You buy the same number of brushes, rollers, and paint cans. Write an expression in simplest form that represents the total amou

Soloha48 [4]

If you buy ' N ' of each item, then you'll pay 3.99N for brushes,
21.79N for cans of paint, and 6.89N for rollers.

The question assures us that you bought the same number of
each item. So your total bill at the hardware store checkout is

3.99N + 21.79N + 6.89N

= N (3.99 + 21.79 + 6.89)

= 32.67 N .

While sailing, Jacob is 150 feet from a lighthouse. The angle of elevation from his feet on the boat (at sea level) to the top o

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;

Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)

Tan 48° = s ÷ 150

⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°

= 150 × 1.1106

= 166.59

s ≅ 166.6 feet

Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
