Answer:

  (b)  112.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

For the given geometry, this becomes ...

  tan(65°) = (height above eye level)/(50 ft)

Then we have ...

  (height above eye level) = (50 ft)tan(65°) = 107.2 ft

Adding the height of eye level will give us the height of the building.

  building height = (eye level height) + (height above eye level)

  building height = (5 ft) + (107.2 ft)

  building height = 112.2 ft

Its 16.

So you have 12 miles on that trail, and markers every 2/3 of the way there. If you were to divide 2 with 3 then you can get the decimal of the fraction. Which in this case it’s 0.75. So every single 0.75 of the mile there is a marker. Divide 12 with 0.75 and you get 16 markers.


Hoped this helped in some way.

The amount of trout y (in tons) caught in a lake from 1995 to 2014 can be modeled by the equation y = -0.08x2 + 1.6x + 10, where
Lapatulllka [165]
For this case, the first thing we want to do is substitute the value of y = 15 in the equation.
 We have then:
 15 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x + 10
 Rewriting we have:
 0 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x + 10 - 15
 0 = -0.08x ^ 2 + 1.6x - 5
 The solutions are:
 x1 = 3.876275643042054
 x2 = 16.123724356957947
 Nearest whole number:
 x1 = 4
 x2 = 16
 were about 15 tons of trout caught in the lake in the years:
 1995 + 4 = 1999
 1995 + 16 = 2011
 Answer:
 The year 1999 and the year 2011
