Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

90=(31-3x)+(19x-5)

90=31-3x+19x-590=19x-3x+31-5

90=16x+26

90-26=17x

64=4x

x=4

m∠R=19(4)-5

m∠R=76-5

m∠R=71

31-3x+19x-5=90

26+16x=90

-26 -26

--------------------

16x= 64

16x/16= 64/16

x=4

m <R=19 (4)-5= 71.

At 3pm, the length of the shadow of a thin vertical pole standing on level ground is the same as the height of the pole. A while

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The height of the pole is 175.97 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the pole is x cm,

Also, let the angle of elevation of the sun to the pole at 3 pm is $\theta$

Thus, by the question,

$tan\theta = \frac{\text{ The height of the pole}}{\text{ The height of the shadow}}$

$\implies tan\theta = \frac{x}{x}$ ( at 3pm the height of shadow = height of the pole)

$\implies tan\theta = 1$

$\implies \theta = 45^{\circ}$

Again, according to the question,

When the angle of elevation is $(\theta - 12^{\circ})$ ,

The height of shadow = x + 95,

$\implies tan(45-12)^{\circ}=\frac{x}{x+95}$

$\implies tan 33^{\circ}=\frac{x}{x+95}$

$\implies tan 33^{\circ}x + 95\times tan33^{\circ}=x$

$\implies tan 33^{\circ}x - x = - 95\times tan33^{\circ}$

$\implies -0.3505924068 x = - 61.6937213538$

$x=175.969930202\approx 175.97\text{ cm}$

A store makes a profit of $15 on a wallet, after a mark up of 60%, what is the selling priceof the wallet?

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Markup: $9 ; Selling Price: $24

Step-by-step explanation:

The store makes a profit of $15, to find the mark up of 60%, multiply 15 x 60%.

15 x 0.6 = 9

Add the markup price to the original price.

9 + 15 = $24

The selling price is $24

Find the ratio of the students who study French to students who do not study French give your answer in its simplest form

Vlad1618 [11]

(2/5) of (2/3) of students = 4/15 of students study French. Then 1-(4/15) = 11/15 of students do not study French. The ratio you want is
(4/15):(11/15) = 4:11
