Answer:

124.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using the Trigonometric function of Tangent

= tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent

θ = Angle of Elevation = 73°

Adjacent = 38 ft

Opposite = x

Hence

tan 73° = x/38 ft

Cross Multiply

x = tan 73° × 38 ft

x = 124.2923995 ft

Approximately = 124.3 ft

Therefore, Nick is 124.3 ft from the ground.

3x2 + 2(x2 – 20) = 16 - 2x2
lana66690 [7]

3x(2) + 2(2x - 20) = 16 - 2x(2)

6x + 4x - 40 = 16 - 4x

10x - 40 = 16 - 4x

14x - 40 = 16

14x = 56

x = 4

Hope this helps! ;)

Llana [10]
The large puppy weighs 20.97 Pounds. This is because 2/3 of a hundred is 66. You would do 4.5 Times 4.66. This equals 20.97. It can be rounded to 21. Hope this helps!
