Distance of the person from the building (x)
tan 24 = 20/x => x = 20/tan 24 = 44.92 ft
The height of the building above the height of the person and the distance of the person from the building forms two legs of right angled triangle.
Therefore, if h is the height of the building, then;
tan 31 = (h-20)/44.92
h-20 = 44.92 tan 31
h = (44.92 tan 31) + 20 = 26.99 + 20 = 46.99 ft
2. The number of adults who live in the house is <em>3</em><em> </em>(1,200/400).
3.a. If an adult recycled the <em>glass, paper, and card</em> that have 42% of the rubbish, the adult will generate 232 kg (400 kg x (1 - 42%) of rubbish.
b. If the adult, in addition, had a <em>composite for vegetable and decomposable material</em>, he will generate 152 kg (400 kg x (1 - 62%).
Data and Calculations:
1 ton = 1,000 kg
Weight of rubbish produced by an adult per year = 400 kg
Total kg of rubbish produced by the family = 1,200 kg (1,000 x 1.2)
Percentage of Vegetable and decomposable material = 20%
Percentage of glass, paper, and card = 42% (33% + 9%)

Answer:
x > -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for x by dividing -3 to both side leaving x by itself.
When dividing or multiplying a negative value that has a variable the inequality switches sides. Instead of x < -4 it is x > -4. For more information or to understand inequality search for inequality video online.
