Answer:
x=17
Step-by-step explanation:
Since these angles are supplementary, they will add up to 180 degrees, so you can set up the equation like this:
4x+8+104=180
First, combine like terms:
4x+(8+104)=180
4x+112=180
Next, subtract 112 from both sides:
4x+112(-112)=180(-112)
4x=68
Then, divide each side by 4:
4x(/4)=68(/4)
x=17
17 is your answer.
Answer: From the 60° angle, the flagpole is the opposite side and the shadow is the adjacent side of the triangle.
tangent 60° = opposite/adjacent
so
tan 60° = 20/x
multiply both sides by x and you have
x · tan60° = 20
divide both sides by tan 60° and you have
x = 20/tan60°
x = 11.5 ft.
if this is wrong sorry don’t be mad but if it’s right then hope this helps
Johnny is selling tickets to a school play. On the first day of ticket sales he sold 14 senior (S) citizen tickets and 4 child (C) tickets for a total of $200. On the second day of ticket sales he sold 7 senior (S) citizen tickets and 1 child (C) ticket for a total of $92. What is the price of one child ticket?
14S + 4C = 200
14S = 200 - 4C
S = (200 - 4C)/14
7S + 1C = 92
7S = 92 - C
S = (92 - C)/7
(200 - 4C)/14 = (92 - C)/7
7 x (200 - 4C) = 14 x (92 - C)
1400 - 28C = 1288 - 14C
1400 - 1288 = 28C - 14C
112 = 14C
C = 112/14 = 8
the price of one child ticket = $8
