Answer:
x=72
Step-by-step explanation:
The shortest side is 8 cm and it = 99 km.
The longest side is 15 cm.
divide 15 by 8 and then multiply by 99
15 / 8 = 1.875
1.875 x 99 = 185.625 Rounds to 185.6.
The answer is C.
This is the concept of trigonometry, we are required to calculate the number of floors the building has given the information above;
# floors=[height of the building]/[height of each floor]
height of each floor=17 ft
let the height of the building be,h.
h is given by;
tan theta=opposite/adjacent
theta=80
opposite=h
adjacent=75 ft
thus
tan 80=h/75
h=75 tan 80
h=425.35 ft
thus the number of floors will be:
425.35/17
=25.020≈25 floors
2*10^6 + 6*10^5 + 3*10^3 +9*10^1 +4*10^0
see expanded form is adding the digits together. and it would be what ever one number is times 10 to the power of how many digits are after that number. you skip the 0's though. hope this helps
