Distance from base = 305 / tan(29.5deg)
= 539 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The two points can be made into a right triangle with the two sides defined by two lines drawn from the two given points. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the hypotenuse, the distance between the two points. See attached graph.
6^2 + 2^2 = x^2
36 + 4 = x^2
x^2 = 40
x = 6.32
Let there be 2x science and 5x art books
<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>
<span>art books sold = 5x × 0.2 = x </span>
<span>art books unsold = 5x – x = 4x </span>
<span>total books unsold = 1.6x + 4x = 5.6x </span>
<span>5.6x = 2240 </span>
<span>x = 400 </span>
<span>2x science = 800 </span>
<span>and 5x art books = 2000 </span>
I spent a lil time on it but I’ll let you know in a lil but if I have the answer:)
