Answer:

30.17feet high

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

the distance from the base of the pole to the tip of the shadow = 49feet (hypotenuse)

angle of elevation = 38°

Required

Height of the flagpole (opposite)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Sin theta = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 38 = H/49

H = 49sin38

H = 49(0.6157)

H = 30.17feet

Hence the flagpole is 30.17feet high

Solve for x:<br> 18x + 3x + 4 - 5 = 5(4x – 9
Luden [163]
Answer:
X= - 44
18x+3x+4-5=5(4x9
Collect like terms
21x+4-5=5(4x-9
More variable to the left hand side and change its sign
21x-20x-1=-45
Correct like terms
X=-45+1
Which is x=-44

The answer and how to do it
inessss [21]
Alright, here is how to do it:
First you are going to want to multiply 4x4. [That is Dino's Charges for 4 Sandwiches.] So once you've done that, you should get 16

Now, you're going to want to multiply 8x4. [That is Carla's charges for 4 Sandwiches.] So once you've done that, you should get 24.

Now, to find the difference you will have to subtract them. 24-16 = 18.
Now that we've done this we now know your answer is:
Carla's sandwiches cost more than Dino's sandwiches. The difference is 18 dollars.
