When Adam sights the top of a 10-ft-high statue from 100 ft away, he finds an angle of elevation of 2.3°. When his friend Mark stands in the same location and sights the top of the same statue, he finds an angle of elevation of 2.6°. Assuming both boys measured correctly, which boy is taller? By about how much?

The boiling point of water at an elevation of 0 feet is 212 degrees fahrenheit (°f). for every 1,000 feet of increase in elevation, the boiling point of water decreases by about 2°f. which of the following represents this relationship if b is the boiling point of water at an elevation of e thousand feet? a) e = 2b - 212 b) b = 2e - 212 c) e = -2b + 212 d) b = -2e + 212
