Answer:
a. 80.83 ft b. 40.42 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h = height of pole = 70 ft, L = length of cable and x = distance of cable on ground to pole and Ф = angle between cable and ground.
a) How long is the cable?
Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and L being the hypotenuse side, by trigonometric ratios,
sinФ = h/L
L = h/sinФ
L = 70 ft/sin60°
L = 70 ft/0.8660
L = 80.83 ft
b) How far from the pole should the cable be attached to the ground?
Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and x being the adjacent side, by trigonometric ratios,
tanФ = h/x
x = h/tanФ
x = 70 ft/tan60°
x = 70 ft/1.7321
x = 40.42 ft
Answer:
1) There were 120 customers per night when the restaurant opened
2) y = -2x + 24
Step-by-step explanation:
1) x represents the # of months since a restaurant opened, and y represents the average number of nightly customers.
y=mx+b
120 is <em>b</em> in this situation, which is the y-intercept of the line. This means that 120 is the starting number of customers when the restaurant first opened.
The answer is 84. Your Welcome!
Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
x/4+16=-32
-32+16= -16
x/4=-16
-16/4= -4
x= -4
