From his eye, which stands 1.62 meters above the ground, Amadou measures the
angle of elevation to the top of a prominent skyscraper to be 44°. If he is standing at a
horizontal distance of 164 meters from the base of the skyscraper, what is the height
of the skyscraper? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a meter if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

The height  of the skyscraper rounded to the nearest tenth of a meter is

160.0 meters.

The situation will form a right angle triangle.

The angle of elevation is 44 degrees. The horizontal distance of 164

meters from the base of the skyscraper is the adjacent side of the triangle.

Part of the height of the skyscraper is the opposite side of the triangle formed .

Using trigonometric ratio,

tan 44° = opposite / adjacent

tan 44° = h / 164

cross multiply

h = 164 × tan 44°

h = 158.372959068

Recall the angle of elevation was form from his eyes above the ground of

1.62 meters.

Therefore, the height of the skyscraper can be calculated below:

height of the skyscraper = 158.372959068 + 1.62 = 159.992959068

height of the skyscraper ≈ 160.0 meters

Answer:

After reviewing the question you posted I have deduced that the correct answers are:

11) Max has $10.00. He earns $25.75 per lawn that he mows.

12) No. She is wrong. She did not group like terms correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

11)

For 11) I first identified the independent variable of the equation, being "10".

And then the dependent variable of the equation, being "25.75". (The dependent variable of an equation will always be affected by the x)

I then looked at all the possible answers to see which one shared a independent variable of "10" and a dependent variable of "25.75".

The only possible answer that matches is Max has $10.00. He earns $25.75 per lawn that he mows.

This is because the only two possible answers that have "10" being a variable that does not change (independent variable) are:

--- "Max has $10.00. He earns $25.75 per lawn that he mows.

--- "Jon buys 10 toycars for $25.75 each"

However!

"Jon buys 10 toycars for $25.75 each" is an incorrect answer because it uses "10", although independent, as the x variable that affects the independent variable of "25.75".

12)

To find the correct answer for this question I simplified the equation from:

8t-15+3t   =   11m-15

Into:

8t+3t-15   =   11m-15

Which further simplifies into:

11t-15   =   11m-15

Which then you can notice that the two equations are similiar indeed, however they do not share like terms. One equation has "t" as their term, and the other as "m" as their term. Thus they do not share any like terms and are not equivalent.

CALCULATE THE AVERAGE RATE OF CHANGE OF THIS POLYNOMIAL ON THE
INTERVAL (-1.1)

Answers

Answer:

  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of function f(x) on the interval [a, b] is ...

  m = (f(b) -f(a))/(b -a)

We have ...

  f(-1) = (-1)^5 -2(-1) +3 = -1 +2 +3 = 4

  f(1) = (1)^5 -2(1) +3 = 1 -2 +3 = 2

Then the average rate of change is ...

  m = (2 -4)/(1 -(-1)) = -2/2 = -1

The average rate of change on the given interval is -1.

find the formula for a function of the form y=ae^(-x)+bx with global minimum at (1,10).

Answers

The formula for a function of the form [tex]y = a\cdot e^{-x} + b\cdot x[/tex] with global minimum at [tex](1, 10)[/tex] is [tex]y = 5\cdot e^{1-x}+5\cdot x[/tex].

We can use first and second derivative tests to determine all coefficients of the function described in statement so that the point given is an absolute minimum. The expressions for such tests are introduced below:

FDT

[tex]-a\cdot e^{-x}+b = 0[/tex] (1)

[tex]b = a\cdot e^{-x}[/tex]

SDT

[tex]y''=a\cdot e^{-x}[/tex] (2)

Where [tex]y'' > 0[/tex].

If we know that [tex](x, y) = (1, 10)[/tex], then we have the following system:

[tex]10 = a\cdot e^{-1}+b[/tex] (3)

[tex]b = a\cdot e^{-1}[/tex] (4)

[tex]y'' = a\cdot e^{-1}[/tex] (5)

By (4) in (3):

[tex]10 = 2\cdot a\cdot e^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{10}{2\cdot e^{-1}}[/tex]

[tex]a = 5\cdot e[/tex]

By (5) we prove that [tex]y'' > 0[/tex], and we get the value of [tex]b[/tex] by (4):

[tex]b = 5[/tex]

Thus, the formula for a function of the form [tex]y = a\cdot e^{-x} + b\cdot x[/tex] with global minimum at [tex](1, 10)[/tex] is [tex]y = 5\cdot e^{1-x}+5\cdot x[/tex].

This image shows that when a football is kicked, the nearest defensive player is 6 feet from the kicker’s foot. The height of the punted football, f(x), in feet, can be modeled by the equation. Round all answers to 2 decimals. ()=−0.0152 +1.25+2 a. (2 points) What is the maximum height of the punt?

Answers

Using the vertex, it is found that the maximum height of the punt is of 27.7 feet.

The height of the punt, after x seconds, is given by:

[tex]f(x) = -0.0152x^2 + 1.25x + 2[/tex]

It is a quadratic equation with coefficients [tex]a = -0.0152, b = 1.25, c = 2[/tex].

The maximum value is the value of the function at the vertex, hence:

[tex]f_V = -\frac{\Delta}{4a} = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}[/tex]

Applying the coefficients:

[tex]f_V = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a} = -\frac{(1.25)^2 - 4(-0.0152)(2)}{4(-0.0152)} = 27.7[/tex]

The maximum height of the punt is of 27.7 feet.

find measurement 1 and 4

Answers

Answer:

the info they gave us is to suppose that angle 6 is = 126°

step 1:

We know that angle 8 = angle 6 = 126°

Why? — when a circle (360°) is split by 2 lines that intersect, there will be 2 equal pairs of angles formed

step 2:

angle 2 = angle 8 = 126°

Why? — they’re alternate angles

step 3:

angle 4 = angle 2

Why? — when a circle (360°) is split by 2 lines that intersect, there will be 2 equal pairs of angles formed

step 4:

angle 1 = 180-126 (angle 4) = 54°

Why? — total angles in a straight line = 180°

Key Term:

Alternate angles:

Alternate angles are angles that occur on opposite sides of the transversal line and have the same size. Alternate angles are equal: We can often spot interior alternate angles by drawing a Z shape: There are two different types of alternate angles, alternate interior angles and alternate exterior angles.

At a local print shop, 14 copies can be made for $4. At this rate, how how many copies could be made for $8?

Full explanation (No links)

Answers

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio is written as copies/dollars.

14/4=x/8

since we can multiply 4 by 2 to get 8, multiply 14 by 2 as well.

14/4=28/8

Ok so the answer is 28 copies for $8



The reason that’s correct is because $8 is 2 times more than $4. So we would do 14 (which is the amount of copies that are made for $4) x 2 = 28 copies
