Answer:

(1)55.5 feet

(2)7.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question 1</u>

The diagram is attached below.

Using Trigonometric ratio

\tan 48^\circ = \dfrac{h}{50} \\h=50 \times \tan 48^\circ\\h=55.5$ feet (to the nearest tenth)

The height of the house is 55.5 feet to the nearest tenth.

<u>Question 2</u>

In the diagram, we are required to find the distance the bird must fly to be directly above the fish. This has been represented by x.

Using Trigonometric ratio

\tan 15^\circ = \dfrac{2}{x} \\x \tan 15^\circ=2\\x=2 \div \tan 15^\circ\\x=7.5 $ feet (to the nearest tenth)

The distance the bird must fly to be directly above the fish is 7.5 feet.

Rectangle area w algebra<br> step by step explanation please :)
Natalija [7]

We know that the area is 20.

Since 20 is a small number: lets list out possible combinations of lengths and widths.

1 * 20

2 * 10

4 * 5

L = 7 + 3w

lets see which on makes sense.

L = 7 + 3w

20 = w7 + 3w^2

3w^2 + 7w -20 = 0

(3w - 10)(w - 2)

w can equal 10/3 or 2.

So the dimensions: are Width = 2 Length = 10

Mitchell took a math exam today. If he got 63 out of 84 questions correct, what percentage did Mitchell get wrong? (answer using
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

75%


Step-by-step explanation:

If Mitchell took a math exam and got 63 out of 84 questions correct, that would turn into the fraction: 63/84

In order to convert this to a decimal, you divide 84 by 63 (since every fraction is a division problem), and get 0.75.

When you change decimals into percents, you move the decimal point two times to the right. So, that would be 75.

Then you add the percent symbol and you're done!

I hope that helped :)
