The support wire is the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed. Therefore, the length of the support wire is 42.2 meters.

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>Right angle triangle</h3>

A right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. The sides and angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.

Therefore, the height of the tower where the wire was attached is the opposite side of the triangle formed.

The wire was attached 30 m from the top. Hence, 65m - 30m = 35 m.

Therefore,

sin 56° = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 56° = 35 / x

The hypotenuse is the length of the support wire.

Therefore,

x = 35 / 0.82903757255

x = 42.2195416164

x = 42.2 m

PLEASE HELP! MUCH APPRECIATED. MATH IS SO HARD :(
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

x+ 7.05 = 45.3

Subtract 7.05 from each side

x+ 7.05-7.05 = 45.3-7.05

x =38.25

Let x be the number

x+3.5 = -4.3

Subtract 3.5 from each side

x+3.5 - 3.5 = -4.3-3.5

x = -7.8

x is the cost of the drawing tablet

x+ 3.95 = 6.94  correct

The second equation add the total cost plus the cost of the drawing tablet  and sets it equal to the cost of the pencils.  This is not correct

6.94+x = 3.95   incorrect

¼ log b x – 2 log b 5 – 10log b y
melamori03 [73]

I will leave out the base, b since it's the same for all these logarithms.

\frac{1}{4} Log(x)-2Log(5)-10Log(y)  \\  \\ Power-Rule \\  \\ Log( x^{ \frac{1}{4} } )-Log( 5^{2} )-Log( y^{10} ) \\  \\ Quotient-Rule \\  \\ Log( x^{ \frac{1}{4} } ) -Log( \frac{25}{ y^{10} } ) \\  \\ Quotient-Rule \\  \\ Log( \frac{ x^{ \frac{1}{4} }  y^{10} }{25} )
