A person standing d=145 centimeters from a mirror notices that the angle of depression from his eyes to the bottom of the mirror
Serggg [28]

The length of the mirror is 64.52 cm

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Distance of the person from the mirror = 145cm

Angle of depression = 14°

Angle of elevation = 11°

Vertical dimension of the mirror = ?

For angle of elevation:

tan(11) = \frac{AB}{BO}\\ \\0.195 = \frac{AB}{145} \\\\AB = 28.275 cm

For the angle of depression:

tan(14) = \frac{BC}{BO} \\\\0.25 = \frac{BC}{145} \\\\BC = 36.25 cm

Total length of the mirror, AC = AB + BC

                                              = 28.275 + 36.25cm

                                              = 64.52 cm

Therefore, the length of the mirror is 64.52 cm

Arada [10]

Answer: <u>C. 20-.40p</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that from the given information that each pound is worth 40 cents, and that its being subtracted from the twenty dollar bill.  

"Why are the others choices wrong?"

A. p-20, isn't the proper equation due to the stated information.

B. B. 20 -40p, this equation has Zelma pay $40 dollars each pound, which isn't correct due to what the text has stated ("for 40 cents per pound").

D. 40p-20, from the given text, this equation is wrong ("She pays the clerk with a twenty-dollar bill), it never states that she will be charged twenty dollars, or be given forty for each pound.

4x+20-2x-30

2x-30-20

2x=10

x=10/2

x=5

4(5)+y=30

20+y=30

y=30-20

y=10
