Answer:
44.81 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
step 1
In the right triangle ACD
Find the length side AC (height of the small fire tower)
---> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)
Solve for AC
step 2
In the right triangle ABE
Find the length side AB
---> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)
solve for AB
step 3
How many feet off the ground is the squirrel?
Subtract the length side segment AB from the length side segment AC
so
Answer: option. y=-1.33x; 2.67
Solution:
If y varies directly with x, the relation between y and x is:
y=kx
where k is a constant of proporcionality.
We know y=8 when x=-6. Replacing these values in the equation above:
8=k(-6)
8=-6k
Solving for k: Dividing both sides of the equation by -6:
8/(-6)=-6k/(-6)
-1.33=k
k=-1.33
Then the relation between y and x is:
y=kx→y=-1.33x
What is the value of y when x=-2?
Replacing x by -2 in the formula:
y=-1.33x→y=-1.33(-2)→y=2.66
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+3y=-24
eq. of any line perpendicular to given line is
3x-4y=a
4y=3x-a
y=3/4x -a/4
where a is an arbitrary constant.
If arctan 4/3 = the tangent of that angle will be 4/3 , opposite 4 over adjacent 3
Now, you only have to take the sin of that angle it's opposite 4 over hypotenuse 5.
You will get that the answer is 4/5
hope this helps
