An electrician leans an extension ladder against the outside wall of a house so that it reaches an electric box 28 feet up. The ladder makes an angle of 64 ∘with the ground. Find the length of the ladder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

31.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

sin = opp/hyp

sin64 = 28/hyp

hyp = 28/sin64

use calculator

hyp = 31.15285433330529

Rounded

31.2 ft

Answer 2

The length of the ladder needed to reach an electric box 28 feet up is 31.2 feet.

The ladder, the distance from the wall to the base of the ladder and the distance from the ground to the electric box forms a right angled triangle.

Trigonometric ratios shows the relationship between the sides and angles of a right angled triangle.

Let x represent the length of the ladder, hence:

sin(64) = 28 feet/x

x = 28 feet / sin(64)

x = 31.2 feet

Hence the length of the ladder needed to reach an electric box 28 feet up is 31.2 feet.

Estimate the perimeter and area of the figure to the nearest whole number. Please help!!

Answers

Answer:

29 ; 37

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is composed by a square, a rectangle, and a right triangle

The perimeter of the square is 6 units

The perimeter of the rectangle is 10 units

The triangle is composed by a side of 6 units and a side of 5 units

The third side can be find with the Pythagorean theorem

[tex]\sqrt{6^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{36 + 25} = \sqrt{61}[/tex] = 7,81025

The total perimeter is

6 + 10 + 5 + 7,81025 = 28,81025 = 29

Area of the square = 2^2 = 4 square units

Area of the rectangle = 6 x 3 = 18 square units

Area of the triangle =  (5 x 6)/2 = 15 square units

Total area = 4 + 18 + 15 = 37 square units

At the start of 2014, Mike's car is worth 12000. the car depreciates by 30 percent every year. how much is his car worth in 2017

Answers

Answer:

$4,116

Step-by-step explanation:

Worth of Mike's car at the start of 2014 = $12,000

If the car is said to depreciates every year by 30% = 30/100 = 0.3

The worth of the car at the start of 2017 is what we are to determine.

This means that the car depreciated by 30% (0.3) for 3 years since 2014 (2017 - 2014 = 3 yrs)

The worth at the start of 2017 would be calculated as follows:

12,000 × (1 - 0.3)³

= 12,000 × (0.7)³

= 12,000 × 0.343

= 4,116

Worth of the car at the start of 2017 would be $4,116

Find
(a) angle OCD

Answers

A I think is the answer

The measure of angle OCD from the given figure is 58°.

Given that, the points A, B, C and D lie on a circle Centre O.

What is the circle?

A circle is a two-dimensional figure formed by a set of points that are at a constant or at a fixed distance (radius) from a fixed point (center) on the plane. The fixed point is called the origin or center of the circle and the fixed distance of the points from the origin is called the radius.

Here, OC and OB are radius of a circle, then BOC is isosceles triangle

Now, ∠BOC+∠OBC+∠OCB=180°

50°+∠OBC+∠OBC=180°

⇒ 2∠OBC=130°

⇒ ∠OBC=65°

Here, ∠OCD=∠BCD-65°

⇒ x=123-65=58°

Hence, the measure of angle OCD from the given figure is 58°.

However, this answer is in radians, it is the literal measurement. One must convert into degrees so that the answer fits the format of the question. The conversion rate to switch between radians and degrees is the following,

Substitute,

What is a logarithm?

"A logarithm tells what exponent (or power) is needed to make a certain number, so logarithms are the inverse (opposite) of exponentiation. Just as an exponential function has three parts, a logarithm has three parts as well: a base, an argument, and an answer (also called power)".

For the given situation,

The equation is

[tex]-6(2)^{0.1x} = -100[/tex]

The equation can be expressed in logarithm as

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

⇒ [tex]x=log_{a}b[/tex]

So, [tex]-6(2)^{0.1x} = -100[/tex]

⇒ [tex]2^{0.1x}=\frac{-100}{-6} \\[/tex]

⇒ [tex]0.1x=log_{2}\frac{50}{3}[/tex]

⇒[tex]\frac{1}{10}x=log_{2} \frac{50}{3}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=10log_{2}\frac{50}{3}[/tex]

Brian spends 3 5 of his wages on rent and 1 3 on food. If he makes £735 per week, how much money does he have left?

Answers

Answer :

Brian has $49 left.

Step by step explanation :

Step 1 : Find how much money Brian spends on rent and food.

First question we should be asking is what is 3/5 of 735?

Let's find that.

[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{735}{1}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(3)(735)}{(5)(1)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{2205}{5}[/tex]

= 441

We know Brian spends $441 on rent. Now we find how much he spends on food.

[tex]\frac{1}{3} * \frac{735}{1}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(1)(735)}{(3)(1)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{735}{3}[/tex]

= 245

Brian spends $245 on food.

Step 2 : Add what he spends on rent and food together.

$441 + $245 = $686

Step 3 : To find out how much money Brian has left, we subtract $686 from $735.

$735 - $686 = $49

Conclusion : Brian has $49 left.

If a +b+c=9 and a square +b square +square =1 then ab+bc+ca

Answers

ab + bc + ca = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

(a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2(ab + bc + ca) , that is

9² = 1 + 2(ab + bc + ca)

81 = 1 + 2(ab + bc + ca) ← subtract 1 from both sides

80 = 2(ab + bc + ca) ← divide both sides by 2

Amber works as a waitress at a restaurant. She earns an hourly wage and also earns tips. One night, she worked 6 hours and earned a total of $69.20, which included tips of $15.50. Explain how the equation 6w + 15.5 = 69.2 represents this situation. Then, calculate Amber’s hourly wage.

Answers

Answer:

Hey there!

The given equation helps us understand the relationship between Amber's tips earned and the money she earned through her hourly wage. This information will add up to equal a grand total of $69.20.

We know that Amber earns $15.50 in tips during her 6 hour shift. Therefore, this is not considered part of her wage. This would be one of the constants of our equation.

We also know that Amber earns a fixed hourly wage, but we don't know what this wage is. We need to find w.

[tex]6w+15.5=\$69.20[/tex]

Subtract 15.5 from both sides of the equation (and get rid of the currency symbol).

[tex]6w=69.20-15.5\\6w=53.7[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 6.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{6w}{6}=\frac{53.7}{6}\\\\w=8.95[/tex]

Therefore, Amber's hourly wage is $8.95.

A line has the equation 3x–4y–12=0 what is the slope of this line

Answers

Answer:

The slope of this line is 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving this equation 3x–4y–12=0 for y puts the equation into the form

                                            y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line.

One way of solving for 4y here is to add 4y to both sides, obtaining:

                                           3x - 12 = 4y

Dividing all three terms by 4 yields

                                              y = (3/4)x - 3

The slope of this line is 3/4.
