A person of height 1.6m up to the eye level is standing at a point 2m away from the bank of the river and found an angle of elev
natima [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

tan30° = Height of person / (Distance away from river bank + river's width) = 1/√3.

Therefore 1.6m / (2m + x) = 1/√3

By cross multiplication, 1.6√3 = 2 + x.

Hence, x ≈ 0.77m.

Can you pls solve 2 9 17 20 25​
Ganezh [65]

17 . Find the values of g(9) and h(-14) and add them together.

The function equations are given to find their values substitute 9 in g(x) and -14 in h(x)

20. They said f(x) = 2x + 9 and f(x) = 15 , which means they are equal to each other.

So write them as 2x + 9 = 15 , and solve the equation to find the value of x.

25. Here all you have to do is substitute 4 into the f(x) equation to find f(4)and you will have your answer.

Hope this helped!

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-2, 0) and is perpendicular to the line y=-1/3x+3
Virty [35]

Slope of y = -⅓x + 3 is -⅓ (on comparing with m of y = mx + c)

As the required line is perpendicular to this, slope of the required line = - 1 / (-⅓) = 3

Equation:

=> y - y1 = m(x - x1)

=> y - 0 = (3)(x - (-2))

=> y = 3(x + 2)

=> 3x - y + 6 = 0
