Melissa and brain are at the base of a mountain.melissa hikes to a location 27 meters above sea level.brain hikes to a location 21 meters below sea level. what us the diffrence if the hikers altitudes?

Answers

Answer 1

The point at the base of the mountain is described as point zero, that is they are still at sea level. If Melissa now moves to a position 27 metres above sea level, that is positive 5, assuming we are now measuring along a vertical number line. Brian however moves to a location which is 21 metres below sea level, or negative 21 along the vertical number line. Since we are measuring distances, the distance from point zero to both hikers' new position will be measured in absolute values only, that is both distances will be measured as positive.

Hence the distance between Melissa and Brian is;

Distance = 27 + 21

Distance = 48

The difference in altitude between both hikers is 48 metres

The missing side length in the right triangle is __ cm.

Answers

364

1) Assuming this is a right triangle, the side whose length is 365 is the hypotenuse, so we can write out the Pythagorean Theorem:

365² = 27² +c²

133225 =729+ c²

133225 -729 = c²

132496= c² Take the square root on both sides

√132496 = √c²

c = 364

2) Hence, the missing leg is 364 cm

Jimmy's school is selling tickets to a play. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 12 senior citizentickets and 5 child tickets for a total of $173. The school took in $74 on the second day by selling 1 seniorcitizen ticket and 5 child tickets. Find the price of a senior citizen ticket and the price of a child ticket.

Answers

SOLUTION

Let s represent senior citizen tickets

and let c represent child ticket

On the first day the school sold 12 senior tickets and 5 child's tickets for $173.

This will be represented algebraically by 12s + 5c = 173 ..... equation 1

The following day they sold 1 senior ticket and 5 child's tickets for $74.

This will be represented by s + 5c = 74 ....... equation 2

Two birds spot a cat trying to jump up to their cage Find the angle of depression of the cat.

Answers

Step 1

Draw the triangle for clarity

From the diagram above it is clear, the angle of depression is equal to the angle of elevation since both angles are alternate interior angles. Therefore, we can go ahead to find the angle of elevation which is equal to the angle of depression.

Step 2

Find the angle of depression using SohCahToa

To find this angle we will use the ratio Cah written as

[tex]\begin{gathered} \cos x=\frac{adjacent}{\text{hypotenuse}} \\ \text{adjacent}=4ft \\ \text{hypotenuse}=5ft \end{gathered}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{gathered} \cos x=\frac{4}{5} \\ x=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{4}{5}) \\ x=36.86989765^{\circ}_{} \\ x\approx36.9^{\circ}\text{ to 1 decimal places} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence the angle of depression of the cat, x to 1 decimal place = 36.9°

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the second graph.

Explanation:

Dan leaves his house at a constant speed. Then, the time starts counting, and his graph is a line that starts in (0, 0)

Then, he stops, we can see this part in the graph constant. Because he is not moving, the distance from his house remains the same.

Finally, goes back and we can this as a line. Since he is going at a faster speed, the line is more steep.

Answers

We are given a right-angle triangle with side lengths 8, 15, and 17.

Since it is a right triangle, one angle must be 90°

Let us find the other two angles of this right triangle.

With respect to angle x, the opposite side is 15 and the hypotenuse side is 17.

Recall from the trigonometric ratios,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin (x)=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} \\ \sin (x)=\frac{15}{17} \\ x=\sin ^{-1}(\frac{15}{17}) \\ x=61.9\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the second angle is 61.9°

Recall that the sum of angles inside a triangle must be equal to 180°

So, the third angle can be found as

[tex]\begin{gathered} y+61.9\degree+90\degree=180\degree \\ y=180\degree-90\degree-61.9\degree \\ y=28.1\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the third angle is 28.1°

The measure of the smaller acute angle is 28.1 degrees and the larger acute angle measures 61.9 degrees.

Where a and b are the shorter sides and c is the longest side (hypotenuse)

[tex]\begin{gathered} 20^2+21^2=c^2 \\ 400+441=c^2 \\ 841=c^2 \\ \sqrt[]{841}=c \\ 29=c \\ c=29 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Similarly, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem to triangle DEF to find the missing side.

Now, recall that two triangles are similar if the ratio of the corresponding sides is equal.

The corresponding sides are

AB = DE

BC = EF

AC = DF

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{DE}{AB}=\frac{EF}{BC}=\frac{DF}{AC} \\ \frac{40}{20}=\frac{42}{21}=\frac{58}{29} \\ \frac{2}{1}=\frac{2}{1}=\frac{2}{1} \end{gathered}[/tex]

As you can see, the ratio of the corresponding sides of the two triangles is equal.

Hence, the triangles ABC and DEF are similar.

Answers

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

We know that the volume is 72 cub cm, the width is 2 cm and the height is 4 cm. Plugging this value in the equation we have:

[tex]72=2\cdot l\cdot4[/tex]

Solving the equation for l we have:

Therefore the lenght of the prism is 9 cm.

Given the dimensions of each figure:

• Figure A:

Length of each side = 3m

All sides have equal lengths.

• Figure B:

Length of top base = 2 m

Length of bottom base = 5m

Length of each leg = 4m

• Figure C.

Length = 5 m

Width = 3m

Since the length of all sides in figure A are equal and they meet at right angles, we can say figure A is a square.

Also, figure A has 2 pairs of parallel sides.

Since it has 2 pairs of parallel sides, we can say it is also a parallelogram.

Figure B has two parallel bases, while the opposite legs are equal.

Figure B has just one pair of parallel side.

Thus, we can figure B is a trapezoid.

Figure C has two pairs of parallel sides and the opposite sides have equal lengths.

Thus, we can say Figure B is rectangle and also a parallelogram.

Frank has a vintage comic book worth $454. According to a dealer, the value of this particular comic book will increase by 15% each year. How much will the comic book be worth in 2 years?If necessary, round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Given:

Current worth = $454

Rate of increase = 15% = 0.15

Where:

a is the current worth = 454

r is the rate of increase = 0.15

t is the time = 2 years

Hence, we have:
