When an airplane is 35,000 feet from an air traffic control tower, the angle of elevation between the tower and the airplane is.



What is the approximate altitude, a, of the plane at this point?
A. 45,689 feet
B. 26,812 feet
C. 29,369 feet
D. 41,711 feet

Answers

Answer:

26,812 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The drawing given is very helpful in this case.  When solving problems like this, it's important to realize what trigonometric ratio we're going to use.  From the given angle (50°), we are given the hypotenuse (35,000 ft) and we're trying to solve for the opposite side ([tex]a[/tex]).  

So since we're trying to find the opposite side side and we have the hypotenuse, we should try to find a trigonmetric ratio between the opposite side and the hypotenuse.  Using SOH-CAH-TOA, hopefully you can see that we should pick SOH (i.e. [tex]\sin(\theta)=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex]).  Therefore, we can set up our equation given the angle [tex]\theta=50^\circ[/tex].  

[tex]\sin(50^\circ)=\frac{a}{35000}[/tex]

Since we're solving for [tex]a[/tex], we can just rearrange to get [tex]a=35000\sin(50^\circ)=26812[/tex]

Therefore, the plane's altitude [tex]a[/tex] is 26,812 ft.

The approximation altitude of the plane at 35,000 feet from an air traffic control tower will be 26812 feet hence option (B) will be correct.

What is a trigonometric function?

the trigonometric functions are real functions for only an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.

The domain input value for the six basic trigonometric operations is the angle of a right triangle, and the result is a range of numbers.

The trigonometric function is only valid for the right angle triangle and it is 6 functions which are given as sin cos tan cosec sec cot.

Given that 35000 feet are the distance between a plane and the air traffic control tower.

Hypotaneous =  35000 feet

The angle of elevation is 50°

By trigonometric function sin

Sinx = perpendicular/hypotaneous

Sin50° = Altitude/35000

Altitute = 35000 × sin50°

Altitude = 26811.55 ≈ 26812 feet will be the correct answer.

(b) How many ways can you arrange 10 of the 17 books on the shelf if you insist they must be arranged alphabetically by author? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

19448 ways

70572902400 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

To arrange 17 books on a shelf from a possible we use the combination formula :

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

17C10 = 17! ÷ 7! 10!

17C10 = 19448 ways

To arrange the books in alphabetical order :

2)

In question, 2, the order of arrangement matters ; hence, we use permutation ;

nPr = n! ÷ (n-r)!

17P10 = 17! ÷ (17 - 10)! = 17! ÷ 7!

17P10 = 70572902400

Given the system of equations, what is the solution? 2x+y = -1 х- у = -5​

Answers

Answer:

x=-2, y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

make it easy first, solve for x in the second equation: x= -5+y.

then sub that in for the other x: 2(-5+y)+y= -1

now combine like terms: -10+3y= -1

solve for y: 3y=9, y= 3

then replace y for your second equation: x-3= -5

solve for x= -5+3.... so then its -2

check by replacing all variables with your new solutions:

2(-2), which is -4+3 does equal -1

(-2) -3 does equal -5.

your answers are x=-2, y=3

the domain of this is R/(4)

Option D is the correct answer.

What is a function?

A function has an input and an output.

A function can be one-to-one or onto one.

It simply indicated the relationships between the input and the output.

Example:

f(x) = 2x + 1

f(1) = 2 + 1 = 3

f(2) = 2 x 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

The outputs of the functions are 3 and 5

The inputs of the function are 1 and 2.

We have,

m(x) = (x + 5)/ (x - 1) and n(x) = x - 3,

Now,

(m o n)(x)

= m (n(x)

= m (x - 3)

= (x - 3 + 5) / (x - 3 - 1)

= (x + 2) / (x - 3)

We can not have x = 3.

So,

The domain can not have x = 3.

From the options,

h(x) = 11 / (x - 3) can not have x = 3.

Thus,

The function that has the same domain as (m o n)(x) is

h(x) = 11 / (x - 3)

Answers

Answer:

A. g(x) = -2x^5 - 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection over the x axis results in the function -x^5.

Vertical stretch of 2 gives -2x^5

Finally a shift down of 1 unit gives -2x^5 - 1

29. In the 2010-2011 NBA regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers won 7 more than twice as many games as they lost. The Lakers played 82 games. How many wins and losses did the team have? ​

Answers

Answer:

Loss 25 Games & Win 57 Games

Step-by-step explanation:

According to question,we have

The Los Angeles Lakers won 7 more than twice as many games as they lost.

Assume Total Loss=L & Thus Total Win = 2L + 7

Total Win + Total Loss = Total Games Played

2L + 7 + L = 82

3L = 82-7

3L = 75 ⇔ L = 25

Thus, Total Loss=25 Games & Thus Total Win = 57 Games

If a regular polygon has exterior angles that measure 36° each, how many sides does the polygon have? O A. 12 O B. 6 O c. 10 O D.8​

Answers

Answer:

A decagon with has 10 sides.

The polygon has 10 sides.

What are Polygons?

Polygons are closed figures which has at least three set of line segments joined together.

The polygon with least number of sides is triangle.

Regular polygons are polygons which are having all the sides and interior angles equal to each other.

Given that,

Each exterior angle of the polygon = 36°

Sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is always 360°.

So,

Each exterior angle of a regular polygon = 360° / Number of sides

Number of sides of the polygon = 360° / measure of each exterior angle

Substituting,

Number of sides = 360° / 36°

                            = 10

Hence there are 10 sides for the polygon.

A. 28
B. 30.1
C. 41.1
D. 30

Answers

Answer: 41.1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we need to use SOH-CAH-TOA. SOH-CAH-TOA is since, cosine, and tangent. The O, A, H stands for opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse respectively.

Looking at the figure, we see 47°. The labelled angles are adjacent and the hypotenuse. Therefore, we use CAH or cosine.

[tex]cos(47)=\frac{28}{x}[/tex]             [multiply both sides by x]

[tex]xcos(47)=28[/tex]           [divide both sides by cos(47)]

[tex]x=\frac{28}{cos(47)}[/tex]

When we plug that into a calculator, we get x=41.1.

Answer:

ans: 41.1

Step-by-step explanation:

in given figure 47° is reference angle so considering the given sides and reference angle use cosine

I.e

cos47° = 28/x

x = 28 / cos47°

x = 41.1

the cost price of an articles was 4000 find the marked price of the article so that there will be profit of 20%after allowing a discount of 20%​

Answers

Answer:

The marked price of the article was $ 6000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the cost price of an article was $ 4000, to find the marked price of the article so that there will be profit of 20% after allowing a discount of 20%, the following calculation must be performed:

4000 x X x 0.8 = 4000 x 1.2

4000 x X x 0.8 = 4800

4000 x X = 4800 / 0.8

4000 x X = 6000

X = 6000/4000

X = 1.5

4000 x 1.5 = 6000

Therefore, the marked price of the article was $ 6000.

Answer:

  (a)  none of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest exponent in the function shown is 2. That makes it a 2nd-degree function, also called a quadratic function. The graph of such a function is a parabola -- a U-shaped curve.

The coefficient of the highest-degree term is the "leading coefficient." In this case, that is the coefficient of the x² term, which is 1. When the leading coefficient of an even-degree function is positive, the U curve has its open end at the top of the graph. We say it "opens upward." (When the leading coefficient is negative, the curve opens downward.)

This means the bottom of the U is the minimum value the function has. For a quadratic in the form ax²+bx+c, the horizontal location of the minimum on the graph is at x=-b/(2a). This extreme point on the curve is called the "vertex."

This function has a=1, b=1, and c=3. The minimum of the function is where ...

  x = -b/(2·a) = -1/(2·1) = -1/2

This value is not listed among the answer choices, so the correct choice for this function is ...

  none of the above

__

The attached graph of the function confirms that the minimum is located at x=-1/2

Additional comment

When you're studying quadratic functions, there are few formulas that you might want to keep handy. The formula for the location of the vertex is one of them.

The height of a square pyramid with a that has 12 cm edges and a lateral area of 240cm sq.

Answers

Answer:

The height of the pyramid = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The edges of a pyramid, a = 12 cm

The lateral area of a pyramid, A = 240 cm²

The formula for the lateral area of a square pyramid is given by :

[tex]A=a\sqrt{a^2+4h^2}[/tex]

Where

h is the height

Squaring both sides,

[tex]A^2=a^2\times (a^2+4h^2)\\\\\dfrac{A^2}{a^2}=a^2+4h^2\\\\\dfrac{A^2}{a^2}-a^2=4h^2\\\\4h^2=\dfrac{(240)^2}{12^2}-12^2\\\\4h^2=256\\\\h^2=64\\\\h = 8\ cm[/tex]

So, the height of the pyramid is equal to 8 cm.
