θ = 36.94°
Step-by-step explanation:
Brewster's law for polarization states that; tan(θ_p) = n2/n1
Where ;
θ_p is the polarizing angle
n1 is the index of refraction of first material
n2 is the index of refraction of second material
Now, our first material here is air while second material is water.
Index of refraction of water = 1.33 while index of refraction of air is 1
Thus,
tan(θ_p) = n2/n1 = 1.33/1
tan(θ_p) = 1.33
(θ_p) = tan^(-1)1.33
(θ_p) = 53.06°
Now, polarizing angle is the angle of incidence for which all the reflected light is polarized and it's above the vertical. Thus to get the angle to the horizontal, it will be;
θ = 90° - (θ_p) = 90° - 53.06° = 36.94°

Step-by-step explanation:
Reuben's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee costs Reuben $5.90 per pound, and type B coffee costs $4.05 per pound.
This month's blend used four times as many pounds of type B coffee as type
A, for a total cost of $839.80. How many pounds of type A coffee were used?
$5.90 × A + $4.05B = $839.80
A = 4B
