Interesting problem ...
The key is to realize that the wires have some distance to the ground, that does not change.
The pole does change. But the vertical height of the pole plus the distance from the pole to the wires is the distance ground to the wires all the time. In other words, for any angle one has:
D = L * sin(alpha) + d, where D is the distance wires-ground, L is the length of the pole, alpha is the angle, and 'd' is the distance from the top of the (inclined) pole to the wires:
L*sin(40) + 8 = L*sin(60) + 2, so one can get the length of the pole:
L = (8-2)/(sin(60) - sin(40)) = 6/0.2232 = 26.88 ft (be careful to have the calculator in degrees not rad)
So the pole is 26.88 ft long!
If the wires are higher than 26.88 ft, no problem. if they are below, the concerns are justified and it won't pass!
Your statement does not mention the distance between the wires and the ground. Do you have it?
First, you should calculate the square footage of the fence.6ft∗300ft=1800ft2 Then to find the number of gallons of paint needed, divide the area of the fence by the area covered with each gallon of paint: 1800ft2÷400ft2=4.5 So, 4.5 gallons of paint, or rounding up, 5.
Answer:
12a + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
given 3(4a + 2)
multiply each term in the parenthesis by the 3 outside ( distributive law )
= (3 × 4a ) + (3 × 2 ) = 12a + 6
As a practical equation, this one doesn't make much sense -- why would the profit per person have a term proportional to the number of people? Let's just go with it.
That's the answer to the first part.
35/x represents a portion of the profit that's 35/x per person, or a constant $35 per tour.
