You are standing 186 feet away from the base of a building and your clinometer
measures 23° when it's looking at the top of the building. (This angle is the one between
the ground and the top of the building). Please calculate the height of the building.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  about 79 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

In this scenario, the angle is 23°, the adjacent side is the distance to the building, and the opposite side is the building height. Then we have ...

  height = tan(23°)·(186 ft) ≈ 78.95 ft ≈ 79 ft

Answers

Answer:

A. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given circle:

x² + y² + 4x - 2y = -1

Convert the equation into the standard form of (x - k)² + (y - h)² = r²:

x² + 4x + 4 + y² - 2y + 1 = -1 + 4 + 1(x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 2²

As per above:

r = 2

Correct choice is A

A.2

Answer:

Solution given:

equation of a circle is:

x²+y²+4x-2y=-1

x²+y²+4x-2y+1=0

Comparing above equation with

ax²+by²+2gx+2fy+c=0

we get

a=1

b=1

g=2

f=-1

c=1

now

radius of a circle (r)=[tex]\sqrt{g²+f²-c}[/tex]

substituting value

r=[tex]\sqrt{2²+(-1)²-1}=2[/tex]

therefore radius of a circle is 2 units

the sum of two numbers is 10, the sum of their squares is 58 determine the two numbers​

Answers

Answer:

7 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given information, one can form an equation. Let the first number be (x) and the second (y).  For two equations based on the given information.

"the sum of two numbers is 10"

x + y = 10

" the sum of their squares is 58 determine"

[tex]x^2+y^2=58[/tex]

Solve for the equation for (x), then substitute the expression for (x) into the second equation. Simplify and solve to find the value of (y), and backsolve for the value of (x).

x + y =10

x = 10 -y

Substitute into the other equation:

[tex]x^2+y^2=58[/tex]

[tex](10-y)^2+y^2=58[/tex]

Simplify, remember the pattern for opening a binomial squared:

[tex](a - b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2[/tex]

Apply this pattern here to simplify,

[tex](10-y)^2+y^2=58[/tex]

[tex]100-20y+y^2+y^2=58[/tex]

Simplify further,

[tex]100-20y+y^2+y^2=58[/tex]

[tex]2y^2-20y+100=58[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]2y^2-20y+100=58[/tex]

[tex]2y^2-20y+42=0[/tex]

Factor, take out a common factor that all of the terms have. Then rewrite the quadratic trinomial as the product of two linear binomials. Remember the general pattern for factoring, add the inverse of the factors of the constant term to the variable, the sum of these factors must equal the coefficient of the linear term of the quadratic trinomial.

[tex]2y^2-20y+42=0[/tex]

[tex]2(y^2-10y+21)=0[/tex]

[tex]2(y-7)(y-3)=0[/tex]

Now use the zero product property to solve, the zero product property states that any number times zero equals zero.

[tex]2(y-7)(y-3)=0[/tex]

[tex]y = 7, y = 3[/tex]

Since the sum of (7) and (3) is (10), one has found the values of (y), it can be either (7) or (3), it doesn't matter which equals which.

f(x) = (x - 5) (2x - 7) (7x - 3) has zeros at x = -3.5, x = 3/7, and x = 5.

what is the sign of f on the interval 3/7 < x < 5 ?

1. f is always positive on the interval.
2. f is always negative on the interval.
3. f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval.

Answers

The function f(x) will be sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval so option (3) will be correct.

What is a function?

A certain kind of relationship called a function binds inputs to essentially one output.

In other terms, a function is a relationship between variables, and the type of relationship that exists between the variables defines the function, such as y = sinx and y = x +6.

Given function is

f(x) = (x - 5) (2x - 7) (7x - 3)

The term (x - 5) will be negative if x < 5.

The term (2x - 7) will be negative if x<3.5

Let's say if x = 4 then (x - 5) will be negative but (2x - 7) will be positive and hence overall value will be negative.

But if x = 3 then (x - 5) will be negative and (2x - 7)  will also be negative and hence overall value will be negative

Hence the function f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval.

Jesse is taking the tests needed to join the math team. His scores were 89, 92, 94. What's the lowest score he can get on the fourth test and still have a 90 average?

Answers

Answer:

The lowest score could be 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the  lowest score = x

(x + 89 + 92 + 94)/4 = 90                     Add the 3 scores you know

(x + 275)/4 = 90                                    Multiply both sides by 4

(x + 275) = 360                                     Remove the brackets.

x + 275 = 360                                       Subtract 275

x = 360 - 275

x = 85

Answers

Answer: The number = 3 /4 or 4 / 3

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of a reciprocal.

Reciprocal is also called the multiplicative inverse.  It is similar to turning the number upside down which is found by interchanging the numerator and denominator.

Number ⇒ Reciprocal = 1 / Number

Solve:

STEP ONE: Set up the equation

Let x = the number

Let 1 / x = the reciprocal

x + 1 / x = 25 / 12

STEP TWO: Multiply x on both sides

(x + 1 / x) · x = (25 / 12) · x

x² + 1 = 25x / 12

STEP THREE: Multiply 12 on both sides

(x² + 1) × 12 = (25x / 12) × 12

12x² + 12 = 25x

STEP FOUR: Subtract 25x on both sides

12x² + 12 - 25x = 25x - 25x

12x² - 25x + 12 = 0

STEP FIVE: Solve for the quadratic equation

(3x - 4) (4x - 3) = 0 ⇔ (Factorization of the equation)

(x - 4 / 3) (x - 3 / 4) = 0

x = 4 / 3 or x = 3 / 4

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

b)600pi

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first questions, since the arc is 240°, the area of the sector and circumference will be 240/360 or 2/3 of the total of the circles'. Therefore 125.6 x 3/2 is the circumference, which is 188.4. When we divide this by 6.28, we get 30

Now, since the area is pi r^2 where we know that r=30, we get 900pi as the area of the whole thing, however since the sector is 2/3 of the whole circle, 2/3 x 900pi = 600pi

Verify the identity.

[tex]cot (x-\frac{\pi }{2})=-tan[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that you meant to write

cot (x-π//2) = - tan x

the identity is TRUE because,

- you can graph cot (x-π//2)  and  - tan x, and see that the graphs overlap

OR

-you solve for cot (x-π/2)

useful to know is that :

cot x=1/tan x, tan x = sin x/cos x,  

cos(x) =cos(-x), sin(-x) = -sin x,

cos(π/2 -x) =sin x, sin (π/2-x) =cos x

cot (x-π/2) = 1/tan (x-π/2) , yet tangent is sin x/cos x

cot (x-π/2) = cos (x-π/2) /sin (x-π/2) , factor -1

cot (x-π/2) = cos -(π/2-x) /sin -(π/2-x),  use facts: cos(x) =cos(-x), sin(-x) = -sin x

cot (x-π/2) = cos (π/2-x) / -sin (π/2-x), use cos(π/2 -x) =sin x, sin (π/2-x) =cos x

cot (x-π/2) = sin x / -cos x , again sin x /cos x = tan x

cot (x-π/2) = -tan x

The above set 4 numbers have a mean of 8
what could the mystery number

Answers

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the mean you add all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers. There are 4 numbers in this set so we will divide by 4.

Let x be the unknown number,

(10+4+7+x)/4=8(mean)

To solve for x, we first mutliply both sides by 4.

To simplify the left side we can add 10+4+7 and get 21 where now our equation is 21+x=32. Subtract 21 on both sides and you will get 11 which is our answer.

Plug-in 11 and solve for the mean to verify where we do indeed get 8 as the mean.
