Applying the tangent ratio, the distance across the suspension bridge is: 499.2 ft.

<h3>What is the Tangent Ratio?</h3>

Where we are given a right triangle, the tangent ratio is determined using the formula, tan ∅ = opposite side/adjacent side.

The diagram atatched beow whos the distance across the suspension bridge which consists of 6 identical right triangles.

Find the adjacent side of each right triangle using the tangent ratio:

∅ = 32

Opposite side = 52 ft

Adjacent side = x

Plug in the values into the tangent ratio:

tan 32 = 52/x

x = 52/tan 32

x = 83.2 ft.

Distance across the suspension bridge = 6(83.2) = 499.2 ft.

Therefore, applying the tangent ratio, the distance across the suspension bridge is: 499.2 ft.

In the following equation, when x=3, what is the value of y? -4x + 3y = 12
deff fn [24]

Answer:

y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3) = -12

to get -12 to 12 you need to add 24 to -12 to make it 12.

so 3 (8) = 24

so -12 + 24 =12
