any object where it wouldn't be true.
Why wouldn't it be true for tenths ?

Let me say it another way:

No.  3/10  is <em>less than</em>  5/10 .

Mrs Smith is completing a mathematics problem. She knows when 6 is added to four times a number, the result is 50. What would be
Lesechka [4]

EXPLANATION:

-To formulate an equation, you must first know what data the exercise gives us to locate them correctly.

data:

-6 that must be added to a number.

-four times a number that is equal to 4x

-a result that is equal to 50

Now with these data we formulate the equation:

\begin{gathered} \text{Equation:} \\ 6+4x=50;\text{  } \end{gathered}

if we solve the equation we have:

\begin{gathered} 6\text{ }+4x=50 \\ 4x=50-6 \\ 4x=44 \\ x=\frac{44}{4} \\ x=-\frac{22}{2} \\ x=\text{ }-11 \end{gathered}
