Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's a vertical line the answer is going to be x= which ever number the line is on. In this case x=-2
3y-20+x+13=3x+9
3y-20+x+13+2y=180
3y-7+x=3x+9
3y=2x+16
y=2/3x+16/3
5y+x=187
5(2/3x+16/3)+x=187
10/3x+80/3+x=187
13/3x=481/3
x=37
Y = 3

I just don't want to write all of the steps out -- yey, apathy.
By using what we know about right triangles, we conclude that the height is 11ft.
<h3>
How far is the top of the escalator from the ground floor? </h3>
We can think of this as a right triangle.
Where the length of the escalator is the hypotenuse
We know that the angle of depression is 42.51°, then the top angle of our right triangle is:
90° - 42.51° = 47.49°
Now, the height of the top of the escalator would be the adjacent cathetus to said angle, then we can use the relation:
cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)
Replacing what we know:
cos(47.49°) = height/16ft
cos(47.49°) *16ft = height = 10.8ft
Rounding to the nearest foot, we get:
height = 11ft
