Based on the information the cost of the product is $40,000.

Given:

Percentage earn=5% or 0.05

Amount earned=$2,000

Let x represent the cost of the product

Hence:

Formulate

.05x = $2000

Divide both sides by .05

x=$2,000/.05

x=$40,000

Inconclusion the cost of the product is $40,000.

Use the distributive property to find an expression that is equivalent to <br> 2x(x + 7)-(3x +1)

zaharov [31]

Given expression:

2x(x + 7)-(3x +1);

To distribute implies to spread a process equally in an expression. Often times, the distributive property is used for expressions inside parentheses;

2x(x + 7)-(3x +1)

Distribute 2x over the first parentheses;

the negative sign distributes over the second part

= (2x² + 14x) - 3x -1

= 2x² + 14x -3x -1

Add like terms;

= 2x² + 11x -1

This expression 2x² + 11x -1 is equal to the given one

A plane is flying 3900 m above the ground level. The angle of elevation from the control tower to the plane is

Tcecarenko [31]

The horizontal distance to the control tower is approximately 18506.83m

Data;

distance from the ground = 3900m
angle of elevation = 11.4 degrees
horizontal distance = ?

<h3>Trigonometric Ratio</h3>

To solve this problem, we need to use trigonometric ratio SOHCAHTOA.

In this case, we have the value of opposite and angle and we need to find the adjacent to the angle. The tangent of the angle would be perfect for this.

$tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan11.4 = \frac{3900}{x}\\x = \frac{3900}{tan11.4}\\ x = 18506.83m$
