*see attachement for diagram

Answer:

40.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the part that broke away be represented as "x"

Thus, the digram makes a right triangle shape.

The closest total length of tree before the storm = x + 14 ft

Apply trigonometric function to find x.

Reference angle = 58°

Side adjacent to reference angle = 14 ft

Hypotenuse = x

Apply CAH, which is:

Cos 58 = adj/hyp

Cos 58 = 14/x

x * Cos 58 = 14

x = 14/Cos 58

x = 26.4191188 ≈ 26.4 ft

✔️closest total length of tree before the storm = x + 14 ft = 26.4 + 14 = 40.4 ft

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

A. Positive

Step-by-step explanation:

They ask us about the relationship between reading and grades.

First you have to go to the first part of the statement that says:

"Dr. Yancy conducted a correlation study in which she found that the more time children in her study read at home the better they performed in school"

In this case they tell us that there is a positive correlation, that the more you read the better your performance in school is.

Performance is your grades, and home study can be reading, so the score is positive in the second half, too.

darcy likes to eat peanut butter and raisins on apple slices. on each apple slice she puts 1/16 cup of peanut butter and 8 raisi
netineya [11]
The answer is 7/10.

For one apple slice, Darcy needs 1/16 cup of peanut butter and 8 raisins. She has 2/5 cup of peanut butter. To compare how many butter she has and she needs we will divide 2/5 with 1/1

This means that Darcy needs 5/80 cup of peanut butter <span>and 8 raisins.
If she has 32/80 cup of peanut butter, she will have it only fo 6 or 7 apple slices (32/80 </span>÷ 5/80 = 6.4) depending how it is rounded. If she prepares 6 apple slices, she will still have a little of peanut butter left (0.4 = 2/5 of cup). So, she will prepare 7 apple slices so the butter will be all gone.

For 7 apple slices, she needs 56 raisins (7 × 8 raisins).
That is 56 raisins out of 80 raisins, so <span>fraction of the 80 raisins did she eat is:
</span><span>\frac{56}{80} = \frac{7}{10}</span>
