X=5

You move like terms> -3x -2x = -1 - 24
Collect like terms> -5x = - 25
Then divide both sides> -5 = -25

A helicopter is flying above a town. the local high school is directly to the east of the helicopter at a 20° angle of depressio
guapka [62]
Answer: 4.5 miles

Explanation:

When you draw the situation you find two triangles.

1) Triangle to the east of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from the high school to the helicopter = depression angle from the helicopter to the high school = 20°

b) hypotensue = distance between the high school and the helicopter

c) opposite-leg to angle 20° = heigth of the helicopter

d) adyacent leg to the angle 20° = horizontal distance between the high school and the helicopter = x

2) triangle to the west of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from elementary school to the helicopter = depression angle from helicopter to the elementary school = 62°

b)  distance between the helicopter and the elementary school = hypotenuse

c) opposite-leg to angle 62° = height of the helicopter

d) adyacent-leg to angle 62° = horizontal distance between the elementary school and the helicopter = 5 - x

3) tangent ratios

a) triangle with the helicpoter and the high school

tan 20° = Height / x ⇒ height = x tan 20°

b) triangle with the helicopter and the elementary school

tan 62° = Height / (5 - x) ⇒ height = (5 - x) tan 62°

c) equal the height from both triangles:

x tan 20° = (5 - x) tan 62°

x tan 20° = 5 tan 62° - x tan 62°

x tan 20° + x tan 62° = 5 tan 62°

x  (tan 20° + tan 62°) = 5 tan 62°

⇒ x = 5 tant 62° / ( tan 20° + tan 62°)

⇒ x = 4,19 miles

=> height = x tan 20° = 4,19 tan 20° = 1,525 miles

4) Calculate the hypotenuse of this triangle:

hipotenuese ² = x² + height ² = (4.19)² + (1.525)² = 19.88 miles²

hipotenuse = 4.46 miles

Rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5 miles

That is the distance between the helicopter and the high school.

WHAT IS THE MEASURE OF ANGLE F?
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Hello! answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 56 because... 56 - 31 = 25 56 + 43 = 99 and x = 56 so 56 + 25 + 99 = 180 Hope that helps!

Width = (b - a)/n = (8 - 0)/4 = 2
Nookie1986 [14]
Yes, I'm getting C also!

Since it's asking for the left-endpoint Riemann Sum, you will only be using the top left point as the height for each of your four boxes, making -1, -2.5, -1.5, and -0.5 your heights. The bases are all the same length of 2. You don't include f(8) because you're not using right-endpoints, and that would also add another 5th box that isn't included in the 0 to 8 range.

Pls helpppppppppppppp
OLEGan [10]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The following steps to solve equation given by join are shown below including the property of numbers applied for each reasons:

4(2a + 3) = -3(a - 1) + 31 - 11a ----› Given

Apply the distributive property to open the parentheses

4*2a + 4*3 = -3*a -3*-1 + 31 - 11a

8a + 12 = -3a + 3 + 31 - 11a ----› Distributive property

Combine like terms together

8a + 12 = 3 + 31 -3a - 11a

8a + 12 = 34 - 14a ---› Combining like terms

Add 14a to both sides

8a + 12 + 14a = 34 - 14a + 14a

22a + 12 = 34 ----› Addition property

Subtract 12 from both sides

22a + 12 - 12 = 34 - 12

22a = 22 ----› subtraction property of equality

Divide both sides by 22

22a/22 = 22/22

a = 1 ----› Division property of Equality

The table summarizes the scoring of a football game between Team A and Team B. A touchdown (TD) is worth 6 points, a field goal
Anit [1.1K]
If you would like to find the final score, you can do this using the following steps:

Team A: 6 points * 3 + 3 points * 2 + 2 points * 1 + 1 point * 0 = 6 * 3 + 3 * 2 + 2 * 1 + 1 * 0 = 18 + 6 + 2 + 0 = 26 points
Team B: 6 points * 4 + 3 points * 4 + 2 points * 1 + 1 point * 2 = 6 * 4 + 3 * 4 + 2 * 1 + 1 * 2 = 24 + 12 + 2 + 2 = 40 points

The final score of team A is 26 points and the final score of team B is 40 points.
