Answer:

46.05degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Height of tree = 18ft (Opposite)

length of shadow = 25ft (hypotenuse)

Required

Angle of elevation

Sin theta = opp/hyp

Sin x = 18/25

sin x = 0.72

x = arcsin(0.72)

x = 46.05

Hence the angle of elevation of the sun is 46.05degrees

How do I solve this?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

x is in the range [-1,4]

Step-by-step explanation:

I haven't worked with absolute value inequalities in awhile, but let's take a wack at this.

We are given the following inequality:

| 2x - 3 | <= 5

This implies two possible cases:

[1] -5 <= 2x -3

Or

[2] 2x - 3 <= 5

So let's solve x for both of these cases:

[1] -5 <= 2x - 3

 -2 <= 2x

 -1  <= x

[2]  2x - 3 <= 5

 2x <= 8

  x <= 4

So from these cases, we can say the following is true:

x >= -1  and x <= 4

Thus, we can write this in the form

-1 <= x <= 4

Or in interval notation:

{ x is element of reals | -1 <= x <= 4}

Also written as

x is in the range [-1,4]

Where the closed brackets represent 1 and 4 as possible answers whereas parenthesis would imply they were not.

Cheers.
