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

Write an algebraic expression to represent the phrase:
IgorC [24]

Answer:  n/6 - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the vairiable <em>n </em>to represent the unknown number.

Because the question asks ofr the quotient of <em>n </em>and six, we can write the term as n/6

Because the question also asks for 25 less then that term, we can write the whole statement as:  n/6 - 25 .

Therefore, the algebraic expression to represent the phrase Twenty-five less than the quotient of a number and six is n/6 - 25.

Hope this helps and good luck! :D
