Step-by-step explanation:
1. if the number of pages in the 1st day is 'x', then the 2d day - 'x+10', the 3d day - 'x+20', the 4th day - 'x+30', the 5th day - 'x+40' and the last day - 'x+50' pages;
2. if the sum of all the pages is 300, then it is possible to make up the equation:
x+x+10+x+20+x+30+x+40+x+50=300;
3. x=25, it means:
1st day - 25;
2d day - 35;
3d day - 45;
4th day - 55;
5th day - 65;
6th day - 75 pages.
2.5 hours i think but i might be wrong :)
Answer:
1.3
Friend is wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
friend's claim: height of his building is more than 1.50 times the height of yours
line of sight to the top edge of the other building makes an angle of 21° above the horizontal
line of sight to the base of the other building makes an angle of 52° below the horizontal
Solution:
Let A be the height of your building is A
Let B+A his building is B higher than yours.
Let the distance between the buildings is x.
then
tan 52 = A/x
tan 21 = B/x
A/B = tan 52 / tan 21
= 1.27994 / 0.38386
A/B = 3.33
(A + B) / A = 1.5
0
A/A + B/A = 1.50
1 + B/A = 1.50
B/A is basically (B/x) / (A/x)
So
1+ 3.33 / 3.33
= 4.33/3.33
= 1.3
Since 1.3 is not equal to 1.5
Hence the friend's claim is wrong.
The area of a rectangle is length times width or base times height
so 5 times 2x-3
if you multiply them together 5(2x-3) you would get 10x-15
there is no value of x
so the area would be 10x-15ft^2
