Answer:

22,999 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the solution diagram attached,

The altitude, h of the plane can be solved using trigonometry :

Using :

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Opposite = h

Hypotenus = 47440

Sin 29 = h / 47440

h = 47440 * sin29

h = 22999.368

h = 22,999 feets

Distribute each term in one parenthesis to the other terms in the other parenthesis.

(x - 2) (2x + 3)

First, distribute x. When distributing, multiply

x(2x) = 2x²

x(3) = 3x

Next, distribute the other term, -2. Remember to change the signs.

-2(2x) = -4x

-2(3) = -6

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2x² + 3x - 4x - 6

Combine like terms

3x - 4x = -x

2x² - x - 6

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2x² - x - 6 is your answer

hope this helps

8-2x=5-4x<br> 4+3x=2-2x<br> 2(x-1)+2(3x-1)=0
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

See the below part

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

8 - 2x = 5 - 4x

=> 8 - 5 = -4x + 2x

=> 3 = -2x

=> 3/-2 = x

=> -3/2 = x

2)

4 + 3x = 2 - 2x

=> 4 - 2 = -2x - 3x

=> -2 = -5x

=> 2 = 5x

=> 2/5 = x

3)

2(x - 1) + 2(3x - 1) = 0

=> 2x - 2 + 6x - 2 = 0

=> 8x - 4 = 0

=> 8x = 4

=> x = 4/8

=> x = 1/2

What is the greatest common factor of 44c5,22c3 and 11c4?
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The greatest common factor of the given expressions is

11c^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 44c^5,22c^3,11c^4

44c^5 can be written as

11\times 4\times c^3\times c^2

22c^3 can be written as  

11\times 2\times c^3

and  11c^4 can be written as

11\times 1\times c^3\times c

Comparing the common factors we have 11\times c^3 is the greatest common factor of 44c^5,22c^3,11c^4

Therefore the greatest common factor of the given expressions is

11c^3
