Trigonometry can be used to determine the height of a cell phone tower by using SOH CAH TOA or the Pythagorean theorem. If you look at it as a right triangle you can figure out how tall the tower is. If an angle is given (not a 90°angle) and the value of a side you can figure out all of the sides on the theoretical right triangle. Including the height of the tower.
I'm pretty sure the answer is D. because I don't think anyone would want to take their total meal cost and then multiply it by their tip to make it even larger. You would just add the tip to the meal cost.
Answer:
27.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a ratio that represents the problem:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
Substitute with the dimensions of the 34 foot pole and its 30 foot shadow.
34 : 30
Find the unit rate:
The unit rate is when one number in a ratio is 1.
Let's make the Shadow equal to one by dividing by 30 on both sides.
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
34 : 30
/30 /30
1.13 : 1
Now, let's multiply by 24 on both sides to find the height of the tree.
Multiply:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
1.13 : 1
x24 x24
27.2 : 24
Therefore, the tree is 27.2 feet tall.
Answer:
24hours
Step-by-step explanation:
let Evan be x, Tyler=x-12,equate;1/x+1/(x-12)=1/8,to get x=24 or 4.The correct value of x=24 because if you take x=4 means that Tyler=-8hours which is impossible
Equation:
y + 2 = 1/3(x+1)
Assuming you are solving for Y:
y + 2 = 1/3(x) + 1/3(1)
(y + 2) - 2 = (1/3x + 1/3) - 2
y = 1/3x + 1/3 - 2
<u>y = 1/3x - 5/3</u>
