Answer:
D. 914 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the distance that a person can see on a clear day from the upper observation platform of the Eiffel tower in Paris. We are then required to estimate the height of the upper observation platform using the formula;
Where d is the distance and h the height of the upper observation platform. The first step would be to solve for h, that is make h the subject of the formula in the above equation;
We multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/6 which is 6/5;
The next step is to eliminate the square root on the Left Hand Side of the equation by squaring both sides;
Given d is 25.2, h becomes;
To the nearest whole number, h becomes 914
Divide the first equation by 2 and add the result to the second equation. This will eliminate x.
... (-4x -2y)/2 + (2x +4y) = (-12)/2 +(-12)
... 3y = -18 . . . . . collect terms
... y = -6 . . . . . . . divide by 3
Substitute this into either equation to find x. Let's use the second equation, where the coefficient of x is positive.
... 2x +4(-6) = -12
... 2x = 12 . . . . . . . . add 24
... x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
The solution is (x, y) = (6, -6).
Answer:
14.4 m / s
Step-by-step explanation:
=distance between the car
=0.8 × 9
=7.2m
=time taken
=0.5s
=speed
=distance/time
=7.2m/0.5s
=14.4 m / s
119 * .09 = 10.71
119+10.71= 129.71
129.71 * .22 = 28.54
129.71+28.54= 158.25
the answer closest to this is $156, so that is your answer.
