A tree casts a shadow of 20 meters when the angle of elevation of the sun is 24°
Find the height of the tree to the nearest meter.

Answers

Answer 1

The height of the tree is 9 meters

What is angle of elevation?

This is the angle the line of sight makes with the horizontal.

Analysis:

The line of sight , the shadow length and height of tree form right angled triangle.

Let the height of tree be h

so that, tan 24 = h/20

h = 20 tan 24

h = 20(0.445) = 8.9m = 9m

In conclusion, the height of the tree is 9m.

What is the area of a triangle whose vertices are X(1, 1), Y(3, -1), and Z(4,4)?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in this diagram, point A represents point X, point B represents point Y, and point C represents point Z.

From the diagram, it appears as if [tex]\overline{XZ} \perp \overline{XY}[/tex]. To determine if this is the case, we can find the slopes of both segments.

[tex]m_{\overline{XZ}}=\frac{4-1}{4-1}=1\\m_{\overline{XY}}=\frac{-1-1}{3-1}=-1[/tex]

Since these slopes are negative reciprocals, we know that they are perpendicular.

This means we can use the formula [tex]A=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex], where b is the base (XY) and h is the height (XZ).

Note these are interchangeable.

Using the distance formula,

[tex]XY=\sqrt{(3-1)^{2}+(-1-1)^{2}}=2\sqrt{2}\\XZ=\sqrt{(4-1)^{2}+(4-1)^{2}}=3\sqrt{2}[/tex]

This means the area is [tex]\frac{1}{2}(2\sqrt{2})(3\sqrt{2})=\boxed{6}[/tex]

A second-degree polynomial takes the form

[tex]f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

for some constants a, b, and c. Such a function is continuous and differentiable everywhere in its domain.

Differentiating f(x) with respect to x gives

[tex]\dfrac{df}{dx} = 2ax + b[/tex]

We're told that

• f(x) is increasing on [0, 8]

• f(x) is decreasing on ]-10, 0]

and since df/dx is continuous, this tells us that df/dx = 0 when x = 0. It follows that b = 0, and we can write

[tex]f(x) = ax^2 + c[/tex]

We're also given that the curve passes through the point (-8, 4), which gives rise to the constraint

[tex]f(-8) = 64a - 8b + c = 4 \implies 64a + c = 4[/tex]

Since f(x) is decreasing on ]-10, 0], we have df/dx < 0 when x = -8, so

[tex]2ax+b < 0 \implies -16a < 0 \implies a > 0[/tex]

This means f(x) is minimized when x = 0, with min{f(x)} = c, so the co-domain of f(x) is the set {f(x) ∈ ℝ : f(x) ≥ c}.

Without another condition, that's all we can say about the co-domain. There are infinitely many choices for the constants a and c that satisfy the given conditions. For example,

a = 1, c = -60   ⇒   f(x) = x² - 60   ⇒   f(-8) = 4

⇒   co-domain = {f(x) ∈ ℝ : f(x) ≥ -60}

a = 2, c = -124   ⇒   f(x) = 2x² - 124   ⇒   f(-8) = 4

⇒   co-domain = {f(x) ∈ ℝ : f(x) ≥ -124}

etc.

a. Write an equation, using n for Zoe's number.

b. Solve your equation to find Zoe's number.​

Answers

Answer:

Zoe's number is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be 'n'

a) Multiply 'n' by 3 ⇒ n*3 = 3n

  Add 4 to '3n' ⇒ 3n + 4

Add 5 to 'n' ⇒  n +5

Multiply (n+ 5) by 2 ⇒ (n +5)*2 = 2n + 5*2 = 2n + 10

    3n + 4 = 2n + 10

b) 3n + 4 = 2n + 10

Subtract 4 form both sides

       3n = 2n + 10 - 4

       3n = 2n + 6

Subtract 2n from both sides

    3n - 2n = 6

Drag each tile to the correct location on the table. Each tile can be used more than once, but not all tiles will be used. Lewis is saving for a down payment of $8,750 on a house. The initial amount of money he has saved is $250, and the amount of money he plans on saving every month is $340. To model the situation, he created this equation, where x represents the number of months and y represents the total amount of savings: y = 250 + 340x.

Answers

The fill up for the 3rd  step is y - 250 =  340x.

The fill up of the 5th step is [tex]x = \frac{y-250}{340}[/tex]The fill up of the 6th step  is [tex]\frac{8750-250}{340} = 25 = x, \frac{8750-250}{340}= 34 = x[/tex]The justification for the 2nd step is subtraction PE.The justification for the 4th step is division PE.

What is the simplification  about?

Note that:

y-250 = 250 + 340 x - 250

y = 250 + 340x.

Make x the subject of the formula:

y - 250 =  340x.

then y-250/340 = x

Then  [tex]x = \frac{y-250}{340}[/tex]

The justification for the second step is subtraction property of equality because it undergoes subtraction and the collection of like terms and then subtracting them from one another as shown below:

y-250 = 250 + 340 x - 250

y= 250 + 340x - 250 + 250

Note that (-250 + 250) = 0

y = 250 + 340x.

Lastly, The fill up of the 6th step is substitution of the amount of money  saved and  then simplifying it.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we make a proportion 60/x = 40/100. When we cross multiply and divided to get x by itself we get $150 dollars. This is the original price of the dress. Now we take $150-$60 and we get $90. This is what Victoria paid for the dress after the 40% discount.

Each of the height will be calculated using Pythagoras theorem as follows;

half of b1 = 12/2 = 6half of b2 = 16/2 = 8

h1² = r² - (b1/2)²

h1² = 10² - 6²
