Answer:
The distance between the light and the actor's face is 29.24 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
In the attached photo, you can see where the hypotenuse, the opposite side, and and adjacent side are located from the given angle measurement which is 70°. Our known side length is 10 ft which is our adjacent side and our variable is the hypotenuse. So, we will use <u>cos</u>.
Let's plug in our numbers and variable.
Since our hypotenuse is a variable, we are going to flip the equation so we can find the value of the hypotenuse which is also our variable.
Divide 10 by (cos)70.
<em>x = 29.24</em>
So, the hypotenuse is 29.24 feet which shows the distance between the light and the actor's face.
-2x+14 is the same as 14 - 2x
Let's say you started off with $14. If you want to buy a soda worth $2, then you have 14-2 = 12 dollars left. If you buy two sodas, then you spend 2*2 = 4 dollars with 14-4 = 10 dollars left.
In general, buying x sodas will cost you 2*x dollars and you have 14 - 2x dollars left over. The x is simply a placeholder for a whole number. For example, if x = 3, then...
14 - 2x = 14 - 2*3 = 14 - 6 = 8
meaning buying 3 sodas cost you $6 and you have $8 left over.
If y is the amount left over, then we can say y = 14 - 2x which is equivalent to y = -2x+14
note: graphing this equation will go through the two points (0,14) and (7,0) as shown in the image below. A graph is handy to help see various points on the line. Each point represents the amount of sodas you can buy (x) and the amount left over in your pocket (y). Keep in mind that neither x nor y can be negative, so it only makes sense to restrict the graph.
