A boy stands 12 metres from the foot of the building and observes the angle of elevation of the top of the building. The height is of the building is approximately
Answer:
10.07 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the angle of elevation is 40° and the boy is 12 meters from the building.
This means that in order to figure out the height of the building, we must use the tangent function which states that [tex]tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex].
The opposite side in this case is the height of the building in relation to the angle and the adjacent side is the distance the boy is away from the building.
Therefore, we can find the height of the building by plugging in our known information and solving for the opposite side:
[tex]tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]
[tex]tan(40^\circ)=\frac{x}{12}[/tex]
[tex]12tan(40^\circ)=x[/tex]
[tex]x=12tan(40^\circ)[/tex]
[tex]x\approx10.07[/tex]
Therefore, the height of the building is approximately 10.07 meters.
Three men can build a wall in 8 days. How long will it take them if they have the help of 2 boys? Assume that each boy works half as fast as each man.
Uhmm I think around 70 days or 90
I'm not sure
Answer:
6 days
Step-by-step explanation:
1 boy workload = 1/2 1 man workload
2 boys workload = 1/2*2 = 1 man workload
so 3 men + 2 boys workload = 4 men workload
3 men ..... 8 days ... 24man-days to build
4 men ..... x days ... 24man-days to build
x=24/4=6

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form
Answer:
y = -5/6x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have 2 points, (6,0) and (6,1), we can calculate for the slope by using the formula
Slope = m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1) = (1-6)/(6-0) = -5/6
Then plug in m, x(from one of the point), and y(from one of the point) to the equation y = mx + b which get us 0 = -5/6*6+b if we use the point (6,0). Now we'll get b = 6. And then plug in -5/6 for m and 6 for b into the equation y = mx + b we'll get y = -5/6x + 6

if l || m, find the value of x
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
84 = 5x + 9
Subtract 9
75 = 5x
Divide by 5
x = 15
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 9 and 84 are alternate angles and are congruent , so
5x + 9 = 84 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
5x = 75 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 15
A mirror is 24 inches high and 28 inches wide. The center of the mirror will hang 514 feet from the floor on a wall that is 8 feet high. What will be the distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling once the mirror is hung on the wall?.
The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling once the mirror is hung on the wall is 21 inches
The dimension of the mirror is given as:
[tex]Height = 24\ in[/tex]
[tex]Width = 28\ in[/tex]
From the center of the mirror to the floor of the wall, the distance is:
[tex]Distance =5\frac14\ ft[/tex]
So, the distance to the top of the mirror will be:
[tex]Top = 5\frac 14\ ft + \frac 12 \times Height[/tex]
Substitute 24 for height
[tex]Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ \frac 12 \times 24\ in[/tex]
[tex]Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ 12 \ in[/tex]
Convert feet to inches
[tex]Top = 5\frac 14\times 12\ in+ 12 \ in[/tex]
[tex]Top = 63\ in+ 12 \ in[/tex]
[tex]Top = 75 \ in[/tex]
The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling is the difference between the height of the wall and 75 inches.
So, we have:
[tex]Distance = 8\ ft - 75\ in[/tex]
Convert feet to inches
[tex]Distance = 8\times 12\ in - 75\ in[/tex]
[tex]Distance = 96\ in - 75\ in[/tex]
[tex]Distance = 21\ in[/tex]
Hence, the distance is 21 inches

Labor unions arose in the nineteenth century as increasing numbers of Americans took jobs in factories, mines, and mills in the growing industrial economy.
The Knights of Labor, founded in 1869, was the first major labor organization in the United States. The Knights organized unskilled and skilled workers, campaigned for an eight hour workday, and aspired to form a cooperative society in which laborers owned the industries in which they worked.
The Knights’ membership collapsed following the 1886 Haymarket Square riot in Chicago. By 1886 the American Federation of Labor (AFL), an alliance of skilled workers’ trade unions, was growing.

Find the value of x and the indicated angles.
Answer:
x = 19
Indicated angles: 113°
Step-by-step explanation:
We can tell that 6x - 1 is equal to 2x + 75 because they are vertically opposite angles. Now, let's solve.
=> 6x - 1 = 2x + 75=> 6x - 2x = 1 + 75=> 4x = 76=> x = 19Since we have found the required variable, we can now solve the indicated variables.
Given angles:
6(19) - 12(19) + 75Let's solve 6(19) - 1 first.
6(19) - 1=> 114 - 1=> 113Therefore, 6(19) - 1 measures about 108°. Now, let's solve 2(19) + 75
2(19) + 75=> 38 + 75=> 113We can clearly see that both angles are equal (113 = 113) Because of vertically opposite angles.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the required variable is 'x = 19' and when we substitute the variable in both angles, we find that both angles show 113°.

x+2y=0
3x+4y=4
find the solution
Answer:
(x, y) = (4, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficient of y in the second equation is double the coefficient of y in the first. We can subtract twice the first equation from the second to eliminate y.
(3x +4) -2(x +2y) = (4) -2(0)
x = 4 . . . . . . . . . simplify
Substituting into the first equation, we have ...
4 +2y = 0
2 +y = 0 . . . . . . divide by 2
y = -2 . . . . . . . . subtract 2
The solution is (x, y) = (4, -2).

one of the angles of a regular octagon has a measure of (7x-5) What is the value of x?
Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angles of a regular octagon have measures of ...
180° -360°/8 = 135°
We want that equal to the given expression.
7x -5 = 135
7x = 140 . . . . add 5
x = 20 . . . . . divide by 7
The value of x is 20.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Regular octagon means that each angle is 135 degrees, so 135 = (7x - 5).
135 = 7x - 5,
135 + 5 = 7x,
140 = 7x,
140 / 7 = x,
20 = x

Answer:
See answer below.
Step-by-step explanation:
# 3 x = number of boxes
$16 + 13x = Tracy cost
$6 + 14x = Brendan cost
The costs are equal.
16 + 13x = 6 + 14x
10 + 13x = 14x
10 = x
