Ken normally leaves work at 5:00 pm, but he is leaving 20 minutes late today. He decides to make up time by taking the toll road

instead of side streets. He can travel three times faster by taking the toll road. Create an equation in terms of x to represent the number of minutes after 5:00 pm he arrives home from work if he leaves late. Let x represent the number of minutes his normal commute takes when he leaves on time.
y equals one third times x plus twenty
y = 3x + 20
y equals one third times x minus twenty
y = 3x − 20

Answer:

y =1/3x+20

Tara standing 20 feet from a tree and the angle of elevation is 72°. About how tall is the tree?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Approx 61.554 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are dealing with the opposite and adjacent sides, we will use tangent as our ratio.

Since the angle of elevation is 72 degrees, the left side of our equation is tan(72).

The right side of the equation is opposite over adjacent.

x/20

Set these equal to each other.

tan(72) = x/20

Simplify.

20 tan(72)=x

20(3.078) = x

x is approximately 61.554.
