Given a fragpole which makes a right angle with the point of observation with the angle of elevation as 50°.
Let x be the height of the flagpole, then
Therefore, the <span>equation that could be used to find the height of the flagpole is
</span><span>x/5 = sin 50</span>
Answer:
(y - 25) = - 0.25(x - 20)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Height of candle after burning for 20 minutes = 25 cm
Height after burning for 1 hr (60 minutes) = 10 cm
Height (y) in cm of candle x minutes after being lit:
Using the equation :
(y - y1) = m(x - x1)
m = (change in y / change in x)
Change in height within 60 minutes :
Height at 20 minutes = 25cm
Height after an hour = 10
Change in height per hour = (25 - 10) = 15cm
Hence, m = change in height per minute
15cm / 60 = 0.25cm ( - 0.25) (decrease in height)
y1 = 25 ; x1 = 20
(y - y1) = m(x - x1)
(y - 25) = - 0.25(x - 20)
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to life the universe and everything is 42
Step-by-step explanation:
You already know that y equals -4. It says that x equals 3, so multiply the -4 by 3 and because it has a negative number and a positive number it will equal -12. Remember anytime you see a letter after a number it means multiply. The complete problem should be -10 because 2 is a whole number you subtract it from -12. Hope that helped you out some.
