Answer:5.455 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the height of watch towers are same(h)

and distance between them is 10 miles

first ranger indicated angle=39^{\circ}

second ranger indicated angle=34^{\circ}

let x be the distance from second ranger to fire

thus \frac{h}{10-x}=tan34

\frac{h}{x}=tan39

equating h values

10tan39=1.48429x

x=5.444  miles

Step-by-step explanation:    chart of values  for y= 5^{x}  

x is the level   y, points possible)

x    y

1     5

2   25

3   125

4    625

5    3125

You can see the exponential pattern

An article reports "sales have grown by 30% this year, to $200 million." What were sales before the growth? An article reports "
zimovet [89]

The amount of sales before growth according to the article is $153.85 million

<h3>How to find sales before growth?</h3>

let

  • Sales before growth = x
  • Percentage growth = 30%
  • New sales = $200 million

200 = x + (30% × x)

200 = x + (0.3 × x)

200 = x + 0.3x

200 = 1.3x

x = 200/1.3

x = 153.846153846153

Approximately,

x = $153.85 million
