A Ladder Is Placed 8 Feet Away From A Wall. The Distance From The Ground Straight To The Top Of The Wall

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

17.89 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle so we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

8^2 +16^2 = c^2

64+ 256 = c^2

320 =c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(320) = sqrt(c^2)

sqrt(64*5) = c

sqrt(64) sqrt(5) =c

8 sqrt(5) = c

17.88854382=c

17.89 ft

Given:-

A ladder is placed 8 feet away from a wall. The distance from the ground straight to the top of the wall is 16 feet.

Find:-

What is the height of the ladder?

solution:-

A ladder is placed 8 feet away from a wall. The distance from the ground straight to the top of the wall is 16 feet.

so it is a right angle triangle

we know that,

in a right angle triangle, According to the Pythagorean theorom,

[tex]\boxed{\sf{l^2+b^2=h^2 }}[/tex]

where

l= legs b=baseh=hypotenuse

According to the question, [tex]\sf{8^2+16^2=h^2 }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{64+256=h^2 }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ h^2=320 }[/tex]

We have

(a + bx) / (a - bx) = (b + cx) / (b - cx)

==>   (a + bx) (b - cx) = (a - bx) (b + cx)

==>   ab + (b ² - ac) x - bcx ² = ab + (ac - b ²) x - bcx ²

==>   (b ² - ac) x = (ac - b ²) x

==>   b ² - ac = ac - b ²

==>   2b ² = 2ac

==>   b ² = ac … … … [1]

Similarly, you would find

(a + bx) / (a - bx) = (c + dx) / (c - dx)

==>   ad = bc … … … [2]

and

(b + cx) / (b - cx) = (c + dx) / (c - dx)

==>   c ² = bd … … … [3]

Now:

c ² = bd   ==>   b = c ² / d

b ² = ac   ==>   c = b ² / a

ad = bc   ==>   d = bc / a

and we find

d / c = (bc / a) / (b ² / a) = c / b

and

c / b = (b ² / a) / (c ² / d) = (b ² d) / (a c ²) = b / a

which is to say, the ratio between d and c is equal to the ratio between c and b, and also equal to the ratio between b and a. Therefore (a, b, c, d) are in a geometric progression.

From the diagram below, of the distance between the tree and point B is 125 meters, and the angle of depression from the top of the tree to point B is 46 degrees, how tall is the tree in meters? (round to the nearest whole meter)

Answers

Answer:

a. 129 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of the tree and the point B are;

The horizontal distance between the tree and point B, x = 125 meters

The angle of depression from the top of the tree to the point B, θ = 46°

Let h represent the height of the tree

The horizontal line at the top of the tree that forms the angle of depression with the line of sight from the top of the tree to the point B is parallel to the horizontal distance from the point B to the tree, therefore;

The angle of depression = The angle of elevation = 46°

By trigonometry, we have;

tan(θ) = h/x

∴ h = x × tan(θ)

Plugging in the values of the variables gives;

h = 125 × tan(46°) ≈ 129.44

The height of the tree, h ≈ 129 meters

The cost per hour of running an assembly line in a
manufacturing plant is a function of the number of
items produced per hour. The cost function is
C(x) 0.3x2 – 1.2x + 2, where C (x) is the cost per
hour in thousands of dollars, and x is the number of
items produced per hour, in thousands. Determine
the minimum production level, and the number of
items produced to achieve it. Include a final written
statement.

Answers

Answer:

the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is no mistake in the problem description, I read the following function :

C(x) = y = 0.3x² - 1.2x + 2

I don't know if you learned this already, but to find the extreme values of a function you need to build the first derivative of the function y' and find its solutions for y'=0.

the first derivative of C(x) is

0.6x - 1.2 = y'

0.6x - 1.2 = 0

0.6x = 1.2

x = 2

C(2) = 0.3×2² - 1.2×2 + 2 = 0.3×4 - 2.4 + 2 = 1.2-2.4+2 = 0.8

so, the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.

Parallelogram PARL is similar to parallelogram WXYZ. If AP = 7, PL = 15, and WZ = 45, find the value of c.

Answers

Answer:

c = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

**I assume that side WX in my diagram (attached as an image below) is the value of C that we're looking for. ALSO, the sizes and lengths of the parallelograms are NOT to scale.**

If two parallelograms are similar, that means the lengths of the corresponding sides have EQUAL ratios.

PL corresponds with WZ. To get from 15 to 45, you would multiply 15 by 3, so the ratio of the legnths of the corresponding sides between these two parallelograms is 1:3.

With that in mind, we can apply this ratio to find WX.

We know that AP has a length of 7, so we will multiply that by 3, getting a value of 21, and 7:21 ratio is the same as 1:3.

c = 21

Tom received a $70 gift card for a cafe. He used it to buy some coffee that cost $7.73 per pound. After buying the coffee, he had $23.62 left on his card. How many pounds of coffee did he buy.

Answers

Answer: He bought 6 pounds of coffee.

Step-by-step explanation:

Money he have = 70

money he used to buy = 70.00 - 23.62 = 46.38

so

7.73 dollar = 1 pound

1 dollar = 1/(7.73) = 100/773 pound

46.38 dollar = (100/773) * 46.38 = 6 pound

Answers

Answer:

(A, B, D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's evaluate each answer choice:

"The independent variable is the number of people"

Correct. The number of people is independent and DOESN'T depend on the total cost to change.

"The initial value (initial fee) for the pinic is $40"

Correct. In this table, every 3 people increases the cost by $6. So that means 6 people would increase the cost by $12. From the first row of 6 people and $52, if we "subtracted" 6 people and "subtracted" $12, we would get a value of 0 people with a total cost of $40.

"The rate of change is $8.67 per person"

Wrong. To find the rate of change (also called slope), use this method below:

(y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)

(6, 52) (9, 58)

x_1 = 6

x_2 = 9

y_1 = 52

y_2 = 58

(58 - 52)/(9-6)

6/3 = 2

The rate of change is 2, not 8.67.

"As the number of people increases, the total cost of the picnic increases."

Correct. As you can see in the table, as the number of people increase (6, 9, 12, 15), the total cost increases as well (52, 58, 64, 70).

"If 4 people attended the picnic, the total cost would be $46."

Wrong. In one of the previous answer choices, we found out that the rate of change, or the cost per person at picnic, is $2, and the intial fee is $40. From this info, we can form this equation:

y = 2x + 40

And if we plug in 4 people into this equation, we DON'T end up with total cost of $46:

2(4) + 40

8 + 40 = 48

The total cost for 4 people is $48, NOT $46
