Complete Question
The length of the guy wire supporting a cell tower is 120 m. The guy wire is anchored to the ground at a distance of 80 m from the base of the tower to the nearest hundredth of a meter how tall is the tower?
Answer:
89.44m
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve this question using the Pythagoras Theorem
This is given as:
Hypotenuse² = Opposite ² + Adjacent ²
Hypotenuse = Length of the guy wire = 120m
Adjacent = Distance from the base of the tower = 80m
Opposite = Height of the building = x
Hence:
120² = x² + 80²
Collect like terms
x² = 120² - 80²
x = √120² - 80²
x = √(8000)
x = 89.4427191 m
Approximately the height of the tower is = 89.44m

Answer:
$700
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
Given data
Regular cost of cell phone= $780
discount = 15%
tax = 5.5%
Step two
Let us compute the discounted amount
= 15/100*780
=0.15*780
=$117
hence the selling price is
=780-117
=$663
Also, the tax-deductible is
=5.5/100*663
=0.055*663
=$36.465
The total cost of the phone will be
=663+36.465
=699.465
=$700 to the nearest cent
7000
1/8th in percentage form is 12.5%
12.5% of 56000 is 7000
