Answer:

3293 ft to nearest tenth = side

Step-by-step explanation:

To find altitude this is the same in trigonometry as finding the side and we use calculation below in finding the hypotenuse which is same term as side for the angle of depression just to double check that height (altitude is less than slope in calculation).

sin (32) = 0.9271838546

3600/0.9271838546 = 3882.725074

= 3883 ft to nearest tenth. = slope

Then cos (32)x3882.725074 = 3292.737608

= 3293 ft to nearest tenth = side

Solve for x. <br> 4- (2x + 4)=5<br><br> A. x = -10<br> B. x = 6<br> C. x = 3/2<br> D. x = -5/2
horsena [70]

Answer:

x = (-5/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - (2x + 4) = 5

-4 from both sides

- (2x + 4) = 1

divide both sides by -1

2x + 4 = -1

-4 from both sides

2x = -5

divide both sides by 2

x = (-5/2)

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

(-10, 10) and (0,10).

Step-by-step explanation:

For a point to be a solution to the system of inequalities, you will need to see which of the points falls into the shaded area.

When we test out each of the points, we can see that only:

(-10, 10) and (0,10) fall into the blue-shaded area.
