Answer:

  56.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent of the angle relates the opposite side (height above the window) to the adjacent side (distance between buildings) in the right triangle that models this geometry.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(35°) = (height above window)/(distance between buildings)

  height above window = (52 ft)tan(35°) ≈ 36.4 ft

Added to the window height of 20 ft, the height of the other building is ...

  20 ft + 36.4 ft = 56.4 ft

Write as many equations as possible that could represent the relationship between
IgorC [24]

Answer:

a) Here we have:

"In Family A, the youngest child is 7 years younger than the oldest, who is 18"

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

O = age of the oldest child.

Then we know that:

Y = O - 7

O = 18

Then we can replace the second equation into the first one:

Y = 18 - 7 = 11.

b) Here we have:

"In Family B, the middle child is 5 years older than the youngest child."

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

M = age of the middle child.

Here we have only one equation:

M = Y + 5.
