Answer:
C, 12,800
Step-by-step explanation:
40 x 320 = 12,800
A construction crew wants to hoist a heavy
beam so that it is standing up straight. They
tie a rope to the beam, secure the base, and
pull the rope through a pulley to raise one
end of the beam from the ground. When
the beam makes an angle of 40 degrees with the
ground, the top of the beam is 8 ft above
the ground.
Th e construction site has some telephone
wires crossing it. Th e workers are
concerned that the beam may hit the wires.
When the beam makes an angle of 60 degrees with
the ground, the wires are 2 ft above the top
of the beam. Will the beam clear the wires
on its way to standing up straight?
<span>Math - Steve Thursday, April 16, 2015 at 6:22pmwe see that the length of the beam is
8/sin40 = 12.45 ft
At 60 degrees, the top is
12.45sin60 = 10.78 ft high
So, the wire is 12.78 ft up.
Since the beam is only 12.45 ft long, it will not touch the wires.</span>
Y= -2+4
If X equals -2, you want to plug -2 in for X.
I hope I helped!

379 * 8 = 3032
3032 lies between 3031 and 3033
