Answer:
70.1 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
See the attached diagram.
Let AC is the reservoir with A as the bottom and C is the top.
Now, B is the position of Howard which is 109 yards from A i.e. AB = 109 yards.
Again, the angle elevation from B to C is 50 degrees.
So, ∠ ABC = 50°
Now,
⇒ x = 109 cos 50 = 70.1 yards.
Therefore, the distance between the top of the reservoir and Howard i.e. BC is equal to 70.1 yards. (Answer)
A cube has all sides of equal length.
So let the side be x
that will be length = width = height = x
Now, when we cut the loaf into 5 equal slices, the length and height of the slices are the same as the original loaf. But the width will become less with each slicing. Here the width corresponds to the thickness of the slices.
For each slice the dimensions are -
Length = x
height = x
width = 0.6
Volume of the original loaf is x³.
Volume of 5 slices is 5(x * x * 0.6).
Volume that is left after the cutting the slices is 235 inch³.
So, equation of the volume is=
x³ - 5(0.6x²) = 235
Solve for x using this equation.
x³ - 3x² = 235
x³ - 3x² - 235 = 0
Using a graph calculator to find the roots, we get
x = 7.35
Hence the dimensions of the original loaf is 7.35 inches for each side.
