We know that

tan 32°=opposite side/adjacent side
[adjacent side]=[opposite side]/tan 32°

in this problem

opposite side-----> will be the altitude of the flock of birds minus your eye level above the ground
(12000-6)-----> 11994 ft

adjacent side------->will be the horizontal distance between you and the birds
32°------> <span>an angle of elevation
</span>
[adjacent side]=[11994]/tan 32°-------> 19194.41 ft

the answer is
<span>The horizontal distance from the birds is 19194.41 ft</span>

How to solve 105x2 +66x - 72 = 0 algebraically. Show work please
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Do pemdas, (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction). But do whatever is first, which in this case is multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation out.

    105 x 2 + 66x -72 = ?

    105 x 2 = 210

     210 + 66x - 72

    210 + 66x = 276x

     276x - 72 = 204

      ? = 204

What is an equatiom for the line with slope 2/3 and y-intercept 9​
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

y = (2/3)x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a straight line is y = mx + b. You are trying to finish the equation.

Note that:

m = slope = 2/3

b = y-intercept = 9

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

y = mx + b --> y = (2/3)x + 9

y = (2/3)x + 9 is your equation.

Anon25 [30]
Popcorn kernels in 1 lb bags.
4 ounces of kernels make two quartz of popped popcorn

Number of bag of kernels to fill ten gallons of popped popcorn.

1 pound = 16 ounces
16 ounces / 4 ounces = 4 
4 * 2 quarts = 8 quarts
8 quarts / 4 quarts per gallon = 2 gallons

1 pound bag of popcorn kernel produces 2 gallons worth of popped popcorn.

To make 10 gallons worth of popped popcorn, you need 5 1-pound bags of popcorn kernels.
