You are measuring the height of a Ferris wheel at an amusement
park. You are standing 125 feet from its base. You measure the angle
of elevation from a point on the ground to the top of the Ferris wheel
to be 51°. Estimate the height of the Ferris wheel. Round your
answer to the nearest foot.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

154 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle is formed, where the height of the wheel (h) is one leg,  the distance between you and the base of the wheel is the other leg, and the distance between you and the top of the wheel is the hypotenuse (the angle included between the last two sides is 51°)

From definition:

tan(51°) = opposite/adjacent

tan(51°) = h/125

h = tan(51°)*125

h = 154 ft

A man is able to run an arc of 150° along a circular track, whose radius is 150 ft. How far did the man run?

Answers

Answer:

392.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the circumference of the track. This is 2 * 3.14 * 150 = 942 ft. 150° is 5 / 12 of 360° (the full circle) so that means that the minor arc it forms (which is also the arc the man ran) is 5/12 of the circumference. This means that the answer is 5/12 * 942 = 392.5 ft. Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

length of the arc = angle/360 * 2 * pi * r

[tex]\frac{1}{2} z[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{4} + \frac{1}{4} z[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2} z - \frac{1}{4} z[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{z}{4} = \frac{-3}{4}[/tex]

The value of z in the equation (1/2)z = - 3/4 + (1/4)z is 3/2.

What is an equation?

An equation is written in the form of variables and constants separated by the operation of multiplication and division,

An equation states that terms in different forms on both sides of the equality sign are equal.

Multiplication and division do not separate the terms of an equation.

given, (1/2)z = - 3/4 + (1/4)z and we have to find the value of z or solve for z.

∴ (1/2)z = - 3/4 + (1/4)z.

(1/2)z - (1/4)z = 3/4.

(1/2)z = 3/4.

z = (3/4)×(2/1).

z = 6/4.

z = 3/2.

Archie plays a word board game. He places 98
lettered tiles and 2 blank tiles in a bag. Players
will draw tiles from the bag one at a time
without looking.
What is the probability that the first tile drawn
will be a blank tile? Labeled with a letter? A
vowel? A consonant?
Select each type of tile to see its probability.

Answers

Answer:

blank: 0.02

lettered: 0.98

vowel: 0.42

consonant: 0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, the number of tiles of each letter are shown.

number of blank outcomes: 2

number of lettered outcomes: 98

number of vowel outcomes: 9 + 12 + 9 + 8 + 4 = 42

number of consonant outcomes: 98 - 42 = 56

Total number of outcomes: 100

Probability that first tile drawn is a blank tile: 2/100 = 0.02

Probability that first tile drawn is labeled with a letter: 98/100 = 0.98

Probability that first tile drawn is a  vowel: 42/100 = 0.42

Probability that first tile drawn is a consonant: 56/100 = 0.56

a + 2,500 < 32,000; a < 29,500

a + 2,500 < 32,000; a < 34,500

a + 2,500 > 32,000; a > 29,500

Answers

Answer:

a + 2,500 < 32,000; a < 29,500

Step-by-step explanation:

This shows the 2,500 can be adapted to become less than 29,500 in additional measure when flying.

As 2,500+ 29,500 = 32,000

The a+2,500<32,000 is also correct as this shows less than and confirms that the biplane stays below 32,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

A plumber charges $130 2 hours of work and $235 for 5 hours of workWhat is the of change in dollars per hour

Answers

Answer:

235

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure the rates per hr.

110/3 = 36 2/3

160/5 = 32.

So, the rates are not the same.

Knowing a bit about plumbers, they normally charge a basic fee to just show up, and then they charge per hr.

In cases like these, where we're asked to project to a new data point (in this case an 8-hr job), you should immediately think of a graph. The x-axis would be the hours worked. The y-axis would be the charge for the work (the cost of the job).

We're given two pairs of values:

(3,110) and (5,160).

The next step is to fit a line to them.

y = mx+b is the general equation for a line.

m = the slope = rise/run = change in y / change in x

Call the change in y, dy (for delta y).

Call the change in x, dx (for delta x).

m = dy/dx = 50/2 = 25

The slope is thus 25, which means for each hour, the price goes up by $25. That means the plumber charges $25/hr.

We also know the plumber charges $110 for a 3-hr job. 3*25 = $75. So the base charge would be $110-75 = $35.

y = 25x + 35

Checking this formula at x=3, we know it is 110.

Checking it at x=5, we obtain:

y = 25*5 + 35 = 125 + 35 = 160.

That checks.

Now to figure an 8-hr job, set x=8 and use the equation"

y = 25*8 + 35.

y = 200 + 35.

y = 235.

That means an 8-hr job costs $235.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we write this sentence, we have:

((-2/x) + (5/y)) / ((3/y) - (2/x))

If we do LCM in the denominators of each fraction, we have:

((-2y+5x)/xy) / ((3x - 2y)/xy)

We can cut the 'xy' in the numerator and denominator of the whole fraction:

(-2y+5x) / (3x - 2y)

The final expression we have is (-2y+5x) / (3x - 2y)

An artist can sell 20 copies of a painting at $100 each, but for each additional copy he makes, the value of each painting will go down by a dollar. Thus, if 22 copies are made, each will sell for $98. How many copies should he make to maximize his sales?

Answers

Answer:

40 more paintings in order to maximize sales making a total of 60 paintings

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= no.of copies above 20

Total Sales(x) = (number of copies)(price per copy)

Sales (x)= (20 +x)(100 –x)

Open bracket

=1200-20x+100x-x^2

=1200+80x-x^2

Derivative of the sales

80-2x=0

80=2x

Divide both sides by 2

40=x

Because Sales(x)= –2, this is maximal by the second derivative test

The artist should make 40 more paintings in order to maximize sales making a total of 60 paintings.

The artist 60 copies should he make to maximize his sales

The artist can sell 20 copies at $100 each.

So, the total sales is:

Total =(20) * (100)

For each additional copy he makes, the value of each painting reduce by a dollar.

So, the total sales becomes

Total = (20 + x) * (100 - x)

Rewrite as:

[tex]y = (20 + x) * (100 - x)[/tex]

Expand

[tex]y = 2000 - 20x + 100x - x^2[/tex]

Evaluate the like terms

[tex]y = 2000 +80x - x^2[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]y' = 80 - 2x[/tex]

Set to 0

[tex]80 - 2x = 0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]- 2x = -80[/tex]

Divide both sides by -2

[tex]x = 40[/tex]

Recall that the initial copies is 20.

So, the new copies would be:

New = 20 + 40

New = 60

Hence, the artist 60 copies should he make to maximize his sales
