POSSIBLE POINTS: 1.23 A hot air balloon is tied to the ground with a 75 foot length rope. As the balloon rises the wind blows it to the east until the
rope is tight. Someone in the balloon drops a sandbag that falls straight down to the ground. The sandbag hits the ground 32
feet from where the rope meets the ground. How high above the ground was the basket of the balloon when the bag was
dropped? Draw a picture, show work, and round to the nearest tenth of a foot.

step-by-step explanation:

do 6-10=

if u need it to be negative.

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
