A vertical radio tower is 645 feet high above level ground. How far would you need to be from the base of the tower so that the

angle of elevation to the top of the tower would be 35.0°? (The “angle of elevation” is the angle measured from level ground up to the top of the tower.)

Answer:

921.165 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok we are looking for the length of the base.

Now let's take the question and picture it as a triangle, we will find out that it looks like a right angle triangle.

The height= 645 feet

Angle of elevation= 35°

Base is unknown

To find the base

We recall that tan of angle

= opposite/adjacent

In this case

Angle= 35°

Opposite= height= 645

Adjacent= base

Tan 35 = 645/adj

Adj =645/tan 35

Adj =645/0.7002

Adj = 921.165

The base is 921.165 feet

VMariaS [17]

The answer is 6$ because 50% of 40 would be 20 and 50% of 20 is 10 but when you all on the tax which would be around a dollar when you take 50% of 10 which is 5 and add on the tax which is a dollar you then get 6$ in total.

Every positive number has two square roots , a principal square root and its _____?
lukranit [14]
Definition: <span>The square root of a number is another number, which on multiplying with itself, will give the original number.
</span>
Every positive number has two square roots. One square root is positive, while the other is exactly same, but negative. The positive square root of a number is called its principle square root. For example, 10 and -10 are the two square roots of 100, but 10 is called the principle square root. 

Hence e<span>very positive number has two square roots , a principal square root and its opposite negative.</span>

I NEED THE ANSWER RIGHT NOW PLEASE!!!

Answer:

Second : 1/6 x + 47

Third : 1 2/3 x + 35 - 1 1/2 x + 12

Fourth : 5 (1/3x) + (5) (7) - (3) (1/2x) + (3) (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

I would start by expanding the expression, showing each step. Then, simplify by collecting like terms.

To expand, you multiply the term outside of the brackets by each term inside the brackets.

5(1/3x + 7) - 3(1/2x - 4)

= 5(1/3x) + (5)(7) - (3)(1/2x) + (3)(4)       Showing how to expand

= 5/3x + 35 - 3/2x + 12           Simplified above step by multiplying

= 5/3x - 3/2x + 47            Collected like terms (35 + 12 = 47)

= 10/6x - 9/6x + 47          Change fractions to the common denominator 6

= \frac{10-9}{6}x + 47   Combine fractions with common denominator

= 1/6x + 47              Fully expanded

See which options match the steps I took to expand the original expression.

The second step is the same as option 4.

The last step is the same as option 2.

I bolded those steps that are the same.

Some options use mixed fractions (whole numbers and fractions).

From the third step, I will convert the improper fractions to mixed fractions.

5/3x + 35 - 3/2x + 12

= 1 2/3x + 35 - 1 1/2x + 12

This is the same as option 3.

\frac{5}{3}x = 1\frac{2}{3}x    On the left side, 5 goes into 3 ONE time. The ONE becomes the whole number. After 5 goes into 3, there is 2 left, which becomes the numerator.

\frac{3}{2}x = 1\frac{1}{2}x   On the left side, 3 goes into 2 ONE time. The ONE becomes the whole number. The remainder is 1, which becomes the numerator.

Can somebody please help me with question b please?
snow_tiger [21]
\bf A=&#10;\begin{bmatrix}&#10;-2&0\\1&3&#10;\end{bmatrix}\qquad B=&#10;\begin{bmatrix}&#10;1&0&3\\-1&3&0&#10;\end{bmatrix}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;AB=&#10;\begin{bmatrix}&#10;(-2\cdot 1)+(0\cdot -1)&(-2\cdot 0)+(0\cdot 3)&(-2\cdot 3)+(0\cdot 0)\\\\&#10;(1\cdot 1)+(3\cdot -1)&(1\cdot 0)+(3\cdot 3)&(1\cdot 3)+(3\cdot 0)&#10;\end{bmatrix}

as you notice above, is the first-row components from A, multiplying all the columns subsequently on B, and you add the products of that row, that gives you one component on the AB matrix

in the one above, we end up with a 2x3 AB matrix
