the angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point 42m away from the base on level ground is 36 find the height of the tower
Answer:
30.51 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The distance from the point to the base of the tower = 42 m, the angle of elevation = 36°.
According to sine rule if a,b,c are the sides of a triangle and its respective opposite angles are A, B, C. Therefore:
[tex]\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}=\frac{c}{sin(C)}[/tex]
Let the height of the tower be a and the angle opposite the height be A = angle of elevation = 36°
Also let the distance from the point to the base of the tower be b = 42 m, and the angle opposite the base of the tower be B
To find B, since the angle between the height of the tower and the base is 90°, we use:
B + 36° + 90° = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)
B + 126 = 180
B = 180 - 126
B = 54°
Therefore using sine rule:
[tex]\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}\\\\\frac{a}{sin(36)}=\frac{42}{sin(54)}\\\\ a=\frac{42*sin(36)}{sin(54)}\\ \\a=30.51\ meters[/tex]
The height of the tower is 30.51 meters
How many bicycles and how many skateboards are in the shop? Show your work.
Answer:75
Step-by-step explanation:54+21
Answer:
15 bicycles, 6 skateboards
Step-by-step explanation:
We are looking for the number of skateboards and the number of bicycles. Those two numbers are our unknowns.
We define variables for those two numbers.
Let s = number of skateboards.
Let b = number of bicycles.
A skateboard has 4 wheels. s number of skateboards have 4s wheels.
A bicycle has 2 wheels. b bicycles have 2b wheels.
The total number of wheels is 4s + 2b.
The total number of wheels is 54, so our first equation is
4s + 2b = 54
The total number of skateboards and bicycles combined is s + b.
We are told the total number of skateboards and bicycles combined is 21.
The second equation is
s + b = 21
We have a system of two equations in two unknowns.
4s + 2b = 54
s + b = 21
We can solve it by the elimination method.
Rewrite the first equation below.
Multiply both sides of the second equation by 2 and write it below that. Then add the equations.
4s + 2b = 54
(+) -2s - 2b = -42
-----------------------------
2s = 12
s = 6
There are 6 skateboards.
Now we substitute 6 for s in the second original equation and solve for b.
s + b = 21
6 + b = 21
b = 15
There are 15 bicycles.
Answer: 15 bicycles, 6 skateboards

Quiana took out a loan to pay for a new car. Initially she owned the lender $15,234.68. She has repaid $247.43 of the loan each month for the past 5 months. What is the net changed to the loan from Quiana's perspective over the past 5 months?
Answer:
[tex]Net\ Change = \$13997.53[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Debt = \$15,234.68[/tex]
[tex]Monthly\ Payment= \$247.43[/tex]
[tex]Duration = 5\ months[/tex]
Required
Determine the net change
First, we need to determine the total repaid amount;
[tex]Amount = Monthly\ Payment * Duration[/tex]
Substitute values for Monthly Payment and Duration
[tex]Amount = \$247.43 * 5[/tex]
[tex]Amount = \$1237.15[/tex]
The net change is the difference between the loan amount and the repaid amount
[tex]Net\ Change = Loan\ Amount - Repaid\ Amount[/tex]
[tex]Net\ Change = \$15,234.68 - \$1237.15[/tex]
[tex]Net\ Change = \$13997.53[/tex]
Hence, the net change over the period of 5 months is $13997.53
Answer: Quiana's initial loan amount is -15, 234.68. This is the total amount of money she must pay back to the lender.
Select the equations of the lines that are parallel to the line whose equation is y= 3x +5.
-3x + y = 8
3y = 9x
y=- jx
16x + 2y = 12
Answer:
-3x + y = 8.
3y = 9x.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of the lines we convert to slope-intercept form, which is
y = mx + c (m is the slope.)
The slope of y = 3x + 5 is therefore 3.
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Finding the slope of the given lines:
-3x + y = 8
y = 3x + 8 - slope is 3 so this is parallel to y = 3x + 5.
3y = 9x
Divide through by 3:
y = 3x - so this is also parallel to 3x + 5.
y = -jx The slope is -j so it is not parallel.
16x + 2y = 12
2y = -16x + 12
y = -8x + 6 - Not parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:
A student who is 5 1/4 feet tall has a shadow that is 2 feet and 10 1/2 inches long. At the same time. a flag pole has a shadow that is 10 1/2 feel long. How tall, to the nearest inch, is the flag pole?
Answer:
The height of the flag pole is approximately 19 feet and 2 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let suppose that length of the shadow of the object is directly proportional to its height. Hence:
[tex]l \propto h[/tex]
[tex]l = k\cdot h[/tex]
Where:
[tex]h[/tex] - Height of the object, measured in inches.
[tex]l[/tex] - Shadow length of the object, measured in inches.
[tex]k[/tex] - Proportionality constant, dimensionless.
Now, let is find the value of the proportionality constant: ([tex]h = 5\,\frac{1}{4} \,ft[/tex] and [tex]l = 2\,ft\,\,10\,\frac{1}{2}\,in[/tex])
[tex]h = \frac{21}{4}\,ft[/tex]
[tex]h = \left(\frac{21}{4}\,ft \right)\cdot \left(12\,\frac{in}{ft} \right)[/tex]
[tex]h = 63\,in[/tex]
[tex]l = (2\,ft)\cdot \left(12\,\frac{in}{ft} \right) + \frac{21}{2}\,in[/tex]
[tex]l = 24\,in + \frac{21}{2}\,in[/tex]
[tex]l = \frac{48}{2}\,in+\frac{21}{2}\,in[/tex]
[tex]l = \frac{69}{2}\,in[/tex]
Then,
[tex]k = \frac{l}{h}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{\frac{69}{2}\,in }{63\,in}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{69}{126}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{23}{42}[/tex]
The equation is represented by [tex]l = \frac{23}{42}\cdot h[/tex]. If [tex]l = 10\,\frac{1}{2}\,ft[/tex], then:
[tex]l = \frac{21}{2}\,ft[/tex]
[tex]l = \left(\frac{21}{2}\,ft \right)\cdot \left(12\,\frac{in}{ft} \right)[/tex]
[tex]l = 126\,in[/tex]
The height of the flag pole is: ([tex]l = 126\,in[/tex], [tex]k = \frac{23}{42}[/tex])
[tex]h = \frac{l}{k}[/tex]
[tex]h = \frac{126\,in}{\frac{23}{42} }[/tex]
[tex]h = \frac{5292}{23}\,in[/tex]
[tex]h = 230\,\frac{2}{23}\,in[/tex]
[tex]h = \frac{115}{6}\,ft\,\frac{2}{23}\,in[/tex]
[tex]h = 19\,\frac{1}{6}\,ft \,\frac{2}{23}\,in[/tex]
[tex]h = 19\,ft\,\,2\,\frac{2}{23}\,in[/tex]
[tex]h = 19\,ft\,\,2\,in[/tex]
The height of the flag pole is approximately 19 feet and 2 inches.
Positive numbers are not closed under subtraction. Give an example of this 1
below.
Answer:
5 -3 = 2
3-5 = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we want to examine the validity of the statement by the use of an example.
Firstly, we need to understand the meaning of the fact that they are ‘closed’
By saying these numbers are closed under this arithmetic operation i.e subtraction, we directly mean that they obey the closure property.
Now, to obey the closure property means that if we move either way i.e by switching the numbers and performing the same arithmetic operation of subtraction, we are supposed to get same answer.
What this means in terms of examples is as follows;
Consider two positive numbers, 5 and 3
Now we know that 5-3 = 2
To check if the closure property is obeyed, switch the place of the numbers.
This means we would have;
3-5 = -2
We can see that both results are not the same. We can then conclude that the arithmetic operation of subtraction is not closed or does not obey the closure property for positive numbers.
Sixty-five percent of employees make judgements about their co-workers based on the cleanliness of their desk. You randomly select 8 employees and ask them if they judge co-workers based on this criterion. The random variable is the number of employees who judge their co-workers by cleanliness. Which outcomes of this binomial distribution would be considered unusual?
Answer:
The outcomes of this binomial distribution that would be considered unusual is {0, 1, 2, 8}.
Step-by-step explanation:
The outcomes provided are:
(A) 0, 1, 2, 6, 7, 8
(B) 0, 1, 2, 7, 8
(C) 0, 1, 7, 8
(D) 0, 1, 2, 8
Solution:
The random variable X can be defined as the number of employees who judge their co-workers by cleanliness.
The probability of X is:
P (X) = 0.65
The number of employees selected is:
n = 8
An unusual outcome, in probability theory, has a probability of occurrence less than or equal to 0.05.
Since outcomes 0 and 1 are contained in all the options, we will check for X = 2.
Compute the value of P (X = 2) as follows:
[tex]P(X=2)={8\choose 2}(0.65)^{2}(0.35)^{8-2}[/tex]
[tex]=28\times 0.4225\times 0.001838265625\\=0.02175\\\approx 0.022<0.05[/tex]
So X = 2 is unusual.
Similarly check for X = 6, 7 and 8.
P (X = 6) = 0.2587 > 0.05
X = 6 not unusual
P (X = 7) = 0.1373 > 0.05
X = 7 not unusual
P (X = 8) = 0.0319
X = 8 is unusual.
Thus, the outcomes of this binomial distribution that would be considered unusual is {0, 1, 2, 8}.

A Gallup poll asked 1200 randomly chosen adults what they think the ideal number of children for a family is. Of this sample, 53% stated that they thought 2 children is the ideal number. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all US adults that think 2 children is the ideal number.
Answer:
at 95% Confidence interval level: 0.501776 < p < 0.558224
Step-by-step explanation:
sample size n = 1200
population proportion [tex]\hat p[/tex]= 53% - 0.53
At 95% confidence interval level;
level of significance ∝ = 1 - 0.95
level of significance ∝ = 0.05
The critical value for [tex]z_{\alpha/2} = z _{0.05/2}[/tex]
the critical value [tex]z _{0.025}= 1.96[/tex] from the standard normal z tables
The standard error S.E for the population proportion can be computed as follows:
[tex]S,E = \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat p \times (1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]S,E = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.53 \times (1-0.53)}{1200}}[/tex]
[tex]S,E = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.53 \times (0.47)}{1200}}[/tex]
[tex]S,E = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.2491}{1200}}[/tex]
[tex]S,E = 0.0144[/tex]
Margin of Error E= [tex]z_{\alpha/2} \times S.E[/tex]
Margin of Error E= 1.96 × 0.0144
Margin of Error E= 0.028224
Given that the confidence interval for the proportion is 95%
The lower and the upper limit for this study is as follows:
Lower limit: [tex]\hat p - E[/tex]
Lower limit: 0.53 - 0.028224
Lower limit: 0.501776
Upper limit: [tex]\hat p + E[/tex]
Upper limit: 0.53 + 0.028224
Upper limit: 0.558224
Therefore at 95% Confidence interval level: 0.501776 < p < 0.558224

There are two types of boxes containing mangoes. Each box of the larger type contains 4 more mangoes than the number of mangoes contained in 8 boxes of the smaller types. Each box has 100 mangoes. Find the number of mangoes contained in the smaller box.
Answer:
12 mangoes
Step-by-step explanation:
Two types of boxes contains mangoes
The larger box contain 4 mangoes than the number of mangoes that is present in 8 smaller box
Each of the box have a total of 100 mangoes
Let y represent the number of mangoes that is present in the smaller box
Therefore, the number of mangoes in the smaller box can be calculated as follows
8y + 4= 100
Collect the like terms
8y= 100-4
8y= 96
Divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is 8
8y/8= 96/8
y= 12
Hence the number of mangoes that is present in the smaller box is 12

Solve the equation below for y. 6x – 3y = 36 A. y = 2x − 12 B. y = 12 − 2x C. y = 12x + 6 D. y = 6 – 12x
Answer:
y=-12+2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation was transformed step-by-step to isolate y on one side, and we obtained y = 2x - 12 as the final solution.
Hence, the correct answer is A. y = 2x - 12.
Given is an equation 6x - 3y = 36, we need to solve for y.
To solve the equation 6x - 3y = 36 for y, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation.
Here's the step-by-step process:
Start with the given equation: 6x - 3y = 36
Get rid of the constant term (36) on the right side by subtracting 36 from both sides:
6x - 3y - 36 = 36 - 36
6x - 3y = 0
Divide both sides of the equation by -3 to isolate y:
(6x - 3y) / -3 = 0 / -3
(6x)/(-3) - (3y)/(-3) = 0
-2x + y = 0
Add 2x to both sides to isolate y:
-2x + y + 2x = 0 + 2x
y = 2x
So, the equation was transformed step-by-step to isolate y on one side, and we obtained y = 2x - 12 as the final solution.
Hence, the correct answer is A. y = 2x - 12.

Answer: The frog fell asleep for 4 nights.
Step-by-step explanation: First, he climbs up 3m every night. there are 16 nights before he gets to 29m. He has not climbed up for the 16th day so 15*3= 45. 45-29= 16. 16/4=4. The frog slept for 4 nights.
The function f(x)=x^2 + ax + b has a minimum at (3,9) what are the values of a and b
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is f(x)=x^2 + ax + b
Derivate the function:
● f'(x)= 2x + a
Solve the equation f'(x)=0 to find a
The minimum is at (3,9)
Replace x with 9
● 0 = 2×3 + a
● 0 = 6 + a
● a = -6
So the value of a is -6
Hence the equation is x^2 -6x+b
We have a khown point at (3,9)
● 9 = 3^2 -6×3 +b
● 9 = 9 -18 + b
● 9 = -9 +b
● b = 18
So the equation is x^2-6x+18
Verify by graphing the function.
The vetex is (3,9) and it is a minimum so the equation is right

Your baseball team has won 6 games and lost 4 games. If the team
does not lose any more games, how many games must the team win
to have a win : loss ratio of 2:1? Explain your answer.
Answer:
two games must be won by the team
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the no. of games played by x, since team
does not lose any more games.
Then total game won = 6+x
total game lost = 4
win: loss = 6+x : 4
given ratio of win and loss = 2:1
6+x : 4 = 2: 1
6+x = 8
=> x = 8-6 = 2
Thus, two games must be won by the team
then total win will be = 6+2 = 8
and loss = 4
ration of win : loss = 8:4 = 2:1

find the last common denominator for these two rational expressions
Answer:
Least common denominator = (x - 1)²(x - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Least common denominator of two rational expressions = LCM of the denominator of the expressions.
[tex]\frac{x^3}{x^2-2x+1}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{-3}{x^{2}-3x+2}[/tex]
Factorize the denominators of these rational expressions,
Since, [tex]x^{2}-2x+1[/tex] = x² - 2x + 1
= (x - 1)²
And x² - 3x + 2 = x² - 2x - x + 2
= x(x - 2) -1(x - 2)
= (x - 1)(x - 2)
Now LCM of the denominators = (x - 1)²(x - 2)
Therefore, Least common denominator will be (x - 1)²(x - 2).
