The definition of the tangent function tells you
tan(angle) = (300 ft) / (distance to mountain)
This equation can be rearranged to
(distance to mountain) = (300 ft) / tan(angle)
For the far end of the river,
distance to far end = (300 ft) / tan(24°) ≈ 673.8 ft
For the near end of the river
distance to near end = (300 ft) / tan(40°) ≈ 357.5 ft
Then the width of the river can be calculated by finding the difference of these distances:
width of river = distance to far end - distance to near end
width of river = 673.8 ft - 357.5 ft
width of river = 316.3 ft
The appropriate answer choice is
316 ft.
Answer: x ≤ 15
Step-by-step explanation: All we need to do is divide both sides by 1/3, so1/3x / 1/3 and 5/ 1/3 = 15. So x ≤ 15.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
a) y=4x-3
b) y=-1/2x+4
c) y=-3x+8
d) y=5/3x-1

Plug in the numbers and solve.
36 divided by 6 is like sharing 36 orranges among 6 people
a a a a a a|---------------------------1st Person
