Answer:

height of the flagpole = 93.26 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The illustration  forms a right angle triangle. The angle of elevation from his eyes to the flag is 25° . The distance from his eyes at the ground to the base of the flagpole is 200 ft.

The adjacent side of the triangle formed is the distance of his eyes from the flagpole. The height of the flagpole is the opposite side of the right angle triangle formed.

using tangential ratio

tan 25° = opposite/adjacent

tan 25° = x/200

cross multiply

200 tan 25° = x

x = 200 × 0.46630765815

x = 93.261531631

x = 93.26 ft

height of the flagpole = 93.26 ft

What fraction must be subtracted from the sum of 1/4 and 1/6 to have an average of 1/12 of all the two fractions
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

so 1/3 must be subtracted from the sum of 1/4 and 1/6 to have an average of 1/12 of all the two fractions.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the fraction be x

(1/4 + 1/6)-x =  1/12

or, 10/24 - x = 1/12

or, 5/12-1/12 = x

so, x = 4/12 = 1/3

A zoo collected data on the diving times of turtles. Based on the data, the regression line is j = 0.010 + 2.515x, where x is th
mariarad [96]

Answer:

6.298 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are told that x is the time of the dive in minutes.

We simply first need to convert 150 seconds to minutes before substitution into the regression formula;

Kindly recall that 60 seconds = 1 minute

So 150 seconds will be 150/60 = 2.5 minutes

We now proceed to substitute into;

j = 0.010 + 2.515(x)

i = 0.010 + 2.515(2.5)

j = 0.010 + 6.2875

j = 6.2975 which go 3 decimal places is 6.298 meters
