Answer:

119.2 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the ground distance covered, we must find what the values given are for. 40° is the angle that is θ. 100 ft is the altitude, which is the height. We must find the ground distance covered. So we can find using the tan formula:

tanθ = Opposite side ÷ adjacent side

The opposite side is the height and the adjacent side is the ground distance, which we are going to assume as x. So when all values are substituted:

tan 40° = 100 ÷ x

So,

x = 100 ÷ tan 40°

x = 119.2 ft

The school store marks up the price of all items by 30% before selling to
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

$65.325 or $65.33

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking for a percentage in a number, you want to multiply that number by the percentage. Remember that all percentages are to the hundreth power, or 0.00. So if you want to find 30% of 50.25, you multiply it by 0.30 or 0.3. After calculating that you will come up with 15.075 as the percentage. Since the store is marking the price up, you add it to the original price. So your equation is 50.25 + 15.075 =?. After calculating that, you get the answer 65.325. That is only half of your answer though because, when dealing with money, you always round to the nearest hundredth. So when you round 65.325, you get 65.33 which should be the correct answer.

(2x + y)2 – (3x – 2y)2 + (x – 4y)(x + 4y<br>11​
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+ b)² = a² +  b² + 2ab

(2x + y)² = (2x)² + y² + 2*2x *y

             = 4x²  + y² + 4xy

(a- b)² = a² + b² - 2ab

(3x - 2y)² = (3x)² + (2y)² - 2*3x *2y

              = 9x² + 4y² - 12xy

(a - b)(a +b) = a² - b²

(x - 4y(x + 4y) = x² - (4y)²

                     = x² - 16y²

(2x + y)² - (3x - 2y)² + (x - 4y)(x +4y)

  = 4x²  + y² + 4xy - (9x² + 4y² - 12xy) + x² - 16y²

  = 4x²  + y² + 4xy - 9x² - 4y² + 12xy + x² - 16y²

  = 4x² - 9x² + x²  + y² - 4y² - 16y²+ 4xy + 12xy

 =    -4x² - 19y² + 16xy

Using proportions, the expected number of adults in Palm City whose main source of news is the internet or newspaper is of 19,413.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

From the table, the proportion of adults in Palm City whose main source of news is the internet or newspaper is found as follows:

p = (62 + 88)/(62 + 88 + 128 +24 + 38) = 0.4412.

Hence, out of 44,000 adults, the expected number is found as follows:

0.4412 x 44000 = 19,413.
