Answer:

8.182X10^8 $pounds

a=8.182 and b=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of the Empire State Building =7.3X 10^8 pounds.

Weight of the One World Trade Center building= 88,200,000 pounds.

=8.82 X 10^7

The addition of the two:

=7.3X 10^8+8.82 X 10^7\\$To make it easier to add, express both as powers of 8\\=7.3X 10^8+0.882 X 10^8\\=(7.3+0.882)X10^8\\=8.182X10^8 $ pounds

Comparing with the form: aX10^b

a=8.182 and b=8

A person is standing exactly 36 ft from a telephone pole. There is a 30° angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the po
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

20.78feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The question made us to understand that the man is standing and also there is angle of elevation, then we need to draw a right triangle having a base equal to 36 feet with an angle from the base to the top of the pole which is 30 degrees.

tan= opposite side / adjacent side

Let height of the pole =h

Tan(30)= h/36

But tan 30degree= 1/√3

h= 36 × 1/√3

h= 20.78feet

Therefore, the height of the pole= 20.78feet

What is the volume of a cylinder with base radius 222 and height 666? either enter an exact answer in terms of \piπpi or use 3.1
Leno4ka [110]

In this question, it is given that the base radius is 2 , height is 6 and the value of pi is 3.14 .

And we have to find the volume of the cylinder, and for that, we have to use the following formula

V = \pi r^2 h

Substituting the values of pi,r and h, we will get

V = 3.14(2)^2 * 6 = 75.36 \ cubic \ units

The table shows expressions to represent the number of students involved in different activities. The number of students involve
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

6n + 7 = 7n

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of students involved in sports = 5n + 7

Number of students involved in student council = n

Number of students involved in sports and student council = (5n + 7) + n = 5n + 7 + n = 6n + 7

Number of students involved in band = 3n - 2

Number of students involved in drama club = 2(2n + 1)

Number of students involved in band and drama club = (3n - 2) + 2(2n + 1) = 3n - 2 + 4n + 2 = 7n

Equation to model number of students involved in sports and student council which equal number of students involved in band and drama club:

6n + 7 = 7n

Solve the system of equations. -9Y +4X -20 =0<br> -7Y +16 X -80 =0<br> X=<br> Y=
Fofino [41]

Answer:

X=5, Y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

-9Y +4X -20=0

-7Y+16X-80=0

1. We can multiply the first equation by 4. This will equal to -36Y +16X-80=0.

-36Y +16X -80 =0

-7Y+16X-80=0

2.  We can subtract these two equations.

-36Y +16X -80 =0

-7Y+16X-80=0

We will get -29Y =0. Y=0.

3. Then we can substitute y into the first equation. -9(0) +4x-20 =0. 4x=20. x=5

X=5, Y=0
