<span>D) 322.75 feet
use the trigonometric ratio Tangent to solve for this problem. 
Tan =  Tan(angle) = opposite side / adjacent side
we dont know height of pole so use x for opposite side.
plug in values
tan(67) = x/137
multiply both sides by 137
137*tan(67) = x 
plug into calculator to get 322.75</span>

The volume of a conical pile of sand is increasing at a rate of 300πcm3/sec
lesya [120]
So using the formula for the volume of a cone:
r^2pi x h/3

The height is always 4 times the radius, so:
h=4r

Now putting the values into the original formula:

r^2pi x 4r/3

Now to see how much the radius increases per second:

r^2pi x 4r/3=300pi

r^2 x 4r/3=300

r^2 x 4r=900

r^2 x r=225

r^3=225

The radius increases by the cubic square root of 225 cm per second.

f(s)= 225^1/3 cm

Explain how knowing that 5÷8 = 0 .625 helps you write the decimal for 4 5/8
Korolek [52]
<span>So lets see how does knowing that 5 divided by 8 = 0.625 helps us write the decimal for 4 5/8. First lets write 5 divided by 8 like a fraction: 5/8=0.625. Now we can see that 5/8 is in the number 4 5/8 so we can easily write it as: 4 + 0.625 = 4.625. So this is how it helps us. </span>
