From his eye, which stands 1.62 meters above the ground, Amadou measures the
angle of elevation to the top of a prominent skyscraper to be 44°. If he is standing at a
horizontal distance of 164 meters from the base of the skyscraper, what is the height
of the skyscraper? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a meter if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

The height  of the skyscraper rounded to the nearest tenth of a meter is

160.0 meters.

The situation will form a right angle triangle.

The angle of elevation is 44 degrees. The horizontal distance of 164

meters from the base of the skyscraper is the adjacent side of the triangle.

Part of the height of the skyscraper is the opposite side of the triangle formed .

Using trigonometric ratio,

tan 44° = opposite / adjacent

tan 44° = h / 164

cross multiply

h = 164 × tan 44°

h = 158.372959068

Recall the angle of elevation was form from his eyes above the ground of

1.62 meters.

Therefore, the height of the skyscraper can be calculated below:

height of the skyscraper = 158.372959068 + 1.62 = 159.992959068

height of the skyscraper ≈ 160.0 meters

Applying derivatives, it is found that the correct options are:

A. [tex]y^{\prime\prime}(x) = -\sin{x} + e^{-x}[/tex]

D. [tex]y - y^{\prime\prime\prime\prime}(x) = 3x[/tex]

The function given is:

[tex]f(x) = \sin{x} + e^{-x} + 3x[/tex]

It's first four derivatives are:

[tex]y^{\prime}(x) = \cos{x} - e^{-x} + 3[/tex]

[tex]y^{\prime\prime}(x) = -\sin{x} + e^{-x}[/tex]

Hence, option A is correct.

[tex]y^{\prime\prime\prime}(x) = -cos{x} - e^{-x}[/tex]

[tex]y^{\prime\prime\prime}(x) \neq y^{\prime}(x)[/tex], hence, option B is incorrect.

[tex]y^{\prime\prime\prime\prime}(x) = sin{x} + e^{-x}[/tex]

It is not the multiplication of the first and of the third derivative, hence option C is incorrect.

[tex]y - y^{\prime\prime\prime\prime}(x) = 3x[/tex]

The cost of producing key chains with the company logo printed on them consists
of a onetime setup fee of $265.00 plus $0.90 for each key chain produced. This
cost can be calculated using the formula C = 265.00 +0.90p, where p represents
the number of key chains produced and C is the cost. Use the formula to calculate
the cost of producing 2700 key chains.

Answers

Answer:

$2695

Step-by-step explanation:

$265 + $0.90p=C

To find out the value of C (cost), we must solve the equation by replacing P (number of keychains) with the given value, 2700.

265 + 0.90(2700) = C

Now, we use order of operations. (PEMDAS)

In this case, the parentheses stand for multiplication. Since multiplication comes first, we multiply 0.90 by 2700.

The product of 0.90(2700) is 2430.

Our new equation should look like this

265 + 2430=C

Adding those together you get 2695, to finish this off, C=$2695

(Side note: be sure to identify what the value is, for example 2695 is the cost of producing 2700 key chains, meaning it's $)

y-intercept at x = 0 is:

- 9y = 27y = -3

Connect the two points (9, 0) and (0, -3) with dotted line (because of <) and shade below line (because y < ).

B)  (y-3) ≤ -4/3 (x+7)

if you buy an suitcase at $75 with 15% discount, you will pay 75 - 11.25 = 63.75

divide 20% by a 100 =0.2 than times 0.2 by $85 which will equal 17 subtract 17 from $85

let (s) be the stream velocity

s = 6 - v

going upstream

24 = (v - s)6

What is the constant of proportionality?

Answers

The constant of proportionality is usually used in stuff regarding to coordinates. It basically is that values increase or decrease proportionally to another value, such as on a graph, say you have a linear equation that gains 4 units up for every 3 units it moves to the right. Those two values are proportional because they'll continue to move at the same predictable rate. The image below is that line. It doesn't just apply to linear equations though, it can apply to other kinds, like exponential or absolute value equations.
