Answer:

48ft

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <u>Distance of car A from the tower</u>
  • Consider ∆ACD tan25 = 50/AC AC  = 50/tan25 = 50/0.4663 = 107.2 ft
  • <u>Distance of car B from the tower</u>
  • Consider ∆BCD tan40 = 50/BC AC  = 50/tan40 = 50/0.8391 = 59.6 ft

  • <u>Distance from cars A and B</u> AB = AC – BC = 107.2 – 59.6 = 48 ft The distance between the two cars is 48ft

solve the following and explain your steps. Leave your answer in base-exponent form. (3^-2*4^-5*5^0)^-3(4^-4 over 3^3)*3^3 Pleas
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

  3^64^{11}

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears you're trying to simplify ...

  (3^{-2}4^{-5}5^0)^{-3}\cdot\dfrac{4^{-4}}{3^3}\cdot 3^3

The final factor cancels the denominator of the fraction, so we have ...

  3^{(-2)(-3)}4^{(-5)(-3)-4}=3^64^{11}

_____

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (ab)^c = (a^c)(b^c)

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)
