Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

${16}^{ \frac{1}{4} } \: can \: also \: be \: written \: as \: ( {{2}^{4})}^{ \frac{1}{4} }$

because ${2}^{4} = 16$

So,

${( {2}^{4} )}^{ \frac{1}{4} } = {(2)}^{4 \times \frac{1}{4} } = 2$

the parallel line is 2x+5y+15=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

ok I hope it will work

soo,

Solution

given,

given parallel line 2x+5y=15

which goes through the point (-10,1)

now,

let 2x+5y=15 be equation no.1

then the line which is parallel to the equation 1st

2 x+5y+k = 0 let it be equation no.2

now the equation no.2 passes through the point (-10,1)

or, 2x+5y+k =0

or, 2*-10+5*1+k= 0

or, -20+5+k= 0

or, -15+k= 0

or, k= 15

putting the value of k in equation no.2 we get,

or, 2x+5y+k=0

or, 2x+5y+15=0

which is a required line.

The angle of elevation from me to the top of a hill is 51 degrees. The angle of elevation from me to the top of a tree is 57 deg

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Approximately $101\; \rm ft$ (assuming that the height of the base of the hill is the same as that of the observer.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the diagram attached.

Let $\rm O$ denote the observer.
Let $\rm A$ denote the top of the tree.
Let $\rm R$ denote the base of the tree.
Let $\rm B$ denote the point where line $\rm AR$ (a vertical line) and the horizontal line going through $\rm O$ meets. $\angle \rm B\hat{A}R = 90^\circ$ .

Angles:

Angle of elevation of the base of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
Angle of elevation of the top of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

Let the length of segment $\rm BR$ (vertical distance between the base of the tree and the base of the hill) be $x\; \rm ft$ .

The question is asking for the length of segment $\rm AB$ . Notice that the length of this segment is $\mathrm{AB} = (x + 20)\; \rm ft$ .

The length of segment $\rm OB$ could be represented in two ways:

In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

For example, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ , the length of the side opposite to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ is segment $\rm BR$ . The length of that segment is $x\; \rm ft$ .

$\begin{aligned}\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)} = \frac{\,\rm {BR}\,}{\,\rm {OB}\,} \; \genfrac{}{}{0em}{}{\leftarrow \text{opposite}}{\leftarrow \text{adjacent}}\end{aligned}$ .

Rearrange to find an expression for the length of $\rm OB$ (in $\rm ft$ ) in terms of $x$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{BR}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x}{\tan\left(51^\circ\right)}\approx 0.810\, x\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}A}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x + 20}{\tan\left(57^\circ\right)}\approx 0.649\, (x + 20)\end{aligned}$ .

Equate the right-hand side of these two equations:

$0.810\, x \approx 0.649\, (x + 20)$ .

Solve for $x$ :

$x \approx 81\; \rm ft$ .

Hence, the height of the top of this tree relative to the base of the hill would be $(x + 20)\; {\rm ft}\approx 101\; \rm ft$ .

How to solve 9 * 4 - 8 / 2 *4

egoroff_w [7]

Answer: the answer is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Use order of operations and divide 8 by 2 and you get 4. Then use the PEMDAS (parentheses,exponents,multiplacation,division,addition, subtraction) method. Go left to right. And solve. :) I hope this helps
