Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the above figure is a right angled triangle we can use trigonometric ratios to find y

To find y we use tan

tan∅ = opposite/ adjacent

From the question

the opposite is y

the adjacent is 350 ft

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

$\tan(27) = \frac{y}{350}$

y = 350 tan 27

y = 178.3339

We have the final answer as

<h3>y = 178.3 ft to the nearest tenth</h3>

Hope this helps you

How do I solve this?<br><br> x+1/x-2 > 0

Answer:

x ∈ (-oo ; - 1) ∪ (+ 2 ; +oo)

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x+1}{x-2}>0\\ \\x+1>0=>x>-1\\\\x-2>0=>x>2$

x ∈ (+ 2 ; +oo)

$x+1x$

x ∈ (-oo ; - 1)

x ∈ (-oo ; - 1) ∪ (+ 2 ; +oo)

find the equation of a straight line passing through the point(4,5) and equally inclined to the lines 3x = 4y +7 and 5y= 12x +6

galina1969 [7]

<span>First we have to determine the slope of each lines by transforming to the slope-intercept form:

y=(3x-7/)4; m2= ¾y=(12x+6)/5, m3 = 12/5

The formula to be used in the proceeding steps is a=tan^-1(m1-m2)/1+m1m2=tan^-1(m1-m2)/1+m1m2
substituting, a=tan^-1(m1-3/4)/1+3m1/4=tan^-1(m1-12/5)1+12m1/5) =>(4m1-3)/(4+3m1)=(5m1-12)/(5+12m1)m1 = -1applying this slope

y -y1 = m(x-x1)
when y1 = 5 and x1 = 4 then,
y - 5 = -1(x-4)
y = -x +4+ 5 ; y = -x +9</span>
