Your rows would be $0.90 Chocolate, $1.20 Chocolate, and the Total Chocolate Mix, and your columns would be the Amount of Chocolate in #s and the Total Costs

(This is the best I can do coming up with a grid)

________________amt (#)_________total costs

$0.90_____________10______________9.00

$1.20______________x______________1.20x

 

Total Mix_________10+x_____________9+1.2x

Using this grid, you see that 10+x=9+1.2x so solve for x

10+x -x=9+1.2x -x

10=9+.2x

10 -9=9+.2x -9

1=.2x

1/.2=(.2x)/.2

x=5, so you need 5lbs of the $1.20 chocolate to produce a mixture worth $1.00

Dhaulagiri is the 7th highest mountain in the world. Ms. Fink is walking through
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

4833 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that her angle of elevation at the first recording is 47.3 at an altitude of 4900 m

We use Pythagoras Theorem to get this done

We can say that the opposite of the angle is the altitude, while the hypotenuse of the triangle, is the distance between herself and the top

Using the sine angle rule, we have

Sine 47.3 = 4900 / h

h = 4900 / sin 47.3

h = 4900 / 0.7349

h = 6668 m

This means that she was 6668 m away from the top of the mountain

She then moves 1000 m closer to the mountain top, this means that our h = 6668 - 1000

Using the same sine angle rule, we have

Sine 58.5 = o / 5668

o = 5668 * sine 58.5

o = 5668 * 0.8526

o = 4833 m

She is 4833 m above the sea level
