Answer:

2.08 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached :

We can calculate the height of the shorter building using trigonometry :

s = Height of shorter building

t = height of taller building

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

θ = 36°

Adjacent = 12, opposite = s

Tan36° = s / 12

0.7265425 × 12 = s

s = 8.72 meters

s = height of shorter building 8.72 meters ( 2 decimal places)

Height of taller building :

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

θ = 48°

Adjacent = t ; opposite = 12

Tan48° = 12 / t

1.1106125 = 12 / t

1.1106125 × t = 12

t = 12 / 1.1106125

t = 10.80 meters ( 2 decimal places)

Height of Taller building = 10.80 meters

Difference in height :

(10.80m - 8.72m) = 2.08 meters

Mai and Jada are both running on a treadmill. Mai travels 5 miles in 15 minutes. Jada travels 4 miles in 14 minutes. Who ran at
sasho [114]

Answer:

Mai

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate, you must determine who is going faster per minute. To do this, you must divide the total number of miles by the total number of minutes.

Mai: 5 miles / 15 minutes = 1/3 miles per minute

Jada: 4 miles / 14 minutes = 2/7 miles per minute

Then, use a common denominator to make calculations easier:

Mai: 1/3 * 7/7

Jada: 2/7 * 3/3

You should get:

Mai: 7/21 miles per minute

Jada: 6/21 miles per minute

By looking at this, you can see that Mai is traveling slightly faster, going more miles than Jada per minute.

Help desks:

Service charge rate=$160,000/3,200 calls

Service charge rate=$50 per call

Network center:

Service charge rate=$735,000/9,800 devices

Service charge rate=$75 per device monitored

Electronic mail:

Service charge rate=$100,000/10,000 accounts

Service charge rate=$10 per user or per e-mail account

Local voice support:

Service charge rate=$124,600/8,900 phone extensions

Service charge rate=$14 per phone extension

b.  Help desk charge

Help desk charge =(Number of employees times × Percentage of office employees× Percentage with a computer ×Number of calls)× Service charge rate

Help desk charge:

(5,200 employee×25%×96%×1.5)× $50 per call

=$93,600

Network center charge:

[(5,200 employee×25%×96%)+ 600]× $75 per device

=$138,600

Electronic mail:

(5,200 employee×25%×96%×100)×$10 per user or per e-mail account

=$12,480

Local voice support:

(5,200 employee×25%)× $14 per phone extension

=$18,200
