Answer:

43 °

Step-by-step explanation:

In the statement they mention the height and in addition to that the horizontal distance where a right triangle is formed, therefore we can apply a trigonometric ratio to calculate the angle, in this case it is the tangent, which relates the two legs of the angle:

Tan A ° = opposite / adjacent

opposite = 66, adjacent = 72, replacing we have:

Tan A ° = 66/72 = 0.9166

A ° = arc tan (0.9166)

A ° = 42.51

That is, the angle of elevation is 43 °

How to factor <br> 49y^{2}-9x^{2}
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

(7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

49y² - 9x² = (7y)² - (3x)²                   {a = 7y ; b - 3x}

               = (7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)

Matching quantities with units
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

1. Volume = length x width x height => cubic centimetres.

2. Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width) => metres.

3. Speed = Distance /time => metres per second.

4. Area = length x width => square metres.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Volume = length x width x height

If the length, width and height are measured in centimetre (cm) , then, the unit of the volume will be:

Volume = cm x cm xcm = cm3 i.e cubic centimetres.

2. Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)

If the length and width are measured in meter (m), then, the unit of the perimeter will also be in metre (m).

3. Speed = Distance /time

If the unit of distance is measured in metre (m) and the time is measured in second (s), then , the unit of the speed will be:

Speed = Distance /time = m/s i.e metres per second.

4. Area = length x width

If the length and width are measured in metres (m), then, the unit of the area will be:

Area = m x m = m2 i.e square metres

Lena and 3 of her friends bought just enough food to go on a 12- day camping trip. Pete and Jane surprised them by showing up at
bekas [8.4K]

The number of people increased by 2.

This means as a ratio it is now 6/4 as many as originally planned.

6/4 can be reduced to 3/2.

The time and the number of people are inversely proportional, so the food would last 2/3 ( inverse is flipping the original ratio over) the original length of time.

This means the length of time the food lasts is reduced by 1/3, which is 33.3%

11/(x+9)=5<br> I am struggling with this question. Is there a solution?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

x=-6.8

\\ step \: by \: step \: explanation \\  \frac{11}{(x + 9)}  = 5 \\ 11 = 5(x + 9) \\ 11 = 5x + 45 \\ 5x = 11 - 45 \\ 5x =  - 34 \\ x =   \frac{ - 34}{5}  =  - 6.8
