In the national park, the distance between the base of two cliffs is 312 feet. The angle of elevation from the base of the shorter cliff to the top of the taller cliff is 35 degrees. The angle of elevation from the base of the taller cliff to the top of the shorter cliff is 27 degrees. The tops of the two cliffs are joined by a bridge of length x, as modeled below. What is the length of he bridge, x, to the nearest foot? Show your work and explain how you determined your answer. (Picture provided)

Solve the following system of equations express your answer as an ordered pair in the format (a,b) with no spaces between the numbers of symbols 5x+2y=22

Arrange the steps to solve this system of linear equations in the correct sequence. x + y = -2 2x – 3y = -9 tiles subtract 3x + 3y = -6 (obtained in step 1) from 2x – 3y = -9 (given) to solve for x. substitute the value of x in the first equation (x + y = -2) to get y = 1. the solution for the system of equations is (-3, 1). x = -15 the solution for the system of equations is (-15, 13). add 3x + 3y = -6 (obtained in step 1) to 2x – 3y = -9 (given), and solve for x. x = -3 substitute the value of x in the first equation (x + y = -2) to get y = 13. multiply the first equation by 3: 3(x + y) = 3(-2) 3x + 3y = -6.

Problem number 26 of the rhind papyrus says: find a quantity such that when it is added to of itself the result is a 15. the modern day equation that models this problem is x + x = 15. what is the solution to the equation? x = 10 x = 12 x = 15 x = 30
