Answer:

64.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

angle of elevation is the angle from the point where the shadow ends. this create a right angle triangle. using tan, you can find the angle.

tan theta = opposite/adjacent

angle = tan^-1(42/20)

angle = 64.5°

Find the measure of CDE. The measure of CDE equals a certain # of degrees.
vredina [299]

2x-13+3x-8+2x-3+2x-7+3x-1+2x+11+2x+9= (7-2)×180

16x-12=(7-2)×180

(7-2)×180 Work this out on a calculator

And then that answer=16x-12

Then you solve by adding 12 both sides and dividing by 16 both sides to get what x is.

First one:
3x+5<23
3x<18 (subtract 5 from both sides)
x<6
So A: less than 6 cars

Second one:
3(x-4)+5(2x+1)
3x-12+10x+5 (distribute)
So the answer is C

A ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 22 meters per second.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

27.4 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Um, your question is missing the x's. I'm going to assume, -4.9x^2+22x+5.5

= -4.9(3)^2+22(3)+5.5

= 27.4

At 3 seconds the ball is 27.4 metres above the ground.
