Step-by-step explanation:
2 right triangles are formed.
x is the angle btw wire and grnd
tan x = 10/5 = 2
tanx = ht of tower/(5+14)
2 = tower ht/19
tower ht = 38
length of wire =
Answer:
42 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: principal = $16.00
Step-by-step explanation:
P = A / (1 + rt)
P = 20 / (1+.05 x 5)
P = 20 / (1.25)
P = 16
-x + 5y = 8
multiply this equation by 3
-3x + 15y = 24
now add it to the other equation ( elimination)
-3x + 15y = 24
3x + 7y = -2
-----------------------
0x + 22 y = 22
divide each side by 22
y =1
substitute into -x + 5y =8 to find x
-x + 5(1) = 8
-x + 5 = 8
-x =3
divide by -1
x =-3
Answer (-3,1)
