1 7/11 = 18/11
2 5/6 = 17/6
Product = 18/11 * 17/6
= 306 / 66 = 51/11 = 4 7/11 Answer
Answer:
a) 52.5 ft. b)40.1ft c)12.5ft d) 72.6
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The height of the lighthouse is 84ft, and the angle of elevation is 58 degrees.
tan58=84/x
find x by dividing 84 by tan58, and you get 52.5ft.
b) do the same thing, except 131 is in the base of the right triangle shape. That being said, do tan17=x/131.
multiply 131 by tan17, and you get x=40.1 feet.
c) This question wants you to find the length of the slide, (basically the hypotenuse).
given the angle to be 46, do sin46=9/x
since sin is opp/hyp
9/sin46= 12.5ft
d) Find the angle of elevation by using inverse tan given the base to be 5, and the height to be 16ft.
tan^-1=(16/5)=theta
x=72.6 hope this helps!
Answer:
3 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 13
3 ≤ x ≤ 13

Answer:
30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
time = distance/speed
If x represents Jane's speed along the summit then her total exploration time is ...
12/x + 40/(x -5) = 2 . . . . . hours
Multiplying by (x)(x -5), we get ...
12(x -5) +40(x) = 2(x)(x -5)
Dividing by 2 and subtracting the left side gives ...
x^2 -31x +30 = 0
(x -30)(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions are x = 30 and x = 1, values of x that make the factors zero. A speed of 1 mph makes no sense in this problem, so ...
Jane's speed along the summit was 30 mph.
