Answer:

  Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Both methods will work. You can add or subtract any number you wish from both numbers and the result will be the same.

___

<em>Comment on the approach</em>

By adding 5, Carmine makes the subtrahend have a units digit of 0, making the units digit of the answer easier to find.

By adding 2 to both numbers, Karen makes the minuend have a units digit of 0, so the units digit of the answer will be the 10's complement of 7. Depending on Karen's knowledge of arithmetic facts, this may be more work for her than Carmine's method is for Carmine.

Since all digits of the subtrahend are less than or equal to all digits of the minuend, no adjustment is needed and the subtraction can proceed directly.

Kim is watching a space shuttle launch from an observation spot 2 miles away. Find the angle of elevation from Kim to the space
hammer [34]

Answer:

<h2><em>46.4°</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagrammatic representation in the attachment given.

We can see that the diagram is a right angled triangle. To get the angle of elevation, we will use one of the trigonometry identity SOH, CAH, TOA.

Given the adjacent of the triangle to be 2miles (observation spot from the point of launch)and the opposite (side facing the elevation angle) as 2.1miles (the height), we will use TOA.

tan∅ = opposite/adjacent

tan∅ = 2.1/2

tan∅  = 1.05

∅ = tan⁻¹1.05

∅ = 46.4°

<em>Hence the angle of elevation from Kim to the space shuttle, which is at a height of 2.1 miles is approximately 46.4°</em>

Two angles of a Triangle measure 55° and 22° What is the measure of the third angle of the triangle
IgorC [24]

Answer:

c would be the closest

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles equal 180*. so if you combine the 2 angles, which adds up to 77* then that would leave the third angle to be 103* but since that isnt an option choose c since its the closest.

Hello There!

The correct answer would be "B" this is because we are taking 6 and multiply it by our x column which is the "in" column and adding 1 to what we get.
