Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

26,812 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The drawing given is very helpful in this case.  When solving problems like this, it's important to realize what trigonometric ratio we're going to use.  From the given angle (50°), we are given the hypotenuse (35,000 ft) and we're trying to solve for the opposite side ([tex]a[/tex]).  

So since we're trying to find the opposite side side and we have the hypotenuse, we should try to find a trigonmetric ratio between the opposite side and the hypotenuse.  Using SOH-CAH-TOA, hopefully you can see that we should pick SOH (i.e. [tex]\sin(\theta)=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex]).  Therefore, we can set up our equation given the angle [tex]\theta=50^\circ[/tex].  

[tex]\sin(50^\circ)=\frac{a}{35000}[/tex]

Since we're solving for [tex]a[/tex], we can just rearrange to get [tex]a=35000\sin(50^\circ)=26812[/tex]

Therefore, the plane's altitude [tex]a[/tex] is 26,812 ft.

Answer 2

The approximation altitude of the plane at 35,000 feet from an air traffic control tower will be 26812 feet hence option (B) will be correct.

What is a trigonometric function?

the trigonometric functions are real functions for only an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.

The domain input value for the six basic trigonometric operations is the angle of a right triangle, and the result is a range of numbers.

The trigonometric function is only valid for the right angle triangle and it is 6 functions which are given as sin cos tan cosec sec cot.

Given that 35000 feet are the distance between a plane and the air traffic control tower.

Hypotaneous =  35000 feet

The angle of elevation is 50°

By trigonometric function sin

Sinx = perpendicular/hypotaneous

Sin50° = Altitude/35000

Altitute = 35000 × sin50°

Altitude = 26811.55 ≈ 26812 feet will be the correct answer.

Given:

A line passes through the points (-3,7) and (9,-5).

To find:

The equation of the line in the form of [tex]y=mx+b[/tex].

Solution:

If a line passes through two points, then the equation of the line is:

[tex]y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

A line passes through the points (-3,7) and (9,-5). So, the equation of the given line is:

[tex]y-7=\dfrac{-5-7}{9-(-3)}(x-(-3))[/tex]

[tex]y-7=\dfrac{-5-7}{9+3}(x+3)[/tex]

[tex]y-7=\dfrac{-12}{12}(x+3)[/tex]

[tex]y-7=-1(x+3)[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]y-7=-x-3[/tex]

[tex]y-7+7=-x-3+7[/tex]

[tex]y=-x+4[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the required line is [tex]y=-x+4[/tex].

(8, 17)

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 3x -7 -----(1)

y= 2x +1 -----(2)

Substitute (1) into (2):

3x -7= 2x +1

Being x terms to one side, constant to the other:

3x -2x= 7 +1

x= 8

Substitute x= 8 into (2):

y= 2(8) +1

y= 16 +1

y= 17

∴ The solution is (8, 17).

Step-by-step explanation:

This is correct answer bro...

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

So first off, two numbers that are to the same root can be combined.

In this case we can combine these two values, since they are to the 5th root and are both 7:

[tex]\sqrt[5]{7*7^4}[/tex]

=

[tex]\sqrt[5]{49^4}[/tex]

This can be broken down into 7^2

This gets us [tex]\sqrt[5]{7^5}[/tex]

Remember that we add exponents, together, so in this case it adds up to 5.

You might be wondering...well if its 7^2 and 7^4, wouldnt it be 7^6?

Well, remember this. One of the 7s in 7^2 is from the 7^4, so tecnically it is 7^3 + 7^2, which is 7^5

Anyway, now we have:

[tex]\sqrt[5]{7^5}[/tex]

When you root a exponent, it works like subtraction.

In this case we have a exponent of 5, and a root of 5.

This is 5-5 = 0

So it will just be 7. Because the square and root cancel each other out, leaving us with 7.

Hope this helps!

Trigonometry help please? I need the three answers

Answers

Answer:

Both triangles are triangle rectangles, but the triangles are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Pythagorean's theorem, we know that for a triangle rectangle the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Where the cathetus are always the two sides of smaller length.

We also know that two figures are similar if all the correspondent sides are proportional to each other, this means that the figures have the same shape but different size.

First, for triangle A the measures of the sides are:

48, 55, 73

Here the two catheti are 48 and 55, and the hypotenuse is 73.

Then to answer the first question we need to try to apply the Pythagorean's theorem, we should have:

48^2 + 55^2 = 73^2

solving that we get:

5,329 = 5,329

This is true, thus triangle A is a triangle rectangle.

Now for triangle B the measures are: 36, 77 and 85.

So the catheti are 36 and 77, and the hypotenuse is 85

So to check if triangle B is a triangle rectangle the equation:

36^2 + 77^2 = 85^2

must be true, solving both sides we get:

7,225 = 7,225

This is true, so triangle B is a triangle rectangle.

Finally, to check if the figures are similar we need to compare the correspondent sides of both triangles, such that the quotient of correspondent sides must be always the same.

For the hypotenuses, if we compute:

(hypotenuse B)/(Hypotenuse A) we get:

85/73 = 1.16

Now if we do the same for the two smaller catheti we get:

36/48 = 0.75

The quotients are different, thus the triangles are not similar.

b. $4.00 / Ib
c. $6.25 / Ib.
d. $7.75 / Ib.

Answers

Answer:

a. $0.13 / Ib.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line:

Suppose we have two data-points in a line. The slope is given by the change in the output divided by the change in the output.

In this question:

Input: weight(in pounds)

Output: Weekly cost to feed.

A hamster weighs half a pound and costs $2 per week to feed, while a Labrador Retriever weighs 62.5 pounds and costs $10 per week to feed.

Inputs: 0.5, 62.5

Outputs: 2, 10

Change in the outputs: 10 - 2 = 8

Change in the inputs: 62.5 - 0.5 = 62

Slope: [tex]m = \frac{8}{62} = 0.13[/tex]

So the correct answer is given by option A.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: If I is intial height (y=I-6x) because Height = intial height + numbrt of knots -6 becuase as shown in the table every knot takes away 6 cm.

The linear equation that represents the length of the rope (y) after tying 'x' knots is:  y = f(x) = 88 - 6x

What is a linear equation?

"A linear equation is an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. It is also known as a one-degree equation. The standard form of a linear equation in one variable is of the form Ax + B = 0. Here, x is a variable, 'A' is a coefficient and 'B' is constant".

Here, the number of knots are x = 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.

The length of the rope remains after each knots y = 64, 58, 52, 46, 40.

After tying 5th knot, the length of the rope decreases

= (64 - 58) cm

= 6 cm

After tying 6th knot, the length of the rope decreases

= (58 - 52) cm

= 6 cm

After tying 7th knot, the length of the rope decreases

= (52 - 46) cm

= 6 cm

After tying 5th knot, the length of the rope decreases

= (46 - 40) cm

= 6 cm

Initial length of the rope was = (64 + 4 × 6) cm = 88 cm

With the increase in value of 'x' by 1, the value of 'y' decreases by 6.

Therefore, the required equation: y = f(x) = 88 - 6x

Which state would a home priced at $200,000 be closer to the mean price, compared to the distribution of prices in the state?
Find the z score for each state.

Answers

Answer:

The z-score for a home priced at $200,000 in Florida is of -2.5.

The z-score for a home priced at $200,000 in Ohio is of 2.5.

The closeness to the mean is measured by the absolute z-score(disconsidering the signal, the lower the score, the closer to the mean). However, in this case, both z-scores have the same absolute value, so in both Florida and Ohio a home priced at $200,000 is equally close to the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The mean price for a 2,000sq foot home in FL is $240,000 with a Standard Deviation of $16,000. Home of $200,000.

This means that [tex]\mu = 240, \sigma = 16, X = 200[/tex]. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{200 - 240}{16}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.5[/tex]

The z-score for a home priced at $200,000 in Florida is of -2.5.

The mean price of the same sized home in OH is $170,000 with a standard deviation of $12,000. Home of $200,000.

This means that [tex]\mu = 170, \sigma = 12, X = 200[/tex]. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{200 - 170}{12}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex]

The z-score for a home priced at $200,000 in Ohio is of 2.5.

Which state would a home priced at $200,000 be closer to the mean price, compared to the distribution of prices in the state?

The closeness to the mean is measured by the absolute z-score(disconsidering the signal, the lower the score, the closer to the mean). However, in this case, both z-scores have the same absolute value, so in both Florida and Ohio a home priced at $200,000 is equally close to the mean.

A family is planning to sell their home. If they want to be left with $116,100 after paying 10% of the selling price to a realtor as a commission, for how much must they sell the house?

Answers

116100 will be 90% of the selling price
The will need to sell for 116100 / 90 x 100 = $129000

The selling price of an item is the price at which it is sold.

Given that 10% of selling price is the commission.

So the family gets 90% of the selling price, which is given as $116,100.

i.e (90/100) * Selling Price = 116100

Therefore, the selling price is  (116100*100)/90 = 129000.

When the demand for a good is highly elastic with respect to price, how should a producer want to increase revenue?

Answers

Answer:

When the demand for a good is highly elastic, the producer can increase revenue by reducing the price slightly.

Explanation:

Prices can either be Elastic, Inelastic, or Unitary.

The assumption is that the scenario in the question is in a perfect market. A perfect market is one where there are numerous buyers and sellers and there is little or no gap in information about market conditions such as cost of input, prices of the competition, etc.

When the demand for a product is elastic, it means that it is sensitive to changes in price. Price Elasticity is in degrees. When the demand for a product is highly elastic, it means that small changes in price lead to even greater changes in demand.

So for the producer to increase revenue in the short run (all things being equal) all they need to do is reduce the price slightly. This will increase revenue because it most likely will translate to a more than proportionate increase in quantity demanded.

Recall that markets are dynamic and the most predictable reaction of the other producers to this move will be an equal or even greater reduction in price in order to win back lost customers. Hence to sustainably maintain this position The producer will have to ensure that their product is sufficiently differentiated with unique value additions that are impossible or difficult to replicate.
