Answer:

Piper's claim that 3(2a+2) is equal to 5a +6 is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to use the distributive property to distribute the 3 to BOTH the 2a and 2. The resulting expression is 6a+6 NOT 5a+6. Piper's mistake was most probably that she added 3 and 2 to get 5 instead of multiplying them together to get 6.

10.) Kelly is flying a kite to which the angle of elevation is
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

61.08m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let " l " be the length of the rope and " θ " the angle at which it is raised. In other words:

  • l = 65m
  • θ = 70°

As you can see, there has been made a right angle triangle. So:

sin70 =  \frac{h}{l}  \\ h = l \times sin70 \\ h = 65 \times 0.9397 = 61.08 \\ h = 61.08

So the kite is approximately 61.08m above the ground.

In order to find the sin70° i used a calculator.
