During the Dallas marathon, a helicopter monitors the racers at a height of 481 feet. The pilot can see the runners that are in first and second place. The angle of elevation from the runner in first place to the helicopter is 45 degrees. The angle of elevation from the runner in second place to the helicopter is 60 degrees. What is the distance between the two runners?

the answer would be 44.79

plz mark brainliest

step-by-step explanation:

let x and 400 - x be the two numbers.  

==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68 from the statement of the problem.  

< ==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68  

==> 340 - 0.05x = 332  

< ==> -0.05x = -8 ==> x = 160, the first number ==> 400 - x = 240, the second number.
