Let the height of the first tower be x, then the second tower is (160 - x) m taller than the first tower. Then
tan 30 = (160 - x)/80
160 - x = 80 tan 30
x = 160 - 80 tan 30 = 160 - 46.19 = 113.8 m

Therefore, the height of the first tower is 113.8 m.

How do you write 22.5% as a fraction in simplest form?
Darya [45]

Answer: 9/40

Step-by-step explanation: To write a percent as a fraction in lowest terms, remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100.

So here, 22.5% can be written as the ratio 22.5 to 100 or 22.5/100.

Notice however that 22.5/100 is not in lowest terms so we need to multiply the numerator and the denominator of 22.5 by 10 in order to remove the decimal point. When we do this, we will end up with the fraction 225/1000.

The fraction 225/1000 can be written in lowest terms by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 25 and we get the fraction 9/40.

Therefore, 22.5% can be written as the fraction 9/40.

The diameter of a circle is 1.4 centimeters. Find its area. Use 3.14 Round to the nearest
NeTakaya

Answer:

Area = 1.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = πr^{2}

π = 3.14

diameter = 1.4

radius (half of diameter) = 0.7

Area = 3.14 x 0.7^{2}

Area = 3.14 x 0.49

Area = 1.5386

round to the nearest hundredth:

1.5386 = 1.54

Florian ran 1.2 miles and walked 4.8 laps around the path at the park for a total distance of 3.6 miles. Which shows the correct
tangare [24]

Answer:

The correct answer would be D) 4.8x + 1.2 = 3.6; x = 0.5 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because laps would be the dependent variable, so we know the number of them (4.8) would be multiplied by the variable (x). We also know that 1.2 is the constant. Now we can solve to make sure this is the right equation.

4.8x + 1.2 = 3.6

4.8x = 2.4

x = 0.5
