Ahelicopter hovers at an altitude that is 1000 feet above a mountain of altitude 5210 feet. a second, taller peak is viewed from both the mountaintop and the helicopter. from the helicopter, the angle of depression is 43, and the mountaintop, the angle of depression is 18 degree. how far apart are the mountain peaks? what is the altitude of the taller peak?

the altitude of the taller peak is equal to 5468.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

altitude of the helicopter = 1000 ft

height of the mountain = 5210 ft

Angle of depression from helicopter = 43°

Angle of depression from mountain = 18°

2.87 h = 1000 - h

3.87 h = 1000

h = 258.4 ft

Taller peak =

= 5210+258.4

=  5468.4 ft

the altitude of the taller peak is equal to 5468.4 ft

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)

30 miles

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 60 seconds equals 1 minute and 60 minutes 1 hour

44 ft       60 sec     60 min     158400   ft

  *   *   =

1 sec       1 min       1 hour         hour

we know that there are 5280 ft per mile

158400   ft       1 mile         30 miles

  *   =

1   hour               5280 ft     1 hour

so in 1 hour   it can travel 30 miles
