see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos 56°=AC/AB
where
AC is the adjacent side to angle 56 degrees------> the distance from the surveyor to the building
AB is the hypotenuse-----> 148 ft 2 in
56 degrees------> is the angle of elevation
so
cos 56°=AC/AB---------> solve for AC
AC=AB*cos 56°
AB=148 ft 2 in
convert 2 in to ft
1 ft -----> 12 in
x ft------> 2 in
x=2/12-----> x=0.17 ft
AB=148 ft 2 in-----> 148 ft+0.17 ft------> AB=148.17 ft
AC=AB*cos 56°----> AC=148.17*cos 56°------> AC=82.86 ft
convert 0.86 ft to in
0.86 ft=0.86*12-----> 10.32 in
distance AB=82 ft 10 in
the answer is
the distance from the surveyor to the building is 82 ft 10 in

Answer:
15 = 2x - 3y
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the two points P1(3,-3) and P2(9,1).
First, calculate the slope between those points:
slope
Now simply move 3 steps from (3,-3) towards the y-axis to get the intersection with the y-axis (each step reduces x by 1 and applies the slope to the y-value):
(3,-3)
---> (2, -3 - (2/3)) = (2,-3 2/3)
---> (1, (-3 2/3) - 2/3) = (1, -4 1/3)
---> (0, (-4 1/3) - 2/3) = (0,-5)
This tells us, that our line intersects the y-axis at (0,-5).
The general form of a line is f(x) = <SLOPE> * x + <Y-VALUEATXEQUALSZERO>.
In our case: f(x) = y = (2/3)x -5.
To get it into the correct form, we simply subtract y from both sides and get:
0 = (2/3)x - y - 5
To get only integers just multiply everything with 3 and add 15 and get:
15 = 2x - 3y, which fulfils the form asked for in the problem.
