A fireman needs to get water to a second-floor fire. His ladder is 33 ft long and he leans it against the vertical wall so that the top of the ladder is 27 ft above the ground.

(a) Use trigonometry to find the angle formed between the ground and the ladder. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree and show all your work.

(b) For safety reasons, the fireman wants the angle the ladder makes with the ground to be no more than 55°. Will the ladder be safe the way it is positioned? Explain.

Answers

Answer: (a) 64°

(b) Yes, it is safe

Step-by-step explanation:

A fireman needs to get water to a second-floor fire. His ladder is 30 ft long and he leans it against the vertical wall so that the top of the ladder is 27 ft above the ground.

(a) Use trigonometry to find the angle formed between the ground and the ladder. Round to the nearest whole number and show all your work.

We solve the above question using the trigonometric function of Sine

sin θ = Opposite side/Hypotenuse sides

θ = Angle formed with the ground = ?

Opposite side = 27 ft

Hypotenuse side = 30 ft

Hence,

sin θ = 27 ft/30 ft

sin θ = 9/10 = 0.9

θ = arc sin (0.9)

θ = 64.158067237°

Approximately to the nearest whole number = 64°

(b) For safety reasons, the fireman wants the angle the ladder makes with the ground to be no more than 70°.Will the ladder be safe the way it is positioned?

From the above calculation, the angle the ladder makes with the ground is 64° and now we want that angle to be 70°

Hence:

64° < 70°

Therefore, the ladder will be safe the way it is positioned.

18. Range is 3< y <8, because the equation only has values for x where y is between those numbers.

19. Range is 3> y >-∞ (negative infinity) because the parabola's vertex has a y-coordinate of 3 and the parabola goes on forever in the negative direction (as seen by the arrows).

2(x -9) = 9 divided ( - 1/3) what value of x makes the equation true
plsss help :)))

Answers

Answer:

x = -9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide 9 by -1/3:

[tex]\frac{9}{1}[/tex] ÷ [tex]-\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{1}[/tex] · [tex]-\frac{3}{1}[/tex]

= -27

2. Divide both sides by 2:

2(x - 9) = -27

[tex]\frac{2(x-9)}{2} = \frac{-27}{2}[/tex]

(x - 9) = [tex]-\frac{27}{2}[/tex]

3. Add 9 to both sides:

x = [tex]-\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

(or 4.5 if you need it in decimal form)

Andrea bough a bucket of colored chalk. The list below shows the fraction of each color of chalk in the bucket. 2/6 are yellow, 5/12 are blue, and 3/12 are green. Andrea told Michelle that less than 1/2 the chalk in the bucket is blue. Michelle said she is mistaken. Who is correct? Explain why you chose your answer.​

Answers

Given the fraction of each colored chalk, Andrea is right that less than 1/2 the chalk in the bucket is blue.

How to solve fractions?

Yellow = 2/6Blue = 5/12Green = 3/12

Total = 2/6 + 5/12 + 3/12

= (4+5+3) / 12

= 12/12

= 1

Fraction of blue : Total chalk

= 5/12 : 1

Blue = 5/12 ÷ 1

= 5/12 × 1/1

= 5/12

= 0.42

So,

1/2 = 0.5

Therefore, Andrea is right that less than 1/2 the chalk in the bucket is blue.

Find the equation of the perpendicular from the point P(-1,-2) on the line
3x + 4y - 12 = 0. also find the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular.

Answers

eq :- 4x - 3y - 2 =0and coordinates :- (44/25,42/25)

Step-by-step explanation:-

The given line is 3x + 4y - 12 = 0

=> 4y = -3x + 12 ....(i)

=> y = -3x/4 + 3,

therefore, the slope of the line (i) = -3/4.

From P(-1,-2), draw PN perpendicular to the given line. (see attachment)

As we know,, m2 = -1/m1

So, the slope of the line PN = 4/3

the equation of the line through P(-1,-2) and having a slope 4/3 is :-

= > y - (-2) = 4/3 * (x - (-1))

= > 3y + 6 = 4x + 4

= > 4x - 3y - 2 = 0....(ii)

which is the required equation of the perpendicular from P to the given line. To find the coordinates of N (the foot of perpendicular), solve (i) and (ii) simultaneously. Multiplying (i) by 3 and

(ii) by 4, and on adding, we get

= > 25x - 44 = 0

= > x = 44/25

Multiplying (i) by 4 and (ii) by 3, and on subtracting, we get :-

= > 25y - 42 = 0

= > y = 42/25

Hence, the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular are (44/25 , 42/25)

Hope it helps you!!

What is the y-coordinate of point D after a translation of (x, y) → (x + 6, y – 4)?

Answers

Translating the triangle DEF involves moving the triangle along the coordinate plane

The y-coordinate of point D after the translation (x, y) → (x + 6, y – 4) is 1

How to determine the y-coordinate of D'?

From the figure the coordinate of D is:

D = (-2.5,5)

The rule of translation is given as:

(x, y) → (x + 6, y – 4)

So, we have:

(x, y) → (-2.5 + 6, 5 – 4)

Evaluate the sum and the difference

(x, y) → (3.5, 1)

Remove the x-coordinate
