Artist 52 [7]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

                                2x - 12 = x + 5

1.- Subtract x in both sides

                                 2x - x - 12 = x - x + 5

2.- Simplify

                                 x - 12 = 5      Now, there is only one x on the left

3.- Add 12 in both sides

                                x - 12 + 12 = 5 + 12

4.- Simplify and result

                                x = 17

What is the length of the shadow cast by a 12-foot lamp post when the angle of elevation of the sun is 60º? (to the nearest tent
elena-s [515]

Answer:

6.9 foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of lamp post= 12-foot.

           The angle of elevation of the sun is 60°.

∴ The length of Lamp post, which is opposite is 12-foot.

  Now, finding the length of shadow cast by foot lamp.

Length of shadow is adjacent.

∴ We know the formula for Tan\theta= \frac{Opposite}{adjacent}

Next, putting the value in the formula.

⇒ Tan 60° = \frac{12}{adjacent}

Cross multiplying both side and using the value of Tan 60°

∴ Adjacent= \frac{12}{\sqrt{3} } = 6.92 ≅ 6.9 (nearest tenth value)

6.9 is the length of shadow cast by a 12-foot lamp post.
