Look up the law of sines, I suggest Khan Academy. It is better if you know how to do it, it is very useful.
Base height + statue height = total height
Total height = 305
statue height = 111
base height + 111 = 305
Subtract both sides by 111
base height = 194
The height of the base is 194 feet.
Have an awesome day! :)
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
(40-10)/7
The maximum amount of money she wants to spend is $40
Her adult ticket costs $10
She will pay for the children’s tickets with the remaining money
Each child’s ticket costs $7
To find the number of children she can take we need to use this expression (40-10)/7
Mrs Herñàndez can take 4 children
