Which equation could be used to find the height of the flagpole?

1 answer:

6 0

Given a fragpole which makes a right angle with the point of observation with the angle of elevation as 50°.

Let x be the height of the flagpole, then

$\sin50^o= \frac{x}{5}$

Therefore, the equation that could be used to find the height of the flagpole is
x/5 = sin 50

Write the equation of the line that includes the point (1,5) and has a slope of 3 in standard form.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

-3x + y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is 3. So the coefficient of x is 3.

when x = 1, y = 5.

So 3*1 + c = 5

So c is 2.

So y = 3x + 2

Therefore, taking 3x to the LHS, we get,

-3x + y = 2

Hope it helps ;)

Gwendolyn is asked to solve the equation -4(x-3) = 20. She shows the work below and states that the solution is x=-8

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x-3) = 20

-4x + 12 = 20

^ Here, Glendon added 12 to 20 instead of subtracting. Her equation was not balanced.

-4x = 8

x = -2
