Answer:

Length of shadow on the ground = 11 ft (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of pole = 15 ft

Angle of elevation of the sun = 53°

Find:

Length of shadow on the ground = ?

Computation:

⇒ Tan A = Height / Base

⇒ Tan A = Height of pole / Length of shadow on the ground

⇒ Tan 53° = Height of pole / Length of shadow on the ground

⇒ Tan 53° = Height of pole / Length of shadow on the ground

⇒ 1.327 = 15 / Length of shadow on the ground

⇒ Length of shadow on the ground = 15 ft / 1.327

⇒ Length of shadow on the ground = 11.3 ft

Length of shadow on the ground = 11 ft (Approx)

Kamila [148]

Answer:

$193,815

Step-by-step explanation:

The fast-food restaurant sells between 118 and 236 hamburgers per day.

And the profits per 59 hamburgers per day is $177.00.

Let us take an average of 118 and 236 that is 177 hamburgers sells per day.

So, the profit per day will be $(177 × 3) = $531  

Therefore, the yearly profit will be $(531 × 365) = $193,815. (Answer)

The sum of Ellie's age and Genya's age is 60. In six years, Genya will be eight times as old as Ellie. How old is Ellie now?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

<u>2 years old</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ellie's age ⇒⇒⇒ x

And Genya's age ⇒⇒⇒ y

∵ The sum of Ellie's age and Genya's age is 60

∴ x + y = 60 ⇒ (1)

∵ In six years, Genya will be eight times as old as Ellie

∴ (y + 6) = 8 (x+6)

∴ y + 6 = 8x + 48       subtract 6 from both sides

∴ y = 8x + 42 ⇒ (2)

By substituting from 2 at 1 with the value of y

∴ x + (8x + 42) = 60

∴ 9x = 60 - 42 = 18

∴ x = 18/9 = 2

∴ y = 60 - x = 58

So, Ellie's age now = 2 years old

And Genya's age = 58 years old

PLEASE HELP
sattari [20]

Answer: THIRD OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case it is important to know that  by definition, there are three possible cases for the solution of a System of equations. These are shown below:

 1. If the lines intersect each other, then the System of equations has ONE SOLUTION.

2. If the lines are parallel, then the System of equations has NO SOLUTION.

3. If the two equations are the same line, then the System of equations has INFINITELY MANY SOLUTIONS.

Observe the graphs attached in the exercise.

You can notice in the third graph that the "line a" and the "line b" are exactly the same line.

Therefore, based on the explained before, you can conclude that the third graph given in the exercise contains a System of equations with Infinitely many solutions.
