Step-by-step explanation:

comvert units into one unit

4ft 2in = 4 + 2/12 ft

3ft 4in = 3ft + 4/12ft

Know that the ratio of tan(x) = O / A

and set up proportions

\frac{ba}{ac}  =  \frac{h}{rt}

solve for h

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that the triangles are similar,  which I can't by what is shown in the picture, but I'm guessing that there are more instructions off screen , that say they are.

' = feet

" = inches

h / 20' = 4'-2" / 3'-4"

just use inches for this,  it's easier

h / 240" = 50" / 40"

h = 240 ( 50 / 40 )

h = 300"

h = 25'

Answer:

20x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:

34- 4x + 12x -12 +12x

step 1: 34 - 12 = 22

now you have left: -4x + 12x +12x

step 2: 12x +12x = 24x

step 3: 24x - 4x = 20x

Now you will combine the two answers you got: 20x +22

Hope this helps :)

Carl used 10 2/9 an inch of string to tie a parcel and another 5 1/4 of an inch of string to tie a box, how much string is left
NARA [144]

Answer:

20-(10 2/9)-(5 1/4)= 4.52777777778 inches decimal or 163/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

20 - (10 + 2/9) - (5 + 1/4)

Put 10 + 2/9 over the common denominator 9. 10 + 2/9 = (9×10)/9 + 2/9:

20 - (9×10)/9 + 2/9 - (5 + 1/4)

9×10 = 90:

20 - (90/9 + 2/9) - (5 + 1/4)

90/9 + 2/9 = (90 + 2)/9:

20 - (90 + 2)/9 - (5 + 1/4)

90 + 2 = 92:

20 - 92/9 - (5 + 1/4)

Put 5 + 1/4 over the common denominator 4. 5 + 1/4 = (4×5)/4 + 1/4:

20 - 92/9 - (4×5)/4 + 1/4

4×5 = 20:

20 - 92/9 - (20/4 + 1/4)

20/4 + 1/4 = (20 + 1)/4:

20 - 92/9 - (20 + 1)/4

20 + 1 = 21:

20 - 92/9 - 21/4

Put 20 - 92/9 - 21/4 over the common denominator 36. 20 - 92/9 - 21/4 = (36×20)/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36:

(36×20)/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36

720/36 + (4 (-92))/36 + (9 (-21))/36

4 (-92) = -368:

720/36 + (-368)/36 + (9 (-21))/36

9 (-21) = -189:

720/36 - 368/36 + (-189)/36

720/36 - 368/36 - 189/36 = (720 - 368 - 189)/36:

(720 - 368 - 189)/36

720 - 368 - 189 = 720 - (368 + 189):

(720 - (368 + 189))/36

find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point. y=sqrt(x) (1,1) Ive never been good with these equations a
Nady [450]
Equation of a tangent line of a curve is:
y- y0 = f´ (x0) (x - x0 ).   In this case: x0=1, y0=1
f´(x)=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x} }(Derivation)
f´(x0)=\frac{1}{2}
y - 1 = 1/2 ( x - 1 )
y - 1 = 1/2 x - 1/2
y = 1/2 x - 1/2 + 1
y =\frac{1}{2}x+ \frac{1}{2}
