3 and 1/4 should be your answer.

the first thing you want to do is convert the 1/2 beside the 12 to 2/4ths so you can subtract the two fractions. your new equation would be 12 2/4 - 9 1/4. subtract 1/4th from 2/4ths and you'll get 1/4th. subtract 9 from 12 and you'll get 3.
your answer comes up as 3 and 1/4th.

Can someone help I’m not good with word problems

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

I agree that this question can be confusing:

Apparently point A and point B must be on the same straight line (measured from the light house or the question would be nonsensical)

tan 13 = H / DA where H is height of lighthouse

tan 8 = H / DB tangent measured from point B

tan 13 / tan 8 = DB / DA

DB = .2309 / .1405 * 1279 = 2101 ft

DB - DA = 2101 - 1279 = 822.0 ft

Answer:

here you go :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace the variables with their corresponding values:

$\frac{2(5+3)}{2*5}$

Cancel out 2 in both numerator and denominator.

$\frac{3+5}{5}$

Add 3 and 5 to get 8.

$\frac{8}{5}$

Finally, divide 8 by 5 to get your answer:

$\frac{8}{5} = 1.6$

Your answer is (a) 1.6
