Answer:

The angle is approximately 31^{o}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The description i the given question can be represented with the sides of a right angled triangle.

Applying the appropriate trigonometric function, we have;

Tan θ = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

In the question, opposite side = 60 feet, and adjacent side = 100 feet.

Tan θ = \frac{60}{100}

         = 0.6

θ = Tan^{-1} 0.6

  = 30.964^{o}

θ = 31^{o}

The angle of elevation from the end of the shadow to the top of the pole is 31^{o}.

The two tires on a bicycle experience wear much like car tires do; repeated contact with the road or sidewalk will wear down the
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Each bike with both types of tire.

Half of the tires of each type will be in the front wheel and the other half in the rear wheel.

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare the wear of each type of tire in a matched-pair test, the individuals have to test each of the tires in the same conditions.

This will allow to compare the tires wear in equal conditions. If the tires are assigned randomly to the volunteers, there will be difference in the wear due to difference habits of the bikers.

The only way to implement a matched-pair test with bikes is to use one type of tire in the front wheel and the other type in the rear wheel. Half of the tires of each type will be in the front and half in the rear.

In this way, the distance traveled with each type of tire will be the same.

Solve the equation with quadratic formula<br> y^2+3y-10=0
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

y = 2 and y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the coefficient is not greater than 1, you can simply solve the problem without the quadratic formula.

By using the "x" method, you must figure out what multiplies to give you -10, and adds to give you 3

So, you find your values as 5 and -2. You then set these values equal to zero in terms of Y. As so---- (y+5)=0 and (y-2)=0

Then, you solve out to get your answer! Y is equal to -5 and 2
