Bella wants to know how tall the oak tree in her back yard is, so she picks
1 answer:
Answer:
B = 62.9ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance where she is from the oak tree is 75ft,
The angle of elevation the stone makes with the top of the oak tree is 40°
The height of the tree is x ft
See attached document for better illustration
Using SOHCAHTOA,
Tanθ = opposite/ adjacent
θ = 40°
Opposite = x ft
Adjacent = 75ft
Tan40 = x / 75
X = 75 × tan40
X = 75 × 0.8390
X = 62.92ft
The height of the oak tree is 62.9ft

Answer:
30% students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of total students of a school.
63% are girls then total number of girls = (0.63)x
37% are boys then total number of boys = ( 0.37)x
Now 23% of girls wear contacts then total number of girls
= (0.63x) × 0.23
= (0.1449x)
And 42% of boys wear contacts then total number of boys wearing contacts
= (0.37x) ( 0.42)
= (0.1554)x
Total students wears contacts = ( 0.1449x) + (0.1554x)
= (0.3003x)
Percentage of students wear contacts = × 100
= × 100
= 30%
All 30% students wear contacts.
