Answer:

8.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use trigonometry. The ladder and the building form a right triangle with the ground. You are given the length of the hypotenuse and the base angle. You use sine since we are trying to figure out the opposite side from the angle and we have the hypotenuse length. Sin = opposite/hypotenuse. So in this case, sin 60°= x/10. We solve for x by multiplying both sides by 10. Now x= sin 60° (10) = (0.8660)(10) = 8.7 m.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

(a) 720 ways

(b) 120 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Word = DANCER$

$n =6$ --- number of letters

Solving (a): Number of arrangements.

We have:

$n =6$

So, the number of arrangements is calculated as:

$Total =n!$

This gives:

$Total =6!$

This gives:

$Total =6*5*4*3*2*1$

$Total =720$

Solving (b): DA as a unit

DA as a unit implies that, we have:

[DA] N C E R

So, we have:

$n = 5$

So, the number of arrangements is calculated as:

$Total =n!$

This gives:

$Total =5!$

This gives:

$Total =5*4*3*2*1$

$Total =120$

Solving (c): NCE as a unit

NCE as a unit implies that, we have:

D A [NCE] R

So, we have:

$n = 4$

So, the number of arrangements is calculated as:

$Total =n!$

This gives:

$Total =4!$

This gives:

$Total =4*3*2*1$

$Total =24$

There are 127 lbs of fruits in the store: apples, oranges, and peaches. There are four times as many apples as there are peaches

Pepsi [2]

Let
x------> amount of pounds of apples
y------> amount of pounds of oranges
z-----> amount of pounds of peaches

we know that
x+y+z=127------> equation 1
x=4z-----> equation 2
y=7+z----> equation 3

substitute equation 2 and equation 3 in equation 1
x+y+z=127----> (4z)+(7+z)+z=127---> 6z=127-7---> 6z=120----> z=20 lb
x=4z---> x=4*20----> x=80 lb
y=7+z----> y=7+20---> y=27 lb

amount of pounds of apples----> 80 lb
amount of pounds of oranges----> 27 lb
amount of pounds of peaches---> 20 lb
