Angelo bought apples and bananas at the fruit salad. He bought 20 pieces of fruit and spent $11.50. Apples cost $0.50 and banana
s cost $0.75 each. Write a system of equations to model the problem. (Hint: One equation will represent the number of pieces of fruit. A second equation will represent the money spent on the fruit.)

Answer:
5507.79 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the height of the mountain, we can draw triangles as in the image attached.
Let's call the height of the mountain 'h', and the distance from the first point (31 degrees) to the mountain 'x'.
Then, we can use the tangent relation of the angles:
tan(34) = h/x
tan(31) = h/(x+1000)
tan(31) is equal to 0.6009, and tan(34) is equal to 0.6745, so:
h/x = 0.6745 -> x = h/0.6745
using this value of x in the second equation:
h/(x+1000) = 0.6009
h/(h/0.6745 + 1000) = 0.6009
h = 0.6009 * (h/0.6745 + 1000)
h = 0.8909*h + 600.9
0.1091h = 600.9
h = 600.9 / 0.1091 = 5507.79 feet
Answer:
21.68 minutes ≈ 21.7 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Initial temperature
T = 100°C
Final temperature = 60°C
Temperature after (t = 3 minutes) = 90°C
Now,
using the given equation
at T = 90°C and t = 3 minutes
or
taking the natural log both sides, we get
3k =
or
3k = -0.2876
or
k = -0.09589
Therefore,
substituting k in 1 for time at temperature, T = 65°C
or
or
or
taking the natural log both the sides, we get
( -0.09589)t = ln(0.125)
or
( -0.09589)t = -2.0794
or
t = 21.68 minutes ≈ 21.7 minutes
