Let the distance from the engineer to the base of the building be x, then
tan 22 = 450/x
x = 450/tan 22 = 1,113.79

Therefore the distance from the engineer to the base of the building to the nearest foot = 1,114 feet

Solve x2 – 4x – 9 = 29 for x.
Irina-Kira [14]
x^2 - 4x - 9 = 29 \\ x^2 - 4x - 9 - 29 = 0 \\ x^2 - 4x - 38 = 0 \\ x= \frac{-b \pm  \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} 
; where a = 1, b = -4 and c = -38
x= \frac{-(-4) \pm 
\sqrt{ 
(-4)^{2} -4 \times 1 \times -38} }{2 \times 1} \\ = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{ 16 +152} }{2} \\ =\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{ 168} }{2} \\ =\frac{4 \pm 
2\sqrt{42} }{2} \\ 
=2+\sqrt{42} \ or \ 2-\sqrt{42}\\=8.48 \ or \ -4.48

Find the compound interest compounded annually on rupees 2700 rate 6 ⅔% per annum and time is 2 years​
dalvyx [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

plz mark me as brainliest ...TOOK ME LONG TIME TO TYPE

answer = CI = 3108 RUPEES

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

i am doing the method in which u find the simple interest of first year then second year.

SI FOR 1ST YEAR= P X R X T / 100

SI = 2700 X 20 X 2 / 3 X 100   ( RATE OF INTEREST IS 20 / 3)

SI = 108000/300

SI = 360

SI FOR SECOND YEAR =

P = 2700 + 360= 3060

SI = 3060 X 20 X 2 / 300

SI= 122400 / 300

SI = 408

COMPOUND INTEREST (CI) = PRINCIPLE + SI OF 2ND YEAR

CI = 2700 + 408

CI = 3108 RUPEES

or u can solve be the method

CI = amount - principle

Amount= principle x (change in ratio) raised to time
