Answer:
512 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the parking lot at the Red Hill Shopping Center, the angle of sight (elevation) to the top of the hill is about 25. From the base of the hill you can also sight the top but at an angle of 55. The horizontal distance between sightings is 740 feet. How high is Red Hill? Show your subproblems.
Solution:
Let x be the distance from the base of the hill to the middle of the hill perpendicular to the height, let h be the height of the hill. Therefore:
tan 25 = h/(x + 740)
h = (x + 740)tan 25 (1)
tan 55 = h / x
h = x tan 55 (2)
Hence:
(x + 740)tan 25 = xtan 55
0.4663(x + 740) = 1.428x
0.4663x + 345.07 = 1.428x
0.9617x = 345.07
x = 359 ft.
h = xtan55 = 359 tan(55) = 512 ft.
Using the distributive property, an equivalent is

w is the width and it is the independent variable. You can pick any positive whole number you want (within reason of course; you can't go to infinity or go beyond some set boundary). Whatever you picked for w, the expression 2w-5 will be dependent on it. So the length is dependent on the width.
For instance, if the width is w = 10 feet, then 2w-5 = 2*10-5 = 20-5 = 15 feet is the length. The choice of 10 feet for the width directly affects the length being 15 feet.

Gross salary per month = $10500
Gross salary per annum
= Gross salary per month × 12
= $10500 × 12
= $126000
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x make sure to get it on one side
First subtract 3x from each side. This makes the equation now
3x + 2 = -8 + 25
Now see what 25 subtract by 8 is (17)
3x + 2 = 17
Next subtract 2 from both sides
3x = 15
Lastly, divide 15 by 3, making x equal 5
x = 5
