37 = 2/3x - 1
37 + 1 = 2/3x
38 = 2/3x
38 / (2/3) = x
38 * 3/2 = x
114/2 = x
57 = x <=== when complete, the highway will be 57 miles

From a window 20 feet above the ground, the angle of elevation to the top of a building across
Nikitich [7]

Answer: The answer is 381.85 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a window is 20 feet above the ground. From there, the angle of elevation to the top of a building across  the street is 78°, and the angle of depression to the base of the same building is 15°. We are to calculate the height of the building across the street.

This situation is framed very nicely in the attached figure, where

BG = 20 feet, ∠AWB = 78°, ∠WAB = WBG = 15° and AH = height of the bulding across the street = ?

From the right-angled triangle WGB, we have

\dfrac{WG}{WB}=\tan 15^\circ\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{20}{b}=\tan 15^\circ\\\\\\\Rightarrow b=\dfrac{20}{\tan 15^\circ},

and from the right-angled triangle WAB, we have'

\dfrac{AB}{WB}=\tan 78^\circ\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{h}{b}=\tan 15^\circ\\\\\\\Rightarrow h=\tan 78^\circ\times\dfrac{20}{\tan 15^\circ}\\\\\\\Rightarrow h=361.85.

Therefore, AH = AB + BH = h + GB = 361.85+20 = 381.85 feet.

Thus, the height of the building across the street is 381.85 feet.

Melinda bought 6 bowls for $13.20. what was the unit rate in dollars
OlgaM077 [116]
To find the unit rate we will divide the amount of dollars ($13.20) by the amount of bowls (6). Then we will check our work. lets do it:-

13.20 ÷ 6 = 2.20
$2.20 per bowl

CHECK OUR WORK:-

2.20 × 6 = 13.20
we were RIGHT!!

So, the unit rate in dollars for, Melinda bought 6 bowls for $13.20  is, $2.20 per bowl.

Hope I helped ya!! xD
