a length of top is stretched between the top edge of a building and a stake in the ground the head of the stake is at ground level. the rope also touches a tree that is growing half way between the stake and the building. if the tree is 38 ft tall how tall is the building?

A Length Of Top Is Stretched Between The Top Edge Of A Building And A Stake In The Ground The Head Of

Answers

Answer 1

The relationship between the rope, the building, the tree and the ground is an illustration of similar triangles and equivalent ratios.

The building is 76ft tall

The height of the tree is given as:

[tex]Height = 38ft[/tex]

The position of the tree is halfway between the building and the stake.

From the figure, the rope touches the top of the building, and the top of the tree.

This means that: the height of the building is twice the height of the tree.

So, we have:

[tex]Building=2\times 38ft[/tex]

[tex]Building=76ft\\[/tex]

Hence, the building is 76ft tall

the company installs the new windows for $3150. the total cost for buying them and having them installed is $5769.00. if ray hills pay $145.50 per widow how many windows did they buy?

Answers

Answer:  18

====================================================

Work Shown:

x = number of windows purchased

The cost expression is 145.50x+3150 because the "145.50x" portion represents the $145.50 per window charge, then we tack on the fixed fee of $3150. Set this cost expression equal to the total charge ($5769) and solve for x.

[tex]145.50x+3150 = 5769\\\\145.50x = 5769-3150\\\\145.50x = 2619\\\\x = 2619/(145.50)\\\\x = 18\\\\[/tex]

You buy candy bars at 85 cents each plus one newspaper for 60 cents. You can spend no more than $4. How many candy bars can you buy? answer

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first you want to take 0.60 from the total amount which is $4 leaving you with $3.40

then you want to divide the remaining amount of money by the cost of a candy bar ($0.85)

So you do 3.40/0.85 which is equal to 4

Given 2 angles that measure 50 and 80 and a side that measure 4 feet how many triangles if any can be condctuted

Answers

Answer:

The number of unique triangles that can be constructed from the given values is; Only one triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the 2 angles of a triangle as;  

∠1 = 50°  

∠2 = 80°  

Now, we know that sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. This means that if the third angle is denoted as ∠3, then we have;  

∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180°  

Thus;  

∠3 = 180 - (∠1 + ∠2)  

∠3 = 180 - (50 + 80)  

∠3 = 180 - 130  

∠3 = 50°  

Thus; ∠1 = ∠3 = 50°  

A triangle with two equal angles is called an isosceles triangle. Which means that it will also have 2 of its' sides to be equal.  

Thus, in conclusion, only one unique triangle can be drawn.

What dose f(-2)=3 mean?

Answers

function!

Step-by-step explanation:

this was a function that the answer (y) is equal to 3

and the X is equal to (-2)

Answer:

This is about a function evaluated at a particular point.  You don't get a formula for the function, but there is enough information to say that the ordered pair (-2, 3) is part of the function.

The function's name is f.

The -2 in parentheses is a value for the independent variable ("input"), often designated by the variable  x.

The 3 is the corresponding value of the dependent variable ("output"), often designated by  the variable y.

The expression can be read as:

"f of negative two is equal to 3"

"the value of f at -2 is 3"

The function v(t) is the velocity in m/sec of a particle moving along the x-axis. Use analytic methods to do each of the following: (a) Determine when the particle is moving to the right, to the left, and stopped. (b) Find the particle's displacement for the given time interval. If s(0) = 3, what is the particle's final position? (c) Find the total distance traveled by the particle. v(t) = 5 (sint)^2(cost); 0 ≤ t ≤ 2π

Answers

Answer:

(a) The particle is moving to the right in the interval  [tex](0 \ , \ \displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}) \ \cup \ (\displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2} \ , \ 2\pi)[/tex] , to the left in the interval [tex](\displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}\ , \ \displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2})[/tex], and stops when t = 0, [tex]\displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex], [tex]\displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2}[/tex] and [tex]2\pi[/tex].

(b) The equation of the particle's displacement is [tex]\mathrm{s(t)} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(t)} \ + \ 3[/tex]; Final position of the particle [tex]\mathrm{s(2\pi)} \ = \ 3[/tex].

(c)  The total distance traveled by the particle is 9.67 (2 d.p.)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The particle is moving towards the right direction when v(t) > 0 and to the left direction when v(t) < 0. It stops when v(t) = 0 (no velocity).

Situation 1: When the particle stops.

[tex]\-\hspace{1.7cm} v(t) \ = \ 0 \\ \\ 5 \ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t)} \ \mathrm{cos(t)} \ = \ 0 \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.3cm} \mathrm{sin^{2}(t) \ cos(t)} \ = \ 0 \\ \\ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t)} \ = \ 0 \ \ \ \mathrm{or} \ \ \ \mathrm{cos(t)} \ = \ 0 \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.85cm} t \ = \ 0, \ \displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}, \ \displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2} \ \ \mathrm{and} \ \ 2\pi[/tex].

Situation 2: When the particle moves to the right.

[tex]\-\hspace{1.67cm} v(t) \ > \ 0 \\ \\ 5 \ \mathrm{sin^2(t) \ cos(t)} \ > \ 0[/tex]

Since the term [tex]5 \ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t)}[/tex] is always positive for all value of t of the interval [tex]0 \ \leq \mathrm{t} \leq \ 2\pi[/tex], hence the determining factor is cos(t). Then, the question becomes of when is cos(t) positive? The term cos(t) is positive in the first and third quadrant or when [tex]\mathrm{t} \ \epsilon \ (0, \ \displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}) \ \cup \ (\displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2}, \ 2\pi)[/tex] .  

*Note that parentheses are used to demonstrate the interval of t in which cos(t) is strictly positive, implying that the endpoints of the interval are non-inclusive for the set of values for t.

Situation 3: When the particle moves to the left.

[tex]\-\hspace{1.67cm} v(t) \ < \ 0 \\ \\ 5 \ \mathrm{sin^2(t) \ cos(t)} \ < \ 0[/tex]

Similarly, the term [tex]5 \ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t)}[/tex] is always positive for all value of t of the interval [tex]0 \ \leq \mathrm{t} \leq \ 2\pi[/tex], hence the determining factor is cos(t). Then, the question becomes of when is cos(t) positive? The term cos(t) is negative in the second and third quadrant or  [tex]\mathrm{t} \ \epsilon \ (\displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}, \ \displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2})[/tex].

(b) The equation of the particle's displacement can be evaluated by integrating the equation of the particle's velocity.

[tex]s(t) \ = \ \displaystyle\int\ {5 \ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t) \ cos(t)}} \, dx \ \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.69cm} = \ 5 \ \displaystyle\int\ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t) \ cos(t)} \, dx[/tex]

To integrate the expression [tex]\mathrm{sin^{2}(t) \ cos(t)}[/tex], u-substitution is performed where

[tex]u \ = \ \mathrm{sin(t)} \ , \ \ du \ = \ \mathrm{cos(t)} \, dx[/tex].

[tex]s(t) \ = \ 5 \ \displaystyle\int\ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t) \ cos(t)} \, dx \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.7cm} = \ 5 \ \displaystyle\int\ \ \mathrm{sin^{2}(t)} \, du \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.7cm} = \ 5 \ \displaystyle\int\ \ u^{2} \, du \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.7cm} = \ \displaystyle\frac{5u^{3}}{3} \ + \ C \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.7cm} = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(t)} \ + \ C \\ \\ s(0) \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(0)} \ + \ C \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.48cm} 3 \ = \ 0 \ + \ C \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.4cm} C \ = \ 3.[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]s(t) \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(t)} \ + \ 3[/tex].

The final position of the particle is [tex]s(2\pi) \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(2\pi)} \ + \ 3 \ = \ 3[/tex].

(c)

[tex]s(\displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2}) \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(\frac{\pi}{2})} \ + \ 3 \\ \\ \-\hspace{0.85cm} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{14}{3} \qquad (\mathrm{The \ distance \ traveled \ initially \ when \ moving \ to \ the \ right})[/tex]

[tex]|s(\displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2}) - s(\displatstyle\frac{\pi}{2})| \ = \ |\displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ (\mathrm{sin^{3}(\frac{3\pi}{2})} \ - \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(\displaystyle\frac{\pi}{2})})| \ \\ \\ \-\hspace{2.28cm} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} | (-1) \ - \ 1| \\ \\ \-\hspace{2.42cm} = \displaystyle\frac{10}{3} \\ \\ (\mathrm{The \ distance \ traveled \ when \ moving \ to \ the \ left})[/tex]

[tex]|s(2\pi) - s(\displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2})| \ = \ |\displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ (\mathrm{sin^{3}(2\pi})} \ - \ \mathrm{sin^{3}(\displaystyle\frac{3\pi}{2})})| \ \\ \\ \-\hspace{2.28cm} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} | 0 \ - \ 1| \\ \\ \-\hspace{2.42cm} = \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \\ \\ (\mathrm{The \ distance \ traveled \ finally \ when \ moving \ to \ the \ right})[/tex].

The total distance traveled by the particle in the given time interval is[tex]\displaystyle\frac{14}{3} \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{5}{3} \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{10}{3} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{29}{3}[/tex].

A self-storage center has many storage rooms that are 6 feet wide, 10 feet deep, and 12 feet high. What is the volume of the room?

Answers

Answer:

720 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

6 * 10 *12

v = l * w * h

6 * 10 * 12 =  720

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The volume of the self-storage centre room is 720 ft³.

What is volume?

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

The volume of a room or box that is the shape of a rectangular prism is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height of the prism.

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Given that the self-storage centre room's are 6 feet wide, 10 feet deep, and 12 feet high. Therefore, the dimension of the room can be written as,

Length = 10 ft

Width = 6 ft

Height = 12 ft

Now, the volume of the room can be written as,

Volume of the room = 10ft × 6ft × 12ft

                                  = 720 ft³

Hence, the volume of the self-storage centre room is 720 ft³.

A group of pigs and ducks has a total of 40 feet. There are twice as many ducks as pigs. How many of each animal are there?

Answers

The question relates to the total number of pairs of feet ducks and a pigs

are known to have.

There are 5 pigs and 10 ducks

Reasons:

The length of the group of ducks and pigs = 40 feet

Number of ducks = Twice the number of pigs

Each duck has 2 feet.Each pig has 4 feet.

Let x represent the number of pigs, and let y represent the number of ducks, we have;

y = 2 × x

4·x + 2·y = 40

Which gives;

4·x + 2 × (2·x) = 40

8·x = 40

x = 40 ÷ 8 = 5

The number of pigs, x = 5

y = 2 × x

Therefore;

y = 2 × 5 = 10

The number of ducks, y = 10

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find c if ∠PQR = 90°?

I will ASSUME you mean point P is at (3. c)

slope of PQ is (2 - c) / (9 - 3) = (2 - c) / 6

slope of QR is (11 - 2) / (3c - 9) = 9 / (3c - 9)

perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

(2 - c) / 6 = -1(3c - 9)/9

9(2 - c) = -6(3c - 9)

18 - 9c = -18c + 54

       9c = 36
