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

Step-by-step explanation:

-6 < -2x   -- Divide by -2

3 > x --- The sign flips when dividing in negative numbers.

Since three is greater than x

X is less than 3

meaning

X < 3
