Answer: 15 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.
Tan α = opposite side / adjacent side
Where α is the angle of elevation to the sun, , the opposite side (x) is the height of the tree, and the adjacent side is the length of the shadow.
Replacing with the values given:
Tan 31 = x /25
Tan 31 (25) =x
x = 15 feet
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
Answer:
(-2x)-5x-9 = (-7x)-9
3x - 13 = 3x - 13 (you cannot simplify more)
Your question was wery wierd but i tried to answer best I could.
And also I dont know what you mean about "-+5"
The graph shows the maximum residual is ...
◉ Data point (10, 10); Residual = 4.50_____
Apparently, this question makes no use of the line of best fit.
Answer:
d 16 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
1 mile equals 8 minutes
2 miles equals 16 minutes
Its fairly straightforward. Since the bottom equation only has one unknown,x, because y=1.3, you can plug y in and solve for x. Once you find the value of x, you then have the value for two variables, x and y, and again have one unknown coefficient a. To solve for the coefficient you just plug in your y value (1.3) and your x value (which can be rounded to 0.42). Using a little bit of algebra, you can then solve for a which should be a=2.108. I am not sure if your teacher wants you to solve it this way but you could also use the elimination method or substitution method that you would of learned when discussing system of equations. But no matter which way you do it, the math follows the rules. Hope this helps. I’d suggest you solve it yourself to double check my work.
