Answer:

<em> Length of guy wire is 590.6 ft</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

A radio transmission tower is  210  feet tall. How long should a guy wire be if it is to be attached 8 feet from the top and is to make an angle of  20°  with the ground. Give your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.

height of tower = 210 ft

8 ft fro the top leaves 210 - 8 = 202 ft to the ground

This is an angle of elevation problem

the opposite is 202 ft

hypotenuse = ?

angle is  20°  

using sin ∅ = opp/hyp

sin  20°  = 202/hyp

0.342 = 202/hyp

hyp = 202/0.342 = <em>590.6 ft   this is the length of the guy wire</em>

Solve using elimination.<br> 3x − 5y = 18 <br> -10x + 5y = 10
olga55 [171]

3x - 5y = 18 over

-10x + 5y = 10

Add them because the 5y's have the right symbols for us to add

-7x = 28

Divide

x = -4

Now you can plug in -4 for x in one equation, I would use the first equation!

3(-4) - 5y = 18

-12 - 5y = 18

Add 12

-5y = 30

Divide

y = -6

Your solutions are going to be:

x = -4

y = -6

To check your work plug x and y into one equation:

3(-4) - 5(-6) = 18

-12 + 30 = 18

18 = 18

Since 18 does equal 18 you know that your solution's work!
