A) Use the trigonometric function and ratio cos(x) = A/H. (Adjacent/Hypotenuse)
1. cos(x) = 135/H
2. H*cos(16°) = 135
3. H = 135/cos(16°)
***Make sure calculator is in degree mode***
4. H = 140.44 ft (rounded to two decimal places)
________

b) Use the function and ratio tan(x) = O/A (Opposite/Adjacent)
1. tan(x) = O/A
2. tan(16°) = O/135
3. 135*tan(16°) = O
4. O = 38.71 ft (two decimal places)

Good luck!

The probability that one would have selected 2 five-dollar bills is; 1/4.

<h3>What is the probability you will have selected 2 five-dollar bills?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the piggy bank contains; 4 one-dollar bills and 4 five-dollar bills to make a total of 8 bills.

Hence, provided the probability events are carried out with replacement, the probability to have selected 2 five-dollar bills is;

Yuliya22 [10]

Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.

Let x represent the number of cookies and y represent the number of brownies.

Since he bought $9 worth of cookies and brownies. Each cookie costs $0.75 and each brownie costs $3. hence:

0.75x + 3y = 9      (1)

Also, he bought twice as many cookies as brownies, hence:

x = 2y

x - 2y = 0     (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives x = 4, y = 2

Hence Jace bought 4 cookies and 2 brownies from the bakery.
