Answer:

Height of the kite = 36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle attached in the figure shows the complete picture,

I am sitting at point A, string connecting the kite and me is side AC, height of the kite from the ground is side BC and side AB representing the distance between me and the kite.

Length of side BC = h

Length of side AC = 39 feet

Length of side AB = 15 feet

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

AC² = AB² + BC²

(39)² = (15)² + h²

h² = 1521 - 225

h² = 1296

h = √1296

h = 36 feet

Therefore, kite is at 36 feet height.

<span>2. A pool company is trying out several new drains. Drain A empties a pool at a rate of 2 gal/min. Drain B empties a pool at a rate of 5 gal/min. One pool has 108 gal of water in it. Write an equation for each drain that shows the amount of time it takes to empty the pool. Then solve each equation showing your work.</span>

Drain A: rate is 2 gal/min. We do not know which pool has 108 gallons of water in it. If it's Pool A, then the time required to empty Pool A is

108 gallons
------------------- = 54 minutes
2 gallons/min

If it's Pool B, then we can represent the amount of water in Pool B by b. Then the time required to empty Pool B is

b (gallons)
------------------ = (b/5) minutes
5 gallons/min
