Answer:

The angle is 50.2°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tree and its shadow from a right triangle with the tree being the perpendicular and the shadow being the base as shown in the figure attached.

Therefore the angle θ formed by the sun's rays and the ground is:

\theta = tan^-1(\frac{18}{15} )=\boxed{50.2^o}

HELP MEEE!! Please evaluating a compound. Inequality using a graph
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

\frac{x}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we can conclude that,

x is less than 2 and not including as there is a hollow circle at the mark 2.

Also, x is greater than or equal to 7 including 7 as there is a solid circle at the mark 7

So, the compound inequality will be x

Now, the option that simplifies to the above inequality is the required answer.

Let us check the first option.

\frac{x}{2}

\frac{x}{2}

Therefore, option 1 simplifies to the above compound inequality.

So, the correct answer is option 1.
