A survey team is trying to estimate the height of a mountain above a level plain. From one point on the plain, the team observes that the angle of elevation to the top of the mountain is 25o. From a point 1,000 feet closer to the mountain along the plain, the team finds that the angle of elevation is 29o. How tall (in feet) is the mountain? Round to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

The height of the mountain is 2936.39 feet.

Given,

In the question:

The angle of elevation to the top of the mountain is 25°.

To find the height of the mountain, we can draw triangles as in the image attached.

Now, According to the question:

Let's call the height of the mountain 'h', and the distance from the first point (25degrees) to the mountain 'x'.

Then, we can use the tangent relation of the angles:

tan(29) = h/x

tan(25) = h/(x+1000)

tan(25) is equal to 0.4663, and tan(29) is equal to 0.5543, so:

h/x = 0.5543 -> x = h/0.5543

using this value of x in the second equation:

h/(x+1000) = 0.6009

h/(h/0.5543 + 1000) = 0.4663

h = 0.4663 * (h/0.5543 + 1000)

h = 0.8412h + 466.3

0.1588h = 466.3

h = 466.3 / 0.1588 = 2936.39 feet

Hence, the height of the mountain is 2936.39 feet.

you raise pigs when you purchase the pig it weigh 46 pounds with in 5-6 months you pig will gain 380% in weight how much should it weigh by then round to the nearest whole number

Answers

The weight of the pigs is 220.8 pounds.

How to calculate the value?

From the information, when you raise pigs when you purchase the pig it weigh 46 pounds with in 5-6 months you pig will gain 380% in weight.

Therefore, the weight by then will be:

= Normal weight + ( Percentage × Previous weight)

= 46 + (380% × 46)

= 46 + 174.8

= 220.8

The weight is 220.8 pounds.

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We know that Hobby Land sells art supplies two different ways.

We can represent the situation with a system of equations

Where x is the cost of one easel and y represents the cost of one paint set.

Now, we must solve the system of equations.

We can multiply equation (1) by -4

[tex]\begin{gathered} -4(x+y)=-4(139) \\ -4x-4y=-556\ldots(3) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, we can add (3) + (2)

[tex]\begin{gathered} -4x-4y=-556 \\ 4x+7y=781 \\ -------------- \\ 3y=225 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, we can solve the equation for y

[tex]\begin{gathered} 3y=225 \\ y=\frac{225}{3}=75 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Finally, to find x we can replace the value of y in the equation (1)

Consider the following equation find the X- and y- Intercepts, if possible

Answers

Answer:

x-intercept: (-1/2, 0)

y-intercept: (0, 1)

Explanation:

The x-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the x-axis, so to find the x-intercept, we need to replace y = 0 on the given equation and solve for x

y - 2x = 1

0 - 2x = 1

-2x = 1

-2x/(-2) = 1/(-2)

x = -1/2

Then, the x-intercept is (-1/2, 0)

The y-intercept can be calculated replacing x = 0 and solving for y, so

y - 2x = 1

y - 2(0) = 1

y - 0 = 1

y = 1

Then, the y-intercept is (0, 1)

Therefore, the answers are

x-intercept: (-1/2, 0)

y-intercept: (0, 1)

Determine the perimeter of this shape. Use 3.14 for pi. the numbers are 12m and 15 m

We are asked to find the perimeter of the figure. To do that we will add the perimeters of the semi-circle and the rectangle.

To determine the perimeter of the semi-circle we will use the following formula:

[tex]P_{c\text{ }}=\frac{\pi D}{2}[/tex]

The diameter is 12 m. Replacing in the formula we get:

[tex]P_c=\frac{\pi(12m)}{2}[/tex]

Solving the operations:

[tex]P_c=\frac{3.14(12)}{2}=6.28m[/tex]

Now we will find the perimeter of the rectangle by adding the length of all of its sides:

Now, the perimeter of the figure is the sum of the perimeters we found:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P=P_c+P_R \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

It is a parabola that is facing downwards, therefore, the vertex of this parabola, (x,y) is the maximum of the function where

x is the amount of books that the author must sell for the most profit, and

The max profit per day is $450.

The amount of of books the author must sell for the most profit is 1500 books.

The point-slope form of a line is:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where (x1, y1) is a point on the line, and m is the slope

Replacing with point (-4, -2), we get:

y + 2 = m(x + 4)

x = 5

B. Are vertical angles also complementary angles?

No, vertical angles are angles that are congruent to each other or in other words, equal. In the equation above (8x + 3) = (9x - 2). If I were to plug 5 into the equation I would get

(8(5) + 3) = (9(5) - 2)

(40 + 3) = (45 - 2)

  43 = 43

Complementary angles equal to 90°. It wouldn't make sense to add these numbers together because I would end up with a fraction if I set the equation equal to 90°

I hope this helps!

14%

The length of the longest slide is what inches the other two sides will each be what inches in length?

Answers

We know that the rod from which we made the triangle is 13 in long, this means that the perimeter of the triangle. from the diagram given we notice that the perimeter is:

[tex]x+(x-1)+(x-1)[/tex]

equating this to 13 and solving for x we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+(x-1)+(x-1)=13 \\ 3x-2=13 \\ 3x=13+2 \\ 3x=15 \\ x=\frac{15}{3} \\ x=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the value of x=5 which means that the longest side measure 5 inches. To determine the length of the other sides we notice that they are given by x-1, which means that their length is 5-1=4 inches,

Therefore, the length of the longest side is 5 inches. The other two sides will each be 4 inches in length.
