hope it helps!

Answer:

107.9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine Kite is a point A. The person ,who keeps the string is point B.

The height of flying is AC=85 ft.  So we have right triangle ABC :angle C=90 degrees, angle B is 52 degrees. Length of AB (triangle ABC hypotenuse) is the length of the string.

AB=AC/sinB=85/sin52=107.8665...=approx 107.9 ft

Lupe and her friends spend $20 on hot dogs and popcorn at a
vodomira [7]

Answer:

They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that they buy x hotdogs and y popcorn

∵ They buy a total of 11 hotdogs and popcorn

∵ The number of hotdogs is x and the number of popcorn is y

∴ x + y = 11 ⇒ (1)

∵ Hot dogs cost $2.50 each

∵ Popcorn costs $1.00 each

∵ They spend $20 on hot dogs and popcorn

→ Multiply x by 2.5 and y by 1, add the products and equate the sum by 20

∴ 2.5(x) + 1(y) = 20

∴ 2.5x + y = 20 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

→ Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)

∵ (2.5x - x) + (y - y) = (20 - 11)

∴ 1.5x + 0 = 9

∴ 1.5x = 9

→ Divide both sides by 1.5 to find x

∴ x = 6

→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ 6 + y = 11

→ Subtract 6 from both sides

∴ 6 - 6 + y = 11 - 6

∴ y = 5

∴ They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn
