The length of the sky lift is 3.387.05 ft
Step-by-step explanation;
By an online search, i found that the sky lift
rises at an angle of 20.75 degrees.
Then we can think on a triangle rectangle, such
that:
One cathetus is 1200ft, this is the opposite
cathetus to the angle of 20.75°
The length of the ski lift would be the
hypotenuse of this triangle rectangle.
Then we can use the relationship:
Sin(a) = opposite cathetus/hypoteuse.
such that:
a = 20.75°
opposite cathetus=1200ft
then:
sin(20.75°) = 1200ft/hypotenuse
hypotenuse =1200ft/sin(20.759) =3.387.05 ft
The length of the sky lift is 3.387.05 ft
Given data:
The given biology percentage is B=40%.
The given chemistry percentage is C=24%.
The percenage of earth science as compare to physics is E=P+4%.
The expresion for the sum of all subjects is,
B+C+E+P=100%
40%+24%+E+P=100%
E+P=36%.............................(I)
Substitute given value in the above expression.
P+4%+P=36%
2P=32%
P=16%
The nummber of students assigned earth science is,
E=16%+4%
=20%
Thus, the percentage of the students assigned to the physics subject is 16%.
