Answer:

257 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

You know based upon soh that sin=opp/hyp

So drawing a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 400 ft and an angle of 40° with the ground, you can see that sin40=x/400

Multiply both sides to find your x value or height which is 257.

Lin ran 2 3/4 miles in 2/5 of an hour. Noah ran 8 2/3 miles in 4/3 of an hour.

(The second one)
Noah ran 8.67 miles in 1 hour and 20 minutes
If we convert the fraction to a decimal (for the miles part) we get 8.67 or 8 2/3 miles.

If 1/3 of an hour is 20 minutes, and an hour is 60 minutes, we add 20 4 times, which gets us to 80, which is 20 past an hour.
