While surveying Overlook Cave, Mike measures the angle of elevation from his line of sight to the top of a rock formation as 22°

. The rock formation is 10 feet away and he is measuring from a point 3 feet above the floor of the cave. To the nearest tenth of a foot, how high is the rock formation?

Answer:

The rock formation is approximately 7 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>We can visualize this situation as a triangle and know that the bottom side is </em><em>10</em><em> and the angle of elevation (the angle created by Mike and the ground, looking to the top of a rock). With this information, we can use tangent to solve.</em>

<em>x = the height of the rock formation</em>

tan(22°) = x/10

10 tan(22°) = x

x = ~4.04 feet

<em>We also have to add the </em><em>3 feet</em><em> to it because it is being measured 3 feet above the floor.</em>

x + 3 = 7.04 feet

Answer:
Two 

Explanation:
The solution of a system of equations is defined as the values which satisfies both equations.

Graphically, the solutions are represented by the points of intersection between the two equtaions.

In the given graph, we have a circle and a line, we can note that these two intersect in two points.

This means that the system has two solutions

Hope this helps :)

Which measures are $1 greater for Group B than for Group A?
Marrrta [24]

Answer: C

the mean and the median

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached table,

The range of group A = 5 - 0 = 5

The range of group B = 4 - 1 = 3

Difference in range is not equal to $1

The mode of A = 1

The mode of B = 3

Difference in mode is not equal to $1

The median of A = (1 + 2)/2 = 1.5

The median of B = 3

Difference = 3 - 1.5 = $1.5

The mean of A = 16/15 = 1.07

The mean of B = 40/15 = 2.67

The difference = $1.6

From the above analysis, we can therefore conclude that non of the measures are $1 greater for Group B than for Group A

The best option among the options is

the mean and the median
