At a point 30 feet from the base of a tree, the angle formed with the ground looking to
the top measures 53. Find, to the nearest foot, the height of the tree.

Can someone help me?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

40 feet to the nearest foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tree , the distance from the base of the tree on the ground (30 ft) and the distance from this point to the top of the tree form a right triangle.

So if the height of the tree is h:

tan 53 = h / 30

h = 30 tan53

h = 39.81 feet.

Answers

Answer: 29.5 points

Why: the missed 14 shots so 14 x 3/4 is 10.5

He can buy 2857 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the amount he can buy, you need to divide 1,000/.35. This equals 2857.14 but because you cannot buy .14 of a toy car, you round down to 2857 which is the end answer. Hope this helps :)

4 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Total miles = 1/2

Time taken = 1/8

Miles per hour = 1/2 ÷ 1/8

= 1/2 × 8/1

= 8/2

= 4 miles per hour

Bryan’s mile per hour = 4

Matrices C and D are shown below C= 2 1 0 0 3 4 0 2 1 D= a b -0.4 0 -0.2 0.8 0 0.4 -0.6 what values of a and b will make the equation CD = l true?

Answers

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question

Matrices C and D are shown below:

[tex]C=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&1&0\\0&3&4\\0&2&1\end{array}\right][/tex]     [tex]D=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b&-0.4\\0&-0.2&0.8\\0&0.4&-0.6\end{array}\right][/tex]

What values of a and b will make the equation CD = I true?

(i) a = 0.5

  b = 0.1

(ii) a = 0.1

    b = 0.5

(iii) a = -0.5

    b = -0.1

Answer: (i) a = 0.5

                  b = 0.1

Step-by-step explanation: Identity Matrix (I) is a n x n square matrix with the number 1 on the main diagonal and 0 everywhere else.

The question asks for multiplication of matrices, i.e.:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&1&0\\0&3&4\\0&2&1\end{array}\right][/tex]  .   [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b&-0.4\\0&-0.2&0.8\\0&0.4&-0.6\end{array}\right][/tex] = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right][/tex]

To multiply matrices, the number of columns of the 1st matrix must be the same as the number of rows of the 2nd.

Matrix C is a 3x3 square matrix and so is matrix D, so, values of a and b:

[tex]2a=1[/tex]                           [tex]2b-0.2=0[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]                            [tex]2b=0.2[/tex]

a = 0.5                          [tex]b=0.1[/tex]

For the equation CD=I be true, a and b has to be 0.5 and 0.1, respectively.

Expand and simplify ([tex]2x^{2}[/tex]+3)(4x+5)-8x([tex]x^{2}[/tex]-2)

Answers

Answer:

2x(5x + 14) + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: (2[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 3)(4x + 5) - 8x([tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 2)

(2[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 3)(4x + 5) - 8x([tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 2) = 2[tex]x^{2}[/tex](4x + 5) + 3(4x + 5) - 8x([tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 2)

                              = (8[tex]x^{3}[/tex] + 10[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 12x + 15) - 8[tex]x^{3}[/tex] + 16x

                              = 8[tex]x^{3}[/tex] + 10[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 12x + 15 - 8[tex]x^{3}[/tex] + 16x

collecting like terms to have,

8[tex]x^{3}[/tex]- 8[tex]x^{3}[/tex] + 10[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 12x + 16x + 15

10[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 28x + 15

Thus,

(2[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 3)(4x + 5) - 8x([tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 2) = 10[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 28x + 15

You drive a car that runs on ethanol and gas. You have a 20 gallon tank to fill and you can buy fuel that is either 25% or 85% ethanol. How much of each fuel should you buy to have 50% ethanol in the tank? Will give brainliest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

11.67 gallons of 25% and 8.33 gallons of 85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of 25% ethanol be x, then volume of 85% ethanol will be (20 - x)

The ethanol content is:

0.25x + 0.85(20 - x) = 20*0.50.25x + 17 - 0.85x = 10-0.6x = 10 - 17-0.6x = -7x = 7/0.6x = 11.67

11.67 gallons of 25% ethanol and

20 - 11.67 = 8.33 gallons of 85% ethanol

2x+y=17

-2x on both sides so you can leave the y alone.

y=-2x+17 should be the answer. Hope this helps!
