Answer:

The distance is 5.20m

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the height of the ladder

To get this, we need to understand that we have a right triangle, with the base of the triangle as 3 m, the angle at the downward part is 60, and we want to get the height of the triangle

The angle here faces the height we want to calculate

This height is known as the opposite

What we have is the adjacent

Now, the trigonometric identity that relates the opposite and the adjacent is the tan

The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the opposite to the adjacent

Mathematically;

tan 60 = h/3

h = 3 tan 60

h = 5.20 m

The ladder is at a height of 5.20 m above the ground

Using a savings amount of $450, assume you deposited the total amount
ankoles [38]

Answer:

<h2> 7.3%</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the simple interest to get the rate of return;

Simple Interest = Principal * Rate * Time/100

Given Principal = $450,

Time (in years) = 1 year

Simple interest = $32.75

Rate (in %) =?

Substituting the given values in the given formula to get the rate;

32.75 = 450*1*R/100

450R = 3275

R = 3,275/450

R = 7.3%

The rate of return is  7.3%

Blank 1: If y is -5 when x is 2, that means the equation here is y = -2.5x. So, if x is 8, that makes the equation y = -2.5(8), which gives you -20.

Blank 2: If y is 3 when x is 1, the equation will be y = 3x. If x is 2, that will give you y = 3(2), which is 6.

Blank 3: If y is -7 when x is -21, the equation will be x = 3y. If y is 9, that will give you x = 3(9), which is 27.

Blank 4: If y is 5 when x is 4, the equation will be y = 1.25x. If y is 18, that makes the equation 18 = 1.25x, which is 14.4.


I hope this all helped!

Find y from the picture plz ​
Xelga [282]

It's a six sided polygon.  For any polygon the external angles add to 360 degrees.  The internal angles shown are the supplements of the external angles.   We have

(180 - θ₁) + (180 - θ₂) + ... + (180 - θ₆) = 360

6(180) - 360 = θ₁ + θ₂ + θ₃ + θ₄ + θ₅ + θ₆

720 = θ₁ + θ₂ + θ₃ + θ₄ + θ₅ + θ₆

The six angles add up to 720 degrees, and five of them add to

126+101+135+147+96=605

So y = 720 - 605 = 115

The degree sign is external to y so not part of the answer:

Answer: 115
