A firm’s monthly cost for paying cleaners’ wages is $47 250. Under a new pay deal each cleaner earns $375 more each month. If the new pay deal goes through, the firm realises that it will need to reduce the number of cleaners by 3 if it is to cover its costs within the existing budget. What is the monthly salary of a cleaner before the pay rise?

Answer attached in images below.

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
