Answer:

5353 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We have height of the mountain = x

We also have

tan (21°44')= x/13428.7 → x=5352.98ft

Height of the mountain to the nearest foot = 5353 ft

Hope this helps ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

A fire department's ladder is 110 feet long. A firefighter is trying to reach the top of a 100 foot building by leaning the ladd
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

sin-¹(10/11)

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the building is 100 ft and the ladder is 110ft long .We can imagine this situation as a right angled ∆. For figure refer to the attachment .

  • We can use ratio sine here. Let the angle of elevation be theta.

<u>In </u><u>∆</u><u> </u><u>ABC </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

=> sinθ = p/h

=> sinθ = 100ft / 110 ft

=> sinθ = 10/11

=> θ = sin -¹ ( 10/11) .

<h3><u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>angle</u><u> of</u><u> elevation</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>sin </u><u>-</u><u>¹</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>/</u><u>1</u><u>1</u><u>)</u><u>. </u><u> </u></h3>

A sum of money amounting to $4.15 consists of dimes and quarters. If there are 28
anastassius [24]

Answer:

there are 9 quarters and 19 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of dimes and y the number of quarters

-dimes: 0.1x

-quarters: 0.25y

-the total amount of coins : x + y = 28  

=> x = 28 - y

We have the equation:

0.25y + 0.1x = 4.15

0.25y + 0.1(28 - y) = 4.15

0.25y + 2.8 - 0.1y = 4.15

0.15y = 1.35

y = 9

x = 28 - y

  = 28 - 9

  = 19
