Answer:There are two right triangles. You need to find the opposite side (the height) of each of them. The difference between the two is the height of the blade, x.
You know the adjacent, 440, and you are looking for the opposite, so you need to use tan for both.
tan (30) = y / 440
y = 440 * tan (30) = 254.034...
tan (38.8) = z / 440
y = 440 * tan (38.8) = 353.769.--
353.8 - 254.0 = 99.8 = 100 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, let's look at the problem once again.
8%, or 8/100 of the bag were green jelly beans.
Let's see what we can do to find out a number of other jelly beans, not including the green ones.
We know that 92% of jelly-beans are not green.
92% is 11.5 times more than 8%
(92/8)
24 (or 8%) times 11.5 = 276
276 - number of jelly beans that are not green.
276 plus 24 = 300.
Answer: 300 jelly beans were in one bag.
2(4x+5)>7x+20 perform indicated multiplication on left side
8x+10>7x+20 subtract 7x from both sides
x+10>20 subtract 10 from both sides
x>10
or in interval notation, x=(10, +oo)
The first and last choices are the only ones whose angles total 180 degrees, so they're the only possible triangles.
For 6: 12, 18, 24, 30, 36
For 9: 18, 27, 36, 45, 54
For 7: 14, 21, 28, 35, 42
