I would solve this using tangents. Let h be height of flagpole.
Set up 2 right triangles, each with a base of 40.
The larger triangle has height of "h+70"
Smaller triangle has height of 70.
Now write the tangent ratios:
Note: A-B = 9
To solve for h we need to use the "Difference Angle" formula for Tangent
Plug in what we know:
Answer:
n = 5.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
-20.8 = -4n
We divide both sides of the equation by -4:
-20.8 / -4 = -4n/-4
5.2 = n (answer).
The answer is:
110in²
Hope this Helps!.
For this case we have to:
x: Let the variable representing the unknown number
We algebraically rewrite the given expression:
Twice a number plus 10, is represented as:
Three times that number less 4. is represented as:
Thus, the complete expression is:
Subtracting 3x from both sides of the inequality:
Subtracting 10 from both sides of the inequality:
Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed:
We multiply by -1 on both sides, taking into account that the sense of inequality changes:
The solution is given by all values of "x" less than 14.
Answer:
On the y-axis.
Hope this helps!!
