There is a tall tree in ivas backyard. She thinks it might hit her house if it fell over. She measures that the base of the tree

is 50 feet from her house. When Iva stands at the edge of her house, the angle of elevation from her feet to the top of the tree is 50°. Ivas house is safe if the tree’s height is less than the distance from the house.
The height of the tree is ____ 50 feet, so ivas house is ________

Answer:

The height of the tree is Greater than 50 feet, so Iva’s house is not safe

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the height of the tree

Let

h ----> the height of the tree

we know that

The tangent of angle of 50 degrees is equal to divide the opposite side to the angle of 50 degrees (height of the tree) by the adjacent side to the angle of 50 degrees (tree’s distance from the house)

so

tan(50°)=h/50

h=(50)tan(50°)=59.6 ft

therefore

The height of the tree is Greater than 50 feet, so Iva’s house is not safe

Equation M: y = 3x + 4
solmaris [256]
Y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

3x + 4 = 3x + 7
3x - 3x = 7 - 4
0 = 3.....incorrect....this system has no solutions because ur lines are parallel and they never cross.

or look at it this way..
y = 3x + 4
y = 3x + 7

both have slopes of 3...but the y intercepts are different......when this happens, it means the lines are parallel with no solution

Find the Equation of x(2x+5)-3(2x+5)=0
Nata [24]
2x² + 5x -6x - 15 = 0

2x² - x - 15 = 0

2x² -x = 15

x = 3

3 x 3 = 9 x 2 = 18 - 3 = 15

i really don't know how i got 3 in the first place but that is your answer

hope this helps

What are the intercepts of the line 3x – 15y = 60?   A. x-intercept: –4; y-intercept: 20   B. x-intercept: –3; y-intercept: 15  
geniusboy [140]
<span>3x – 15y = 60

y-intercept x = 0</span>
3(0)– 15y = 60
-15y = 60
y = -4

x-intercept y = 0
3x– 15(0) = 60
3x = 60
x  =20

answer :

<span>C. x-intercept: 20; y-intercept: –4</span>
