Using the slope concept, it is found that the balloon's vertical distance above the ground is of 437.4 feet.
<h3>What is a slope?</h3>
The slope is given by the <u>vertical change divided by the horizontal change</u>, and it's also the tangent of the angle of depression.
In this problem:
- The vertical change is x.
- The horizontal change is of 602 ft.
Hence, applying the concept:
tan (36º) = x/602
x = 602 x tan(36º)
x = 437.4.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms. Like terms have same variable with same power
a) (2xy + 4x) + (15xy - 5x) = <u>2xy + 15xy</u> +<u> 4x - 5x</u>
= 17xy - x
b) (6a + 4b² - 3) + (3b² - 5) = 6a + <u>4b² + 3b²</u> <u>- 3 - 5 </u>
= 6a + 7b² - 8
c) (4x³ - 3x² +4x) + (8x² - 5x ) = 4x³ <u>- 3x² + 8x²</u> <u>+ 4x - 5x</u>
= 4x³ + 5x² - x
d) (7b - 6a + 9y) - (12b + 5a - 2y) =
In subtraction, add the additive inverse of (12b + 5a - 2y)
additive inverse = - 12b - 5a + 2y
(7b - 6a + 9y) - (12b + 5a - 2y) = 7b - 6a + 9y -12b -5a + 2y
= 7b - 12b -6a - 5a + 9y + 2y
= -5b - 11a + 11y
e) (2x² + 7x - 2 + 9y) - (13x + 4x² + 5 - 6y)
Additive inverse of 13x + 4x² + 5 - 6y = -13x + 4x² - 5 + 6y
(2x² + 7x - 2 + 9y) - (13x + 4x² + 5 - 6y)= 2x² + 7x - 2 + 9y -13x - 4x² -5 +6y
= 2x² - 4x² + 7x -13x -2 - 5 + 9y + 6y
= -2x² - 6x - 7 + 15y
To solve this you will need to know the Pythagorean therum A^2+B^2=C^2
24^+B^2=28^2
576+B^2=784
-576. -576
B^2=208
Square root of 208 is about 14.42 and that is the length of the wall
