An ant on the ground is 22 feet from the foot of a tree. She looks up at a bird at the top of the tree, and her line of sight makes 30 degrees with the ground. How far is she from the top of the tree? (Hint: Find x.)
33.6 feet
Answer:
y = 2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to find the equation of a straight line
Step 1: find the slope
( 2 , 1) ( 5 , 7)
x_1 = 2
y_1 = 1
x_2 = 5
y_2 = 7
Insert the values into the equation
m = (y_2 - y_1 )/ (x_2 - x _1)
m = (7 - 1 )/ (5 - 2)
m = 6/3
= 2
Step 2: substitute m into the equation
y = mx + c
y = 2x + c
Step 3 : sub any of the two points given into the equation
Let's use ( 2, 1)
x = 2
y = 1
y = 2x + c.
1 = 2(2) + c
1 = 4 + c
c = 1 - 4
c = -3
Step 4: sub c into the equation
y = 2x + c
y = 2x - 3
Answer:
93 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles in a triangle add to be 180 so
180-56-31=x
x=93
(11*5)+(4*10)=95
11+4=15
Both are equal to the constraints of the word problem and there for justified.
From the given statement, we know the following...
0.35x = $247 where x = the orginial number
So if we solve for x by dividing by 0.35
x = $247/0.35 = $705.71
