The angle of elevation from me to the top of a hill is 51 degrees. The angle of elevation from me to the top of a tree is 57 deg

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Approximately $101\; \rm ft$ (assuming that the height of the base of the hill is the same as that of the observer.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the diagram attached.

Let $\rm O$ denote the observer.
Let $\rm A$ denote the top of the tree.
Let $\rm R$ denote the base of the tree.
Let $\rm B$ denote the point where line $\rm AR$ (a vertical line) and the horizontal line going through $\rm O$ meets. $\angle \rm B\hat{A}R = 90^\circ$ .

Angles:

Angle of elevation of the base of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
Angle of elevation of the top of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

Let the length of segment $\rm BR$ (vertical distance between the base of the tree and the base of the hill) be $x\; \rm ft$ .

The question is asking for the length of segment $\rm AB$ . Notice that the length of this segment is $\mathrm{AB} = (x + 20)\; \rm ft$ .

The length of segment $\rm OB$ could be represented in two ways:

In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

For example, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ , the length of the side opposite to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ is segment $\rm BR$ . The length of that segment is $x\; \rm ft$ .

$\begin{aligned}\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)} = \frac{\,\rm {BR}\,}{\,\rm {OB}\,} \; \genfrac{}{}{0em}{}{\leftarrow \text{opposite}}{\leftarrow \text{adjacent}}\end{aligned}$ .

Rearrange to find an expression for the length of $\rm OB$ (in $\rm ft$ ) in terms of $x$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{BR}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x}{\tan\left(51^\circ\right)}\approx 0.810\, x\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}A}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x + 20}{\tan\left(57^\circ\right)}\approx 0.649\, (x + 20)\end{aligned}$ .

Equate the right-hand side of these two equations:

$0.810\, x \approx 0.649\, (x + 20)$ .

Solve for $x$ :

$x \approx 81\; \rm ft$ .

Hence, the height of the top of this tree relative to the base of the hill would be $(x + 20)\; {\rm ft}\approx 101\; \rm ft$ .

These marbles are placed in a bag and two

<h3>Answer: 9/100</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

There are 3 pink marbles out of 10 total (we can see that 2 yellow + 3 pink + 5 blue = 10 total)

The fraction 3/10 represents the probability of pulling out a pink marble at random. Since the first one is put back, this means the fraction 3/10 stays the same on the second draw as well.

We use the idea mentioned in the hint to multiply the fractions:

(3/10)*(3/10) = (3*3)/(10*10) = 9/100

The probability of pulling two pink marbles in a row is 9/100, where the first marble is put back.

Effectively, if you were given 100 tries at doing this, you should expect about 9 of those times you get 2 pink marbles in a row.

Answer:

A. 36

B. 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the first equation, we could represent the hot dogs as h(1.75-.50), since they are losing .50 cents for each hot dog, <em>h,</em> they make.

Since they want to know how many hot dogs they have to sell to equal the amount of money they spent, we can represent it as an equal sign.

Now all we have to do is add the constants. Add 12 to our overall equation and subtract 57, since the <u>received</u> $12 in donations and <u>lost</u> $57.

Our equation is 12+h1.75=57+.5h We can just put all of the negative numbers on one side and the positive numbers on the other to find out when they will be equal.

First, subtract 12 from 57.

h1.75=45+.5h

Now subtract .5h from both sides.

h1.25=45

Finally, divide both sides by 1.25.

h=36.

They will have to sell 36 hot dogs.

If they want to sell halve the hotdogs for the same price, simply multiply the current price by 2.

The hotdogs will have to cost $3.5.

Hope this helps!
