A traffic camera sits on top of a tower that has a height of 39 ft. The angles of depression of a car on a straight road at the

same level as that of the base of the tower and on the same side of the tower are 31°. Calculate the the distance between the base of the poll and the car. Round to the nearest tenth of a foot. *

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

Write a slope intercept form equation through given points . (18, 14), (-6, -19)

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

y-14=11/8(x-18)

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-19-14)/(-6-18)

m=-33/-24

m=33/24

simplify

m=11/8

y-14=11/8(x-18)

What is the volume of the cylinder?

Elenna [48]

Answer:

Option D. $882\pi\ units^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the cylinder is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2}h$

In this problem we have

$r=7\ units$

$h=18\ units$

substitute

$V=\pi (7^{2})(18)=882\pi\ units^{3}$ -----> exact value of the volume

∣∣x+34∣∣=−11, How do you solve this

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The answer is No Solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is absolute value, we know the answer has to be positive, because distance has to be positive. We see it is negative, and that cannot be, so the answer is no solutions.
