You are standing 186 feet away from the base of a building and your clinometer
measures 23° when it's looking at the top of the building. (This angle is the one between
the ground and the top of the building). Please calculate the height of the building.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  about 79 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

In this scenario, the angle is 23°, the adjacent side is the distance to the building, and the opposite side is the building height. Then we have ...

  height = tan(23°)·(186 ft) ≈ 78.95 ft ≈ 79 ft

Answers

Answer: y=80/5x+80

Step-by-step explanation:

At one point graph goes from (0,400) to (25,800). So the y intercept is 400 because that’s where the line was at x=0. 0 to 25 is 25. 400 to 800 is 400. So the equation would be y=400/25x+400. But you can divide all of it by 5 to get y=80/5x+80.

Find the missing side of triangle

Answers

Final Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

we'll be using the pythagorean theorem method, in this triangle the missing letter is a.

formula: [tex]a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2}[/tex]

a = x

b = 21

c = 29

a = [tex]\sqrt{29^2-21^2}[/tex]

a = [tex]\sqrt{841-441}[/tex]     (note: 29² = 29 × 29 = 841 and 21² = 21 × 21 = 441)

a = [tex]\sqrt{400}[/tex]

a = 20

x = 20

When leaving a town, a car accelerates from 30 kmh-1 to 60 kmh-1 in 5 s. Assuming the
acceleration is constant, find the distance travelled in this time.
A. 6 m
B. 62.5 m
C. 41.7 m
D. 20.8 m

Answers

Answer:

B .62.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

convert Kmh-1 in to ms-1

30 Kmh-1 = (30×1000) ÷3600 = 8.3ms-1

60 Kmh-1 = (60×1000) ÷3600 = 16.6 ms-1

acceleration = (16.6 - 8.3) ÷ 5 = 1.66 ms-2

V^2 = U^2 +2aS

(16.6)^2 = (8.3)^2 + 2×1.66 ×S

S = 62.5 m

I did it wrong can someone help me

Answers

Answer:

Width = 4 cm

Length = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let [tex]l[/tex] be equal to the length of the rectangle.

Let [tex]w[/tex] be equal to the width of the rectangle.

1) Determine equations to find the length and width

We're given that the length is two times the length of the width:

[tex]l=2w[/tex]

We're also given that the area of the rectangle is 32 cm². Recall that the area of a rectangle is [tex]A=lw[/tex]:

[tex]A=lw\\32=lw[/tex]

Now, we have our two equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \left \{ {{l=2w} \atop {32=lw}} \right.[/tex]

2) Solve for the width using substitution

[tex]\displaystyle \left \{ {{l=2w} \atop {32=lw}} \right.[/tex]

Replace [tex]l[/tex] in the second equation with [tex]2w[/tex] from the first equation:

[tex]32=(2w)w\\32=2w^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate w²:

[tex]16=w^2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides to isolate w:

[tex]\pm4=w[/tex]

Because width cannot be negative, w=4. Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 4 cm.

3) Solve for the length

[tex]\displaystyle \left \{ {{l=2w} \atop {32=lw}} \right.[/tex]

Now, that we have the width (4 cm), we can solve for the length by plugging it back into one of the equations. Either of the equations work, but we can use the first:

[tex]l=2w\\l=2(4)\\l=8[/tex]

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 8 cm.

3) Draw the rectangle

We can use what you had before as a foundation. You drew a rectangle with width 4 cm and length 7 cm. To draw the correct rectangle, add another row on top to make it 4 cm by 8 cm.

The question given is incomplete as the information about the headphones isn't given.

However, we can solve the problem by using hypothetical values.

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Write the ratio of detective headphones to total headphones in the sample. Then write the ratio as a decimal and as a percent.

Let :

The number of defective headphones = 10

The total number of headphones on the sample = 50

To express as a ratio :

Defective headphones : total headphones

10 : 50 = 1 : 5

To express as a percentage ;

What are rational numbers?

Rational numbers are subsets of real numbers which can be written in the form of p/q, where q ≠ 0. As at q = 0 it is undefined.

Similarly, A rational expression is also written in the form of p/q, where p and q are algebraic expressions and q ≠ 0.

From the given options, F(x) is written in the form p/q,

Where, p = x - 5 and q = 3x.

Therefore, The rational function is, F(x) = (x - 5)/3x, where x ≠ 0.

As at x = 0 the function is undefined.

find the image of O(-1, -3) after two reflections, first in the line y = -2, and then in the line x = -2

Answers

Answer:

The image of point O after these reflections is (-3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a point (x, y) a reflection across the line y = a transforms the point to:

(x, a + (a - y))

and for a reflection across the line x = b, the new point will be:

(b + (b - x), y)

Then if we start with the point (-1, -3) and we do a reflection across the line y = -2

the new point is:

(-1, -2 + (-2 - (-3))

(-1, -2 + 1) = (-1, -1)

now we do a reflection across the line x = -2

Then the new point is:

(-2 + (-2 - (-1)), -1)

(-2 + (-2 + 1), -1)

(-2 - 1, -1)

(-3, -1)

The image of point O after these reflections is (-3, -1)
