Answer:
n < -10
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2y−9) is the correct answer
Tan52° = x/29
The angle of elevation is 52°, so that must be inside the tan function.
Tan is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Jessica’s height is unknown, so we can call that x. The adjacent side of the triangle is the shadow, which is 29’m. Since tan is opposite over adjacent (remember SOH CAH TOA), the fraction must be x/29.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Area formula:</u>
<u>The height is:</u>
- h = (x + 2)sin 45° = √2(x + 2)/2
<u>Substitute the area value an set an equation:</u>
- 4√2 = (2x - 3)√2(x + 2)/2
- (2x - 3)(x + 2) = 8
- 2x² + x - 6 = 8
- 2x² + x - 14 = 0
- D = 1 + 4*2*14 = 113
- x = (-1 + √113)/4 = 2.41 (rounded)
Note. the second root ignored as negative
