Answer:

700.39cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a horizontal distance of 30cm, the drop is 1cm, now we need to get the drop for horizontal distance of 700 cm to maintain the same slope

Using the concept of cross multiplication

30cm=1 cm drop

700 cm=x

30x=700

X=700/30=70/3=23 ⅓

Utilizing pythagoras theorem, the length of pipe will be

L=√(23⅓)²+700²

L=700.38878092417 cm

Rounded off, the length is approximately 700.39 cm

\bf x^{-1}-1\div x-1\implies \implies \cfrac{1}{x}-1\div x-1\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{x}-1}{~~x-1~~}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1-x}{x}~~}{\frac{x-1}{1}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{1-x}{x}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x-1}\implies \cfrac{-(\begin{matrix} x-1 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix})}{x}\cdot \cfrac{1}{\begin{matrix} x-1 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}}\implies -\cfrac{1}{x}\implies -x^{-1}

Can someone help me? And no, I don’t just want the answer. I literally need to know how to do it pls
elena-s [515]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle b is a right angle which is divided into 2. So, each angle would measure 45 degree. (90 / 2 = 45)

tan 45 = 1

\AD\ = 100 - 64 = 36

to find x , remember SOCAHTOA

tan would be used because we have the vale of the opposite angle and we want to find the value of the adjacent angle

Tan 45 = opposite / adjacent

1 = 36/x

x = 36
