A pilot spots the airport at an angle of depression of 16°. The plane is flying at an altitude of 9,000 ft. What is the ground distance (distance along the ground) from the plane to the airport to the nearest foot

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]31,387\:\text{ft}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can form a right triangle using the plane, the airport, and ground and use basic trig for a right triangle to solve this problem.

In a right triangle, [tex]\tan\theta=\frac{\text{opp}}{\text{adj}}[/tex]. Therefore, we have the following equation, where [tex]x[/tex] is ground distance between the plane and the airport:

[tex]\tan 16^{\circ}=\frac{9,000}{x},\\x=\frac{9,000}{\tan 16^{\circ}},\\x\approx \boxed{31,387\:\text{ft}}[/tex].

A furniture store pays a wholesale price for a mattress.
Then, the store marks up the retail price to 150% of the
wholesale price. Later, they put the mattress on sale for
50% off of the retail price. A customer just bought the
mattress on sale and paid $1,200.
a. What was the retail price of the mattress, before the
discount?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given that the mattress is sold for 50% off of the retail price, let the retail price of the mattress be x, then

50% of x = 1200

⇒ 0.5x = 1200

⇒ x = 1200 / 0.5 = 2400

Therefore, the retail price of the mattress, before the discount is $2,400.

Part B:

Given that the store marks up the retail price to 150% of the wholesale price. Let the whole sale price be p, then

(100% + 150%) of p = 2400

250% of p = 2400

2.5p = 2400

p = 2400 / 2.5 = 960.

Therefore, the wholesale price, before the markup was $960

Raymond needs to cover the entire surface area of the square based pyramid with paper what is the minimum amount of paper he will need

Answers

Answer: 408 sq ft

Step-by-step explanation: You would need to use the surface area formula SA = 1/2LP + B. Note that L is the slant height, P is the perimeter of the base, and B is the area of the base. 11 is the slant height as shown in the image above, p is 48 since you add 12 + 12 + 12 + 12, and the area of the square will be 144 since 12*12 = 144. Once you substitute the numbers in their correct place, you should get SA = 1/2 (11)(48)+144 which gives you 408 sq ft. Hope this helps!

The rectangle below has an area of 70 square meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. (x - 11) (x - 8)

Answers

Answer:

the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 and 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

area of the rectangle, A = 70 m²

dimensions of the rectangle, = x - 11 and x - 8

The area of rectangle is calculated as;

A = L x B

70 = (x - 11)(x - 8)

70 = x² - 8x - 11x + 88

0 = x² - 8x - 11x + 88 - 70

0 = x² - 19x + 18

0 = x² - x - 18x + 18

0 = x(x - 1) -18(x - 1)

0 = (x - 18)(x - 1)

0 = x - 18     or    

0 = x - 1

x = 18 or 1

The dimensions of the rectangle are calculated as;

L = 18 - 11  = 7

B = 18 - 8 = 10

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 and 7.

What is the slope for (-2,1) and (7,1)

PLZZ HELP find area of square KLMN?

Answers

Hello! The area of square KLMN is 25 cm²

Make sure to read an explanation for better understanding to the problem.

Any questions about my answer and explanation can be asked through comments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the square has same length for both sides. We can proceed side × side formula. Our side is 5 because if we count these small squares or grids, we'd get 5 for both sides.

Therefore 5 × 5 = 5² = 25 cm².

We can also use Calculus to solve the problem by using Integration.

Because both lines are horizontal, they are constant function. That means they are in the form of y = b where b is a constant.

A line that passes through (a,4) where a is all real numbers. The equation is y = 4

A line that passes through (c,-1) where c is all real numbers. The equation is y = -1

Therefore,

[tex] \large{ \int^{b}_a f(x) dx+ \int^{b}_a g(x)dx} \\ \large{ \int^{2}_{ - 3} (4)dx+ \int^{2}_{ - 3} ( - 1)dx}[/tex]

Because y = -1 is below x-axis. Therefore,

[tex] \large{ \int^{2}_{ - 3} 4 dx+ \int^{2}_{ - 3} 1dx} \\ \large{ (4x)^{2}_{ - 3} + (x)^{2}_{ - 3} } \\ \large{8 - ( - 12) + 2 - ( - 3)} \\ \large{8 + 12 + 2 + 3 = 25}[/tex]

The diagram shows quadrilateral MNPQ.

What is the length of line segment MQ?
8 units
10 units
11 units
15 units

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 11 units

Step-by-step explanation:

I just took the test, plus if you were to lay the side MN down to next to MQ, it would be similar but, a little be shorter. Also if you were to think of it, 8 units would be too short and 15 units would be too long, 10 units would of made MQ look the same length as MN, but MQ was longer just by a bit. Thus, makes 11 units the answer.

Hopes this helps!

For the given quadrilateral MNPQ, the length of MQ is 11 units.

Therefore, the option C is the correct answer.

Given that a quadrilateral MNPQ, with sides NP and MQ are parallel, ∠P = ∠Q = 90°, MN = 10, NP = 3 and PQ = 6.

We need to find the length of side MQ,

MQ = MR + RQ............(i) [segment addition property]

To find MR and RQ, we will have to do a construction in the figure given,

(Refer to the diagram attached)

Join the segment NR, that will be equal and parallel to PQ and perpendicular to MQ.

So, we get NPQR as a rectangle, according to the property of a rectangle its opposite sides are equal,

So, we get,

QR = 3 and NR = 6.

Also, we have a right triangle MNR, where MN is the hypotenuse,

Using the Pythagoras theorem, we can find the length of MR,

MR² = MN² - NR²

MR = √(10² - 6²)

MR = √(100 - 36)

MR = √64

MR = 8

Putting the values of MR and QR in equation (i), we get,

MQ = MR + RQ

MQ = 8 + 3

MQ = 11

Hence the length of MQ is 11 units.

Yohanne and Mikaela completed a 1-km race. Yohanne finished the race 1 minute after Mikaela. If the speed of Mikaela is 50 meters per minute faster than Yohanne's speed, how many minutes did it take Yohanne to finish the race?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of the race track [tex]l=1\ km\ or\ 1000\ m[/tex]

Suppose the speed of Yohanne is [tex]v_y=x\ m/min.[/tex]

then  Mikaela speed is [tex]v_m=50+x[/tex]

the difference in the finishing time is 1 minute i.e.

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{1000}{x}-\dfrac{1000}{50+x}=1\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{50+x-x}{x(50+x)}=\dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{50}{x(50+x)}=\dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\\Rightarrow x^2+50x-50,000=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2+250x-200x-50,000=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x+250)(x-200)=0\\\\\Rightarrow x=200\ m/min.[/tex]
