Answer:
The flag pole is 38.96 feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle of depression from the top of the flagpole to an object on the ground is 33°.
The object is 60 feet from the base of the cliff.
We need to find the height of the flag pole.
Here, base, B = 60 feet
We know that,
Put all the values to find P.
So, the flag pole is 38.96 feet tall.
X = 1st number, y = 2nd number, z = 3rd number
x + y + z = 26
y = 2x
z = 2x + 6
x + (2x) + (2x + 6) = 26
5x + 6 = 26
5x = 26 - 6
5x = 20
x = 20/5
x = 4 <=== first number
y = 2x....y = 2(4) = 8 <=== second number
z = 2x + 6....z = 2(4) + 6 = 8 + 6 = 14 <=== third number
Hope this helps explain a little better
Hello!
Here are the steps to your problem:
3x + 5 = x - 3
3x -x = -3 -5
2x = -8
x = -4
I hope this helps you! Have a lovely day!
