Use Pythagorean thrm
17^2+10^2=21^2
289+100=441
389≠441
This is not a right triangle
AA = $1
AAA= $0.75
AA + AAA = 42
$1AA + $0.75AAA= $37
AA + AAA = 42
AA + AAA-AAA= 42- AAA
AA = 42- AAA
$1(42- AAA) + $0.75AAA= $37
$42 - AAA +0.75AAA = $37
$42 -0.25AAA= $37
$42-$42 -0.25AAA= $37 -$42
-0.25AAA= -5
-0.25AAA/-0.25 = -5/-0.25
AAA= 20
AA + AAA= 42
AA + 20 = 42
AA +20 -20 = 42-20
AA= 22
Check
$1AA + $0.75AAA= $37
$1(22)+ $0.75(20)= $37
$22 + $15 =$37
$37 = $37
Answer:
The rock formation is approximately 7 feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>We can visualize this situation as a triangle and know that the bottom side is </em><em>10</em><em> and the angle of elevation (the angle created by Mike and the ground, looking to the top of a rock). With this information, we can use tangent to solve.</em>
<em>x = the height of the rock formation</em>
tan(22°) = x/10
10 tan(22°) = x
x = ~4.04 feet
<em>We also have to add the </em><em>3 feet</em><em> to it because it is being measured 3 feet above the floor.</em>
x + 3 = 7.04 feet
Gas mileage = 30.5 mi/gal
Volume of gas = 1.5 l
Note that 1 liter = 0.264172 gallons
Therefore
1.5 l = (1.5 l)*(0.264172 gal/l) = 0.3963 gal
Distance traveled is (Gas mileage, mi/gal)*(Gal of gas)
= (30.5)(0.3963) = 12.087 mi
Answer: 12 mi (nearest integer)
Your answer is d, or the fourth option! hope this helped!
