Answers

Answer 1

The height of the building can be  649.44 ft

What is angle of elevation ?

angle of elevation states that the angle which is formed between line of sight and horizontal line.

Given,  the base of the triangle is 1.75 mile. The angle opposite of the tall side, x, is 4 degrees.

height of the building is an unknown variable (x) .

tan(angle) = opposite length /adjacent length.

Opposite length is x, adjacent length is 1.75 mile, angle is 4 degrees.

tan(4º) = x / 1.75

rearrange for x

x = 1.75*tan(4º) = ~1.75*0.0699  miles.

x = ~0.123

Now to get feet, just multiply by 5,280 ft in one mile

Height of the building is 0.123 miles * 5280 ft/mile = 649.44 ft

Hence , The height of the building can be  649.44 ft .

x4-6x2-7x-6 = 0

Answers

Zeros of the given equation are {-2, 3, (-1±i√3)/2}

Solution:-

As the last term is -6 then, ± 2 , ±3 are possible zeroes.

Try 2:-

[tex]2^4-6*(2)^2-7*2-6=-28[/tex] so  2 is not a zero.

Try 3:-

[tex]3^4-6*(3)^2-7*3-6=0[/tex]  so 3 is a zero.

[tex](-2)^4-6*(-2)^2-7*(-2)-6=0[/tex]  so -2 is also a zero.

Divide the function by (x +2)(x - 3),  that is  [tex]x^2 - x - 6[/tex]

gives  [tex]x^2 + x + 1[/tex]

[tex]x^2 + x + 1[/tex]

So we have [tex]x^2 + x + 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = [-1 +\sqrt{1^1 - 4*1*1}] / 2[/tex]

= -1 + √(-3) / 2 , - 1 - √(-3)  / 2.

= -0.5 + 0.866i, -0.5 - 0.866i

Carmen and her dog, Duke walked at a slower rate at 0.625 blocks/min

What is rate?

In math, a rate is a ratio that compares two different quantities which have different units. For example, if we say John types 50 words in a minute, then his rate of typing is 50 words per minute. The word "per" gives a clue that we are dealing with a rate. The word "per" can be further replaced by the symbol "/" in problems.

Carmen/Duke walks 5/8 = 0.625

Terell/Lady walks 8/12 = 0.677

Rate                               80                  120

Time                                 x                     x - 2

Distance        

Distance = rate x time

A's distance

d = 80x

B's distance

d = 120(x -2)          

The distances equal each other when B catches up to A.  Set the equations equal to each other and solve for the time

80x = 120(x -2)  Distribute the 120

80x = 120x - 240  Subtract 120x from both sides

-40x = -240    Divide both sides by -40

x = 6

After 6 hours, B caught up with A.  Substitute 6 for t and find the distance. You can use A or B.    

d= 80x

d = 80(6)

d = 480

What is triangle?

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry. A triangle with vertices A, B, and C is denoted \triangle ABC. In Euclidean geometry, any three points, when non-collinear, determine a unique triangle and simultaneously, a unique plane.

Here, we have,

Given the triangles ABC and DEC

For the triangle ABC:

m∠A = 36, m∠B = 21

So, the m∠C = 180 - (m∠A + m∠B ) = 180 - (36 + 21) = 123

Similarly, the angles of DEC are,

m∠D=36 , m∠C=123 & we get,  m∠E =21

So, comparing the measurements of the angles of both triangles:

m∠A=m∠D.

m∠C=m∠C

m∠B=m∠E

So, the triangles are similar using the AAA postulate.

Hence, triangles ABC and DEC are similar.

Given that he mean pace a student needs to achieve on 5 laps of the pool is 60 seconds (s).

The student swims a lap in 63 s, 62 s, 65 s, and 58 s on her first four laps.

We need to find the maximum time (in seconds) that she can take on her last lap and still make the team

Let x be the maximum time (in seconds) that she can take on her last lap

60=(63+62+65+58+x)/5

300=63+62+65+58+x

300=248+x

Subtract 248 on both sides

300-248=x

x=52s

Answers

Answer:

it is not always true that 75% of a number will be greater than 50% of any other number

Step-by-step explanation:

Leila's statement is not true. It is possible for 50% of a number to be greater than 75% of another number.

For example, consider the numbers 10 and 100. 50% of 10 is 5, and 75% of 100 is 75. In this case, 50% of 10 (5) is greater than 75% of 100 (75).

Here's another example: 50% of 20 is 10, and 75% of 30 is 22.5. In this case, 50% of 20 (10) is again greater than 75% of 30 (22.5).

Therefore, it is not always true that 75% of a number will be greater than 50% of any other number.

a parallelogram has sides that are in the ratio of 7:5 the premeter of the parallelogram is 48 how long does the longer side

Answers

Hello there!

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller side is x. Then the largest side is x * 7/5.

Perimeter is equal to 2 * (x + 7/5 * x) or 48.

2 * (x + 7/5 * x) = 48

5/5 * x + 7/5 * x = 24

12/5 * x = 24

12/5 * 5/12 * x = 24 * 5/12

x = 10.

Tha larger side is 10 * 7/5 = 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ,

Ratio of the sides of a parallelogram are 7:5Perimeter of a parallelogram is 48

To Find : Which side is longer

We know the formula to find the perimeter of a parallelogram is,

[tex]P = 2(a+b)[/tex]

We take 'x' to find out which side is longer

[tex]48 = 2(7x+5x)\\48 = 2(12x)\\48 = 24x\\\frac{48}{24} = x[/tex]

[tex]2 = x[/tex]

Side a = 7x = 7 x 2 = 14

Side b = 5x = 5 x 2 = 10

Side a [tex]\geq[/tex] Side b

Hence,  side a is longer

A coordinate system in geometry is a method that employs one or more integers or coordinates to identify the precise placement of points or other geometrical objects on a manifold, such as Euclidean space. Pairs of integers called coordinates are used to locate a point or object on a two-dimensional plane. The position of a point on a 2D plane is described by two integers known as the x and y coordinates. a group of numbers that represent precise positions. Usually, there are two numbers in the figure. The front-to-back distance is represented by the first number, while the top-to-bottom distance is r

P = (0,0)

Q = (4,0)

The length of the ellipse's major axis is equal to the bigger of 2a or 2b, while the length of its minor axis is equal to the smaller. The major axis, which is the largest distance between any two points on the ellipse, is the line that connects both foci and runs from one end to the other. The minor axis, which is the shortest path between two points on the ellipse, is the line that passes through the center of the major axis in a perpendicular direction.
