<h3>Answer:  293 feet</h3>

==========================================

Explanation:

See the attached image below. The information that the tower is 500 ft is never used. Focus solely on triangle ABD (ignore point C).

AB = 200

AD = x = unknown

angle ABD = angle B = 47 degrees

Use the cosine rule to help find x

---------

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(B) = AB/BD

cos(47) = 200/x

x*cos(47) = 200

x = 200/cos(47)

x = 293.255837127926

Rounding to the nearest foot, we get 293 feet as the answer.

CONSTRUCTION Carlos is building a screen door. The height of the door is I foot more than twice its width. What is the width of
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

<h2>width = 3 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h be the height of the door

and w be its width

The statement “The height of the door is I foot more than twice its width”

can be translated mathematically like this :  h = 2w + 1

Let’s solve the equation for w:

h = 2w + 1

⇔ 2w = h - 1

\Leftrightarrow w=\frac{h-1}{2}

now , if the door is 7 feet high then it’s width is equal to :

\Rightarrow \frac{7-1}{2} =\frac{6}{2} =3 \ ft

A widget company produces 25 widgets a day,5 of which are defective.Find the probability of selecting 5 widgets from the 25 prod
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

0.292

Step-by-step explanation:

Combinations can be used to solve the following problem.

We are choosing 5 widgets from 25 = ²⁵C₅

We want to select zero widgets from defective widgets = ⁵C₀

From the 20 non-defective widgets we want to select 5 = ²⁰C₅

So the probability is:

P = ( ⁵C₀ * ²⁰C₅) / ²⁰C₅

P = (1 * 15504) / 53130

= 15504/ 53130

=0.292 ..

Sean is getting balloons for his grandfather's birthday party. He wants each balloon string to be 9 feet long. At the party stor
atroni [7]

Answer:

198 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean wants the sting of each balloon to be 9 feet, and he wants to get a total of 66 balloons.

The total length of stings required for 66 balloons would be;

total length of balloon strings = 66 x 9 feet

                                                 = 594 feet

But the string is sold by the yard at the store.

So that,

1 yard = 36 inches = 3 feet

x yard = 594 feet

Thus,

x = \frac{594}{3}

  = 198 yards

x = 198 yards

Therefore, the total length of string that Sean would need is 198 yards.
