Answer:

891.77 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

since it is not stated, i'm going to assume that 1200 feet is the actual distance the plane travels along the 48° elevation. (i.e its the hypotenuse)

(see attached sketch)

we can see that the elements of the diagram form a right triangle, this means that we can use trigonometry to solve for the elevation x,

sin (48°) = x / 1,200

x = 1,200 sin (48°)

x = 891.77 feet

Solve equation for y 2x-y=3
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

So since we have to put it in y = mx + b form

Subtract 2x from both sides

-y = -2x + 3

Divide both sided by -1

y = 2x - 3

How do you solve (a-3b)(7a-3b)
Anna [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

(7a + 3b)(7a + -3b) = 0

Multiply (7a + 3b) * (7a + -3b)

(7a * (7a + -3b) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0

((7a * 7a + -3b * 7a) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0

Reorder the terms:

((-21ab + 49a2) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0

((-21ab + 49a2) + 3b * (7a + -3b)) = 0

(-21ab + 49a2 + (7a * 3b + -3b * 3b)) = 0

(-21ab + 49a2 + (21ab + -9b2)) = 0

Reorder the terms:

(-21ab + 21ab + 49a2 + -9b2) = 0

Combine like terms: -21ab + 21ab = 0

(0 + 49a2 + -9b2) = 0

(49a2 + -9b2) = 0

Solving

49a2 + -9b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '9b2' to each side of the equation.

49a2 + -9b2 + 9b2 = 0 + 9b2

Combine like terms: -9b2 + 9b2 = 0

49a2 + 0 = 0 + 9b2

49a2 = 0 + 9b2

Remove the zero:

49a2 = 9b2

Divide each side by '49'.

a2 = 0.1836734694b2  

Simplifying

a2 = 0.1836734694b2

take the square root of each side:

a = {-0.428571429b, 0.428571429b}

Use the figure to find measures of the numbered angles.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

1 = 137

2 = 43

3 = 43

4 = 137

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first line, do (180-137 = 43)

then, 43 would be corresponding angle to 2 - making them equal

2 would be vertically opposite to 3, making them equal

137 and 1 are corresponding- making them equal

4 is vertically opposite to 1 - making them equal
