Answer:

65.56°

Step-by-step explanation:

= We solve the above question using the Trigonometric function of Tangent

tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent

Opposite = 220 feet = Height of the building

Adjacent = 100 feet = Length of the shadow

Hence,

tan θ = 220/100

tan θ = 2.2

= arctan(2.2)

= 65.55604522°

Approximately = 65.56°

Ella takes 1 3/5 hours to complete a painting. Holly takes 3/4 of the time that Ella takes. How long will Holly take to complete
Misha Larkins [42]
1. you have to figure out what 3/4 of Ella's time is.
1 \frac{3}{5}  =  \frac{8}{5}
(You find that out by multiplying 5x1. Then add 3.)
2. Convert the fractions into decimals. (This will help make it easier when dividing.)
\frac{8}{5}  = 8 \div 5 = 1.6
\frac{3}{4}  = 3 \div 4 = .75
3. Next you are going to divide 1.6 by .75
1.6 \div .75 = 2.13
4. Now multiple 2.13 by 5.
2.13 \times 5 = 10.65

Rachel works at a bookstore. On Tuesday, she sold twice as many books as she did on Monday. On Wednesday, she sold 6 fewer books
natali 33 [55]
Let m = the amount books Rachel sold on Monday.
then t = the amount books Rachel sold on Tuesday.<span>
then w = </span><span>the amount books Rachel sold on Wednesday.

On Tuesday she sold twice as she did on Monday.
 t = m * 2

On Wednesday she sold 6 fewer books than she did on Tuesday
w = t - 6

Now for the fun.

t = m * 2
w = t - 6

Substitute t for real value

w = m * 2 - 6

Now solve for m.

w - 6 = m * 2 <-- Transpose the 6
(w-6)/2 = m <-- Transpose the 2.
m = (w-2)/2 < The Law of Reflexive Property of Equality</span>
