Answer:
343.7 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The wire is anchored 190 -13 = 177 ft from the ground. That distance is opposite the given angle (31°). The measure you want is the hypotenuse of the triangle with that side and angle measures.
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that the relation between the opposite side, hypotenuse, and angle is ...
Sin(angle) = Opposite/Hypotenuse
Filling in the given information, you have ...
sin(31°) = (177 ft)/hypotenuse
Solving for hypotenuse gives
hypotenuse = (177 ft)/sin(31°) ≈ 343.7 ft
The length of the guy wire should be 343.7 ft.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To make the problem easier to solve, we will set it up as the equation of the length of time of each class times the number of classes equals the total amount of minutes. However, since we don't know the number of classes, we'll symbolize our two unknowns with two variables.
75x + 45y = 705
(75x + 45y)/15 = 705/15
5x + 3y = 47
y = (47-5x)/3
It looks like we can't simplify the equation any more, so now it is a matter of trial and error. The minimum number of Saturday classes means the maximum number of weekday classes. We first will test for the maximum by assuming there are no Saturday classes, then will work our way up until x is an integer.
If x = 0
(47-5(0))/3 = 47/3 = 15.6666
If x = 1
(47-5(1))/3 = 42/3 = 14
This works. Therefore, the maximum number of weekday classes is 14, or choice b.
