Answer:

1114 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the engineer is at a distance of x feet from the base of the building.

Please see the attached image.

In the triangle, we have

\tan22^{\circ}=\frac{450}{x}

Solving the equation for x, we get

x=\frac{450}{\tan22^{\circ}}\\\\x\approx1114

Thus, the engineer is 1114 foot from the base of the building.

Hello,

tan 22°=450/d
==>d=450/tan 22°=1113.7890... ≈1114 (ft)

Elenna [48]

Answer:

-2.2y - 1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to simplify the expression:

1.2y + 4.5 - 3.4y - 6.3

Collect like terms:

1.2y - 3.4y + 4.5 - 6.3

Simplify:

-2.2y - 1.8

That is the answer.

Remark

Good thing to know. This is a rounding question.

A

Answer A is a bit nasty. I round 5 to the next highest number on the left. That may not be what you have been told to do. Let us round A to  5.7 and see if anything else does this.

B

Answer B rounds to 5.6

C

Answer C rounds to 5.6 as well. 3 is less than 5 so you round down.

D

Answer D rounds to 5.6(.) The zero has no effect on the 6.

Answer

Since there is nothing special about A and nothing else rounds to 5.7, the answer is A. So your rule is when the last number is 5, you round the second last number to one more than it was, regardless of the properties of the second last number.

Cable has 24 pennies he has hafe as many nickels as pennies he has 5 more dimes than nickels he has 6 fewer quarters than dimes
Andreyy89
Pennies (P) = 24
Nickels = 1/2P
Dimes = 1/2P + 5
Quarters = (1/2P + 5) -6

Therefore...

Nickels = 1/2P = 1/2(24)= 12
Dimes = 12 + 5 = 17
Quarters = 17 - 6 = 11
