Answer:

389 feets apart

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Building A

Height = 400feets

Angle of elevation = 70°

Building B:

Height = 300 feets

Angle of elevation = 52°

Distance from the foot of building A to where Jonny is standing = x (see attached picture)

Using trigonometry :

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan 70 = 400/ x

2.7474774x = 400

x = 145.58809 feets

Distance from the foot of building B to where Jonny is standing = y (see attached picture)

Using trigonometry :

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan 52 = 300/ y

1.2799416y = 300

y = 145.59

y = 234.38568 feets

x + y = distance between the two buildings

(145.58809 + 234.38568) feets

= 379.97377

= 380 feets apart

The circle given by
mixer [17]
Typically, the equation of a circle is given like this: (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2, where r is the radius of the circle and the point (h,k) is the center. To find the value k, you need to put the first equation you have into this form. Standard form requires that you only have the1 y variable, as seen in the parentheses, so you first need to complete the square.

x^2 + y^2 - 2y = 11
x^2 + y^2 - 2y +1 = 11 + 1
x^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 12

And that puts the equation in standard form. k = 1.

PLEASE HELPPPPP<br> ITS REALY HARDDD
ki77a [65]

Answer: is C

Step-by-step explanation:

because > means open circle but it closed so its not A)

and its not D because the sign is opposite and

b and c both have the correct sign which shows which

direction the line is moving

so the answer is C because it has 4x and ends at 22 these statement are correct

Hope you understand :)

What's the y-intercept of the equation: 5x+2y=20<br>A. (4,0)<br>B. (5,0)<br>C. (0,2)<br>D. (0,10)​
AveGali [126]
Answer: D. (0,10)

Why:
Your given equation is 5x+2y=20, so in order to find the y-intercept, we must put it in slope-intercept form, a.k.a. y=max+b.

To do this, subtract 5x from both sides. This will then give you 2y=-5x+20.

And to fully simply, divide both sides by 2. Finally, you get y=(-5/2)x+10. And since we know b in slope-intercept form is the y-intercept, and 10 is b in our final function/equation. We get the answer of y-intercept=(0,10)
