The equation can be modeled as
X + X + (X+4) = 61
X is used for all because they are all the same number and can be given the same variable
The third is given plus four so we can use a common variable
3x + 4 = 61
3x = 57 (subtracted four)
x = 19 (divided by three)
Solving for third side so x + 4
The third side is 23 inches
Answer:
Expand the equation,Multiply first numbers of each set, outer numbers of each set, inner numbers of each set, and the last numbers of each set,Combine like terms,and Solve the equation and simplify, if needed
Step-by-step explanation:
6 goes into 23 - 3 times
remainder 5 (3 and 5/6)
The height of the trre will be given by:
tan θ=(opposite)/(adjacent)
θ=52°
Adjacent= distance of the golfer to the tree= 10 ft
opposite = height, h, of the tree
thus
tan 52=h/10
hence solving for h we get:
h=10tan52
h=12.799~12.8 ft
