Answer:
a=61°
Step-by-step explanation:
a= 180° - 90° - 29°
a = 61°
The answer is 8/10 and that simplified is 4/5
Tan52° = x/29
The angle of elevation is 52°, so that must be inside the tan function.
Tan is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Jessica’s height is unknown, so we can call that x. The adjacent side of the triangle is the shadow, which is 29’m. Since tan is opposite over adjacent (remember SOH CAH TOA), the fraction must be x/29.
I am taking 7I+x to mean 71+ x.
Answer: y=1.837
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Let y is inversely proportional to 7I+x be mathematically be written as
y ∝ 1/7I+x
Introducing our proportionality of constant , K we have that
y ∝ 1/7I+x
y =K 1/7I+x
y= K/ 7I+xh
Step 2
so when x= 8, and y =2, k becomes
y= K/ 7I+x
k= y x (7I+x)
=2 x (71 + 8)
2x 79
=158
when x= 15, y =?
y= K/ 7I+x
y= 158/ 71 + 15
y=158/86
y=1.837
