This is a question of proportions:

First we can work out how many feet it goes up for each feet he steps back:

5.5/6 ft per each feet he steps back.

Now we can multiply this by the amount of ft back the cliff is:

(5.5/6)*30 = 27.5 ft

Thus the cliff is 27.5 ft tall,

Hope this helps :)

What is the solution to the system of equations represented by the two equations?
Iteru [2.4K]
If you would like to solve the following system of equations, you can do this like this:

y = - 2 * x + 7
y = 1/3 * x
____________
1/3 * x = - 2 * x + 7
1/3 * x + 2 * x = 7
1/3 * x + 6/3 * x = 7
7/3 * x = 7      /*3/7
x = 7 * 3 / 7
x = 3

y = 1/3 * x = 1/3 * 3 = 1

The correct result would be: x = 3 and y = 1.

Help show work please.

Answer:

X = 7/3y - 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Add - 7y to both sides = -3x + 7y = 10 - 7y

= -3x = 10 - 7y

Divide both sides by -3

-3x/-3 = 10/-3 - 7y/-3

x = 7/3y - 10/3

A spiral staircase turns $270^\circ$ as it rises 10 feet. The radius of the staircase is 3 feet. What is the number of feet in t
Anastaziya [24]

The number of feet in the length of the handrail is 17.3 ft.

The easiest way to see this is to imagine that we can "unfold" the spiral to create a rectangle

The bottom side of the rectangle is just the arc length of a circle with a radius of 3 ft  turned through 270°= (3/4) of a whole revolution

(3/4) (2pi) (3)  =  (9/2)pi ft =   4.5 pi ft

The side of the rectangle will be the rise of the staircase = 10ft

And the diagonal of the rectangle will be the length of the handrail

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this

Handrail length = √ [ (4.5 pi)^2 + 10^2 ]  ≈  17.3 ft

Pythagorean theorem is the well-known geometric theorem that the sum of the squares on the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse.
