From the side view, a gymnastics mat forms a right triangle with other angles measuring 60° and 30°. The gymnastics mat extends

valkas [14]

Answer: The mat is 4.33 ft high off the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Angle of elevation with the first triangle = 30°

Angle of elevation with the second triangle = 60°

Length at which gymnastics mat extends across the floor = 5 feet

so, As shown in the figure:

We need to find the height of the mat off the ground.

If CD = 5 ft,

Let, AB = y, DC = x.

In Δ ABC,

$\tan 60^\circ=\frac{AB}{BC}\\\\\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{y}{x}\\\\x=\frac{y}{\sqrt{3}}$

Similarly, in Δ ACD,

$\tan 30^\circ=\frac{AB}{BD}\\\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{y}{x+5}\\\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{y}{\frac{y}{\sqrt{3}}+5}\\\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{y\sqrt{3}}{y+5\sqrt{3}}\\\\3y=y+5\sqrt{3}\\\\2y=5\sqrt{3}\\\\y=\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\y=4.33\ ft$

Hence, the mat is 4.33 ft high off the ground.

Jerome is a pharmacy technician that filled a prescription that use 1/4 bottle of ibuprofen. How many pills did jerome use for t

Neporo4naja [7]

It is clearly mentioned in the question that each bottle of ibuprofen has 1000 pills.

Now, 1/4 bottle of ibuprofen is used to make the prescription.

So, if one bottle of ibuprofen has 1000 pills and 1/4 1/4 bottle of ibuprofen is used to make the prescription, then Jerome obviously used $\frac{1000}{4}=250$ pills of ibuprofen to make the prescription.
