Answer:Transform the equation to isolate x: ax = bx + 1. How is the value of x related to the difference of a and b
Step-by-step explanation:
Tanα=h/x, tanß=h/(x+88)
solving both for x
x=h/tanα, x=h/tanß-88, since x=x
h/tanα=h/tanß-88
h/tanß-h/tanα=88
(htanα-htanß)/(tanα*tanß)=88
h(tanα-tanß)/(tanα*tanß)=88
h=88(tanα*tanß)/(tanα-tanß)
Since α=32 and ß=22...
h=88(tan32*tan22)/(tan32-tan22)
h≈85.3 feet
66 minutes is the correct answer
Answer:
<em>3 3/4 feet</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Perimeter of the garden = 20ft
If he wants the length of the garden to be 2 1/2 longer than its width, then;
L = 2 1/2 + W
L is the length
W is the width
Perimeter of the garden = 2(L+W)
P20 = 2(5/2 + W+W)
20 = 5 + 2W+2W
20 - 5 = 4W
15 = 4W
W = 15/4
<em>W = 3 3/4 ft</em>
<em>Hence the width of the garden is 3 3/4 feet</em>
