Answer:

86.452 m

Step-by-step explanation:

I've attached an image showing the position of the person and the string and the kite.

From the image attached, we can see that the length of the string can be calculated from pythagoras theorem since the triangle is a right angled triangle.

Thus, let length of string be denoted as s.

s = √(65² + 57²)

s = √7474

s ≈ 86.452 m

klio [65]

Answer:

Sarah can have the plumber work on her faucet for six (6) hours maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

As Sarah has only $234.50 in her savings and the plumber charges $50 just to come to her home, so left-over $184.50 of her saving for pay work hours.

Then as the plumber charges $30.75 per hour we have that \frac{\$ 184.50}{\$ 30.75/h}=6h is the maximum amount of hours that Sarah can have the plumber work on her faucet.
