Answer:
63.44 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
tan(68 degrees)= 85/y
y tan (68 degrees)=85
y=85/tan(68 degrees) ( cross multiply)
y = 34.34 feet
tan (41 degrees)=85/x+y
(x+y)tan(41 degrees)=85
x+y=85/tan 41 degrees
x=85/tan(41 degrees) - y
x= 85/tan (41 degrees)-(34.34) (cross multiply)
Therefore, Travis stepped back 63.44 feet to gain a better view!
Answers my vary but what i got is 140 divided by 10 = 14
Answer:Mark Is 9 years old; Christine is 5 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Present age
LET mark age be x
Christine be x-4 yrs
In 3 yrs Time
Mark will be x+3 yrs old
Christine will be (x -4 +3) = x-1 years old
Also, In 3 years time
Christine = 2/3 Mark
such that
x-1 = 2/3(x+3)
x -1= 2x+6 / 3
3x -3= 2x+6
3X--2X = 6+3
=X=9
Mark Is 9 years old
Christine is x -4 = 9-4=5 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
by using similarity and enlargement
10/8 = 7+y/7
70=56+8y
8y=14
y= 7/4
10/8 = 5+x/5
50=40+8x
x = 8/10 = 4/5
