One of the original Seven Wonders of the World, the Great Pyramid of Cheops was built about 2580 BC. Its original height was 480 feet 11 inches, but owing to the loss of it's topmost stones, it is now shorter. Find the current height of the Great Pyramid using the information given in the illustration.​

One Of The Original Seven Wonders Of The World, The Great Pyramid Of Cheops Was Built About 2580 BC.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:    449 feet, 4 inches

This value is approximate.

========================================================

Explanation:

The entire paragraph of text given to you is not needed. It's interesting that the height used to be 480 ft 11 in, but we don't use that anywhere in our calculations to get the current shorter height. Instead we rely solely on the diagram.

Refer to the diagrams I have posted below. Figure 1 is the same diagram more or less, but I've added the variables x and h.

x = horizontal distance from the center of the pyramid to the left most part of the pyramid.h = current height of the pyramid

Both h and x are in feet.

I've also added the point labels A through E.

I've split figure 1 into two pieces. Figure 2 focuses on triangle ADE and figure 3 focuses on triangle BDE.

---------------------

Let's put our attention on triangle ADE in figure 2.

Set up the tangent ratio shown below and solve for h.

[tex]\tan(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\\\\\tan(\text{A}) = \frac{\text{DE}}{\text{AD}}\\\\\tan(40.3) = \frac{h}{x+200}\\\\h = (x+200)\tan(40.3)\\\\[/tex]

Now move onto triangle BDE in figure 3.

Set up the tangent ratio and apply substitution.

[tex]\tan(\text{angle}) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\\\\\tan(\text{B}) = \frac{\text{DE}}{\text{BD}}\\\\\tan(46.27) = \frac{h}{x+100}\\\\\tan(46.27) = \frac{(x+200)\tan(40.3)}{x+100}\\\\[/tex]

---------------------

Let's solve for x.

[tex]\tan(46.27) = \frac{(x+200)\tan(40.3)}{x+100}\\\\(x+100)\tan(46.27) = (x+200)\tan(40.3)\\\\x\tan(46.27)+100\tan(46.27) = x\tan(40.3)+200\tan(40.3)\\\\[/tex]

[tex]x\tan(46.27)-x\tan(40.3)=200\tan(40.3)-100\tan(46.27)\\\\x(\tan(46.27)-\tan(40.3))=200\tan(40.3)-100\tan(46.27)\\\\x=\frac{200\tan(40.3)-100\tan(46.27)}{\tan(46.27)-\tan(40.3)}\\\\x\approx 329.87238475414\\\\[/tex]

Use this to find h.

[tex]h = (x+200)\tan(40.3)\\\\h \approx (329.87238475414+200)\tan(40.3)\\\\h \approx 449.364461010933\\\\h\approx 449.364[/tex]

The height of the pyramid is currently 449.364 feet approximately.

---------------------

Lastly we'll convert to feet,inches format since the "480 ft 11 in" figure is in that format.

h = 449.364 ft

h = 449 ft + 0.364 ft

h = 449 ft + (0.364 ft)*(12 in/1 ft)

h = 449 ft + 4.368 in

h = 449 ft + 4 in

h = 449 feet, 4 inches

Tormod bought a perfectly square table but found out it won't fit through his study

9cm. Its new area is 309cm?
What was the area of his original square table?

Answers

Answer:

390 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the dimensions of the original square  x  by  x.  Its area is x^2.

After the table is altered, its dimensions are x + 9  by  x - 9, and you're given the area is 309 cm^2.

[tex](x+9)(x-9)=309\\\\x^2-81=309\\\\x^2=390[/tex]

This last equation is telling us the area of the original, square table.

perimeter is more than 22 so 22 is less than perimeter , then

22 < 4x + 2 ≤ 30 ( subtract 2 from each interval )

Answers

Answer:

41

Step-by-step explanation:

76, x and 63 are linear pair angles.

Sum of linear pair angles is 180,

76 + x + 63 = 180

x + 76 + 63 = 180

x + 139 = 180

x = 180 - 139

x = 42

X is 41

A straight line is 180 degrees so i do 76+63 which is 139 and 180-139 which is 41

At Thomas High School, 200 students go to school by their own vehicle. If this number of students is 40% of school enrollment, then how many students are there in the school altogether?​

Answers

Answer:

500 students

Step-by-step explanation:

40% = 200 students

divide both by 4 to 10%

10% = 50

multiply both by 10 to get 100%

100% = 500

or the quicker way,

200 x 2 = 400 (80%) + 100 (20%) = 500 (100%)

Answers

The linear equation is y = 1000 + 120x, at the end of 6 months, Joe will have $1720 in his account and Joe needs to save for at least 18 months in order to afford the down payment.

Data;

Initial savings = $1000Recurrent = $120

a)

Linear Equation

The linear equation to compute the amount of money (y) he has after x months of savings

This can be written as

[tex]y = 1000 + 120x\\[/tex]

b)

Graphing this line, see attachment

c)

The amount Joe has after 6 months

[tex]y = 1000 + 120x\\x = 6\\y = 1000 + 120(6)\\y = 1000 + 720\\y = 1720[/tex]

after 6 months, Joe will have $1720 in his account.

d)

Joe needs $3160 down payment for a car, he would have to save x number of months.

[tex]3160 = 1000 + 120x\\120x = 3160 - 1000\\120x = 2160\\\frac{120x}{120} = \frac{2160}{120} \\x = 18[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

$1322.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount that Sarah deposited be $x

using the annuity formula:

A=P[((1+r)^n-1)/r]

A=future value

r=rate

n=number of years

from the information given:

A=$500000

r=2.75%

n=65-42=23 years

p=$x

thus plugging our values in the formula we get:

500000=x[((1+0.0275)^(23)-1)/(0.0275)]

500000=31.50x

x=15,872.04883

She deposited 15,873.04883 per year

You helped 3.6 customers per half hour yesterday so I helped how many customers in 7,.5 hours yesterday

Answers

You helped 54 customers.

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess, "you" and "I" are working with the same efficiency and work rate.

and with the typos in it, it is not clear, if I understood the problem and the given data properly.

but based on what I understood :

so, 3.6 customers in 0.5 hours.

7.5 hours × 2 = 15 times 0.5 hours.

15 × 3.6 = 54 customers.

so, with the same work rate as you, I helped 54 customers in 7.5 hours.

While shopping, Kyla found a dress that she would like to purchase, but it costs $49.50 more than she has. Kyla charges $5.50 an hour for babysitting. She wants to figure out how many hours she must babysit to earn $49.50 to buy the dress.​

Answers

Answer:

9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do this 2 ways but I think you will want this the easiest way :)

So we can divide:

49.50/5.50

9

Or we can multiply and keep multiplying 5.50 by different numbers until we get 49.50 or over (this way will take longer)

5.50 x 1

5.50 x 2

and so on and so fourth

With the first way we figued out she will need to babysit for 9 hours :)
