Two points A and C are on the same level ground as the foot of pole B . The distance between A and C is 40m and A and C are on the same sides of the vertical pole . The distances from the top of the pole D to A and C are 53 and 85 respectively. Find correct to 1 do the distance between the foot of the pole B and the point A.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance between the pole and point A is 35.2m

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to illustrate the problem. I can't draw as of the moment but I'll try my best to describe the drawing as best as I can. You can draw this in a scratch paper to have a better understanding.

In a horizontal line, there is a point A, B, and C.From left going to right, the arrangement of points will be C-A-B.The distance between A and C is 40m.The pole is standing at point B with height h.The tip of the pole or the top most part of the pole is point D.From point D to A, the measurement is 53m.From point D to C, the measurement is 85m.Let's name the distance between A and B as x.

Now that you have drawn this. There should be two triangles formed now namely triangle DCB and DAB.

TRIANGLE DCB

By Pythagorean Theorem, we can write an equation for the height of the pole.

[tex]h^{2} = {53}^{2} - {x}^{2} [/tex]

TRIANGLE DAB

By Pythagorean Theorem, we can write an equation for the height of the pole.

[tex] {h}^{2} = {85}^{2} - {(40 + x)}^{2} [/tex]

Since we only have one pole, this means that we can equate the two equations.

[tex] {53}^{2} - {x}^{2} = {85}^{2} - {(40 + x)}^{2} \\ {53}^{2} - {85}^{2} = {x}^{2} - ( {x}^{2} + 80x + 1600) \\ - 4416 = - 80x - 1600 \\ 80x = 4416 - 1600 \\ 80x = 2816 \\ x = \frac{2816}{80} \\ x = 35.2[/tex]

The room number of the a computer lab is a perfect
square. It is not even, but it is a multiple of 3. The
room number is either 25, 27, 36, or 81. Which one is
it?

Answers

Answer:

81

A tree casts a 16-foot-long shadow on level ground. A forestry student uses a clinometer to determine that the sun is at a 70° angle of elevation.


What is the height of the tree to the nearest whole foot?

Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the number in the box below.

Answers

Answer:

Tree is [tex]43.84[/tex] feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Shadow casted by tree [tex]= 15[/tex] feet

Angle of elevation of sun [tex]= 70[/tex] degrees

Tangent of angle of elevation is equal to the ration of height of tree and its shadow

tan [tex]70 = \frac{t}{16}[/tex]

Height of the tree is equal to [tex]16 *[/tex] tan [tex]70[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by elimination.

Multiply the first equation by 3,and multiply the second equation by -2.

3(−6x+2y=−14)

18x−6y=42

Add these equations to eliminate y:

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions.

Let's solve your system by substitution.

−6x+2y=−14;−9x+3y=−21

Step: Solve−6x+2y=−14for x:

A person invests 3000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 6.75% interest compounded

semi-annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long must the person leave the

money in the bank until it reaches 6700 dollars?

Answers

Answer:

12.1 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Principal amount, P=$3000

Rate of interest, r=6.75%  semi-annually

Amount, A=$6700

We know that

When r pays semi-annually

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n\times 100})^{nt}[/tex]

Where n=2

Using the formula

[tex]6700=3000(1+\frac{6.75}{200})^{2t}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6700}{3000}=(1..03375)^{2t}[/tex]

[tex]2.233=(1.03375)^{2t}[/tex]

Taking ln on both sides we get

[tex]ln(2.233)=2t ln(1.03375)[/tex]

[tex]2t=\frac{ln(2.233)}{ln(1.03375)}[/tex]

A = 40°

✔️Find a:

Reference angle = 50°

Opposite = 17

Adjacent = a

Therefore, using trigonometric ratio, we have the following:

Tan 50 = 17/a

a = 17/tan 50

a = 14.3 (nearest tenth)

You spend 8 hours each weekday at school.

a. Write the portion of a weekday spent at school as a fraction, a decimal, and a percent.
how do I convert it also???

Answers

Answer:

8/24 (eight hours at school out of 24 hours of the day)

0.33 (divide 8 by 24)

33.33% (move the decimal to the right twice.)

I hope that makes sense. If you need more explanation please just comment on this and i will edit it to add what you need. Or i will just comment back. It depends.

The portion of the weekday spent at school as a fraction, a decimal and a percent can be represented as 1/3 or 0.333 or 33.3% respectively.

What are Fractions?

Fractions are type of numbers which are written in the form p/q, which implies that p parts in a whole of q.

Here p, called the numerator and q, called the denominator, are real numbers.

Given that,

You spend 8 hours each weekday at school.

Total hours in a day = 24 hours

Fraction of the hours spent = 8/24 = 1/3

Decimal of the hours spent = 0.333

Percent of the hours spent = 0.333 × 100 = 33.3%

Hence the portion of a weekday spent at school is 1/3.

Answers

Answer:

John is 1 decade, 2 years, and 4 months old

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we knot that John is half as old we just have to divide Derons age by two, and we will do that by dividing the number of decades, a number of years, and a number of months by two, and so we get that John is...

(2/2) decades, (4/2) years, and (8/2) months old =

= 1 decades, 2 years, and 4 months old

John is 1 decades, 2 years, and 4 months years old.

What is Division method?

Division method is used to distributing a group of things into equal parts. Division is just opposite of multiplications.

For example, dividing 20 by 2 means splitting 20 into 2 equal groups of 10.

We have to given that;

There are 10 years in 1 decade.

And, Deron is 2 decades, 4 years, and 8 months old.

Since, His brother John is half as old.

Hence, Age of John is,
