Yes, 1/2 is equivalent to 4/8, because 4/8 reduced to simplest form is 1/2.
Answer:
The distance from both of them = 1463.925 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The building is 964 ft tall . 2 people are standing on the ground directly west of the building. The first person looks up at an angle of 62° to the top of the building while the second person did same at an angle of 26°. The distance between them can be computed below.
The illustration forms a right angle triangle . Using the SOHCAHTOA principle let us find the distance of the second person from the building
tan 26° = opposite/adjacent
tan 26° = 964/adjacent
adjacent tan 26° = 964
adjacent = 964/tan 26°
adjacent = 964/0.48773258856
adjacent = 1976.49290328 ft
The distance from the second person to the building = 1976.493 ft
Distance of the first person to the building
tan 62° = opposite/adjacent
tan 62° = 964/adjacent
adjacent tan 62° = 964
adjacent = 964/tan 62°
adjacent = 964/1.88072646535
adjacent = 512.567892122
distance from the first person to the building = 512.568 ft
The distance from both of them = 1976.493 ft - 512.568 ft = 1463.925 ft
45. X= 2/3x+11/6
46. X=7
47. X=-28/19
48.X=1/2
59. X=-4/3-2y/3
60.X=-1+y/2 or 1+y/2
We can put the two equations together with substitution, and we get
3x + 2y = 30
Now we have a single equation in two variables, so we don't have enough information to solve for both x and y.
