Answers

Answer 1

Answer:12.59

Step-by-step explanation:

enter image source here

From the diagram you can see that we have constructed a right triangle, with height A and base 15.

Length of shadow = 15 feet.

Height of flagpole = A.

We know the angle of elevation is

40

. Using this angle and the tangent ratio, we can find A.

What is the slope of the line shown below?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m=-\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking any two points on the line to find the slope

(6, -3)(-6, 5)

Let us find the slope between the two points we took from the line graph

[tex]\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(6,\:-3\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-6,\:5\right)[/tex]

Divide the following using synthetic division

Answers

Answer:

x-5+ [tex]\frac{3}{x+2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x+2 is a factor, -2 is a zero. So we can put -2 in the left-hand corner of your synthetic division, bring the coefficients down so you'll have a set up like this:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

____________

1. bring down the 1:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

____________

       1

2. multiply that by -2 and enter the result underneath 3:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

             -2

___________

       1

a. then, add through:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

             -2

___________

       1     -5

3. Do the same for -5 (multiply by the zero -2), enter that underneath -7 and add through:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

             -2    10

___________

       1     -5    3

Now, reassign the coefficients to their x. Because we already factored out an x with the zero, the 1 is assigned to 'x' rather than back to '[tex]x^{2}[/tex]'. The '-5' will not have an x attached. '3' is your remainder and cannot be divided out any further, so it will be written as [tex]\frac{3}{x+2}[/tex]. Finally, just put them back together to get x-5+[tex]\frac{3}{x+2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

it is 23/38, since there are 23 girls and 38 ppl in total

If three members are selected to lead the parade, 23/38 is  the probability that all three are girls.

What is Probability?

It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.

Given,

The number of students  involved in planning the homecoming parade are thirty eight 38.

Among these thirty eight students, there are fifteen number of boys 15 and Twenty three number of girls (23).

Given a condition that  If three members are selected to lead the parade,

We need to find the probability of all three girls.

The number of students =P(B)=38

The number of girls=P(A)=23

The probability of all three girls is P(A)/P(B)

23/38

Hence 23/38 is the probability that all three are girls.

Find the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line
y = -1/8x +3​

Answers

Answer:

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line

y = -1/8x +3​ will be: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

y = -1/8x +3​

comparing the equation with the slope-intercept form

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Here,

m is the slope y is the intercept

so the slope of the line is -1/8.

As we know that the slope of the perpendicular line is basically the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line, so

The slope of the perpendicular line will be:

[tex]\frac{-1}{\frac{-1}{8}}=8[/tex]      ∵ [tex]\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{1}{\frac{b}{c}}=\frac{c}{b}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line

An airplane travels 780 miles in 4 hours. Make a table and graph to show the mileage for 2,8, and 12 hours. Is there a direct variation? Explain.


PLS HELP ME ON THIS QUESTION!!

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

As an airplane travels 780 miles in 4 hours.

We need to determine the table and graph to show the mileage for 2,8 and 12 hours.

as

The airplane covers the distance in 4 hours: 780 miles

so

The airplane covers miles in 1 hour will be: 780/4 = 195 miles

Hence, the table can be calculated as:

Hours                             Distance Mileage in Miles

[tex]2[/tex]                                       [tex]2\times195\:=\:390[/tex] miles

[tex]8[/tex]                                       [tex]8\times195 = 1560[/tex] miles

[tex]12[/tex]                                     [tex]12\times195 = 2340[/tex] miles

It is clear from the table that it is a direct variation as the constant is 195 miles per hour.

Please check the attached graph. The graph clearly indicates a direct variation.

y = 8.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Modeling

Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If a situation comes where a linear model is suitable, then we need two sample points to make the model and predict unknown behaviors.

The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

The equation of a line passing through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be found as follows:

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

Let's use linear modeling to represent Steven's earnings he makes babysitting. Call y the money he charges by x hours of work.

We know he charges y1=$33 for x1=4 hours, and y2=$57.75 for x2=7 hours. The ordered pairs are (4,33) and ( 7, 57.75)

Computing the equation of the line we have:

[tex]\displaystyle y-33=\frac{57.75-33}{7-4}(x-4)[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]\displaystyle y-33=\frac{24.75}{3}(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]y - 33 = 8.25( x - 4 )[/tex]

[tex]y = 8.25x - 33 + 33[/tex]

y = 8.25x

There is a proportional relationship.

1 and 1/5 = 6/5

To divide fractions, flip one upside down and then multiply top by top, bottom by bottom
