Line1: y = -x + 2
Line2: y = 2x - 1
Solution: (1,1)
Answer:
x-6 = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 8= -2
Add 8 to each side
3x - 8+8= -2+8
3x = 6
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 6/2
x =2
We want to find x-6
2-6 = -4
I believe it would be 12/18 so that would be 2/3 and 0.6 in decimal form
36 divided by 2 = 18 and 18 + 24 = 42
The correct answer is
the flagpole is <span>
33 feet high</span>.
Explanation:
Please refer to the attached picture.
We know:
CD = 40 feet
AC = 5 feet
∠BDC = α = 35°
Using trigonometry, we know that the definition of the tangent of an angle is the ratio between the opposite side and the adjacent side, therefore:
tan α = BC / CD
Solving for BC:
BC = CD · <span>tan α
= 40 </span>· tan (35)
= 28 feet
In order to find the height of the flagpole, we need to add the distance of the clinometer from the ground:
AB = BC + AC
= 28 + 5
= 33
Hence, the flagpole is
33 feet high.
