Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

15:21 = x:420 (students that want da spaghetti:overall students)

cross multiply

15   x

21  420

6300=21x

divide by 21 on both sides

300=x

300 students out of the 420 prefer da spaghetti

Carol is standing 8 feet from a lamppost. The angle of elevation from her eyes to the top of the lamppost is 20o, and the angle
kupik [55]

Answer:

Height of the lamppost = 5.602 ft + 2.912 ft = 8.514 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The illustration form a triangle that can be demarcated into 2 right angle triangle. One triangle representing depression triangle and the other elevation triangle.

Depression triangle

The opposite side of the triangle formed is the length of the pole from the base to the horizontal line of sight. Therefore,

using tangential ratio

tan 35° = opposite/adjacent

tan 35° = a/8

cross multiply

a = 8 tan 35°

a = 8 × 0.70020753821

a = 5.60166030568

a = 5.602 ft

Elevation triangle

The opposite side of this right angle triangle represent the length from the horizontal line of sight to the top of the lamppost.

tan 20° = opposite/adjacent

tan 20° = b/8

cross multiply

b = 8 tan 20°

b = 8 × 0.36397023426

b = 2.91176187413

b = 2.912 ft

Height of the lamppost = 5.602 ft + 2.912 ft = 8.514 ft

He coordinates of the vertices of a polygon are (−2, −2) , (−2, 3) , (2, 4) , (3, 1) , and (0, −2) .
Nitella [24]

Answer: The perimeter is 17.52


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can plot the points, as you can see in the graph attached.

2. As you can see in the graph, the points are:

A(-2,-2)\\B(-2,3)\\C(2,4)\\D(3,1)\\E(0,-2)

And the lenghts <em>AB</em> and <em>EA</em> are:

AB=5

EA=2

3. To find the other lenghts, you can apply the formula for calculate the distance between two points:

distance=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

4. Thefore, you have:

BC=\sqrt{(2-(-2))^{2}+(4-3)^{2}}=4.12\\CD=\sqrt{(2-3)^{2}+(4-1)^{2}}=3.16\\DE=\sqrt{(3-0)^{2}+(1-(-2))^{2}}=4.24

5. The perimeter is:

P=AB+CD+DE+EA\\P=5+4.12+3.16+4.24+2\\P=17.52
