Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

DC = 1332.95 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Let the measure of DC = h ft

And measure of side BC = a ft

By applying tangent ratio in ΔBCD,

tan(56°) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}[/tex]

             = [tex]\frac{DC}{BC}[/tex]

             = [tex]\frac{h}{a}[/tex]

h = a[tan(56°)] --------(1)

By applying tangent rule in ΔACD,

tan(22°) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}[/tex]

tan(22°) = [tex]\frac{DC}{BC+AC}[/tex]

             = [tex]\frac{h}{a+2400}[/tex]

h = (a + 2400)tan(22°) ------- (2)

Equating the values of h from equations (1) and (2),

a[tan(56°)] = (a + 2400)tan(22°)

a[tan(56°) - tan(22°)] = 2400[tan(22°)]

1.0785a = 968.6629

a = 899.085 ft

From equation (1),

h = 899.085[tan(56°)]

h = 1332.948

h ≈  1332.95 ft

Use complete sentences to describe the domain of the consine function.

Answers

can you provide a picture ?? or some sort of context

Answer:

The domain of a function is the set of the possible input values of the function. For example: consider the function f(x) = cos x, the domain of the function is the set of possible values of x.

The cosine function takes x values from all real numbers.

Therefore, the domain of the cosine function is a real numbers.

Solve the following system of equations using Desmos.....x-3y=-2 and x+3y=16

Answers

Answer:

(7, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x - 3y = - 2 → (1)

x + 3y = 16 → (2)

Adding (1) and (2) term by term will eliminate the y- term

2x + 0 = 14

2x = 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 7

Substitute x = 7 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

7 + 3y = 16 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

3y = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 3

solution is (7, 3 )

find the shaded region of the figure below​

Answers

Answer:

-x³ + 3x² - 14x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of outer rectangle = (x² + 3x - 4) * (2x - 3)

      = (x² + 3x - 4) * 2x  + (x² + 3x - 4) * (-3)

     =x²*2x + 3x *2x - 4*2x  + x² *(-3) + 3x *(-3)  - 4*(-3)

     =2x³ + 6x² - 8x - 3x² - 9x + 12

    = 2x³ + 6x² - 3x²   - 8x - 9x + 12     {Combine like terms}

    = 2x³ + 3x² - 17x + 12

Area of inner rectangle = (x² - 1)* 3x

                                       = x² *3x - 1*3x

                                       = 3x³ - 3x

Area of shaded region = area of outer rectangle - area of inner rectangle

         = 2x³ + 3x² - 17x + 12 - (3x³ - 3x)

         = 2x³ + 3x² - 17x + 12 -3x³ + 3x

        = 2x³ - 3x³ + 3x² - 17x + 3x + 12

        = -x³ + 3x² - 14x + 12

The change in water level of a lake is modeled by a polynomial function, W(x). Describe how to find the x-intercepts of W(x) and how to construct a rough graph of W(x) so that the Parks Department can predict when there will be no change in the water level. You may create a sample polynomial of degree 3 or higher to use in your explanations.
(Dividing and Solving Polynomials)

Answers

First. Finding the x-intercepts of  

Let  be the change in water level. So to find the x-intercepts of this function we can use The Rational Zero Test that states:

To find the zeros of the polynomial:

We use the Trial-and-Error Method which states that a factor of the constant term:

can be a zero of a polynomial (the x-intercepts).

So let's use an example: Suppose you have the following polynomial:

where the constant term is . The possible zeros are the factors of this term, that is:

.

Thus:

From the foregoing, we can affirm that  are zeros of the polynomial.

Second. Construction a rough graph of  

Given that this is a polynomial, then the function is continuous. To graph it we set the roots on the coordinate system. We take the interval:

and compute  where  is a real number between -2 and -1. If , the curve start rising, if not, the curve start falling. For instance:

Therefore the curve start falling and it goes up and down until  and from this point it rises without a bound as shown in the figure below

There are some hens and some sheeps are in a farm,total number of animals are 10 and total number of their legs are 32 1.Find number of hens? 2. Find number of sheeps?

Answers

Answer: The number of hens are 4 and number of sheeps are 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total animals = 10

Total number of legs = 32

Let number of hens = h  and number of sheep = s

Thus h+s = 10    (1)

Now each hen has two legs and each sheep has 4 legs :[tex]2\times h+4\times s=32[/tex]   (2)

Solving for h and s we get:

s = 6 , h =4

Thus number of hens are 4 and number of sheeps are 6

Mrs. Smith washed 2 5 of her laundry. Her son washed 1 3 of it. Who washed most of the laundry? How much of the laundry still needs to be washed?

Answers

Answer:

a) The person who washed the most of the laundry is Mrs Smith

b) 4/15 of the laundry is left to wash

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Smith washed 2/5 of her laundry. Her son washed 1/3 of it.

a) Who washed most of the laundry?

We convert the fraction of laundry each person washed to decimal

Mrs Smith = 2/5 = 0.4

Her son = 1/3 = 0.333

Therefore, the person who washed the most of the laundry is Mrs Smith

b) How much of the laundry still needs to be washed?

Let us total laundry = 1

=1 - ( 2/5 + 1/3)

Lowest Common Denominator is 15

=1- (3 × 2 + 5 × 1/15)

= 1 - (6 +5/15)

=1 - 11/15

= 4/15

Suppose you waited 10 years to invest in the same retirement fund and have the same $400,000 for retirement at the same 8% interest. What amount will you have to deposit each month to match the value of your annuity?

Answers

Answer:

$7,196.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the compound interest formula to fins the amount after 10years;

A  = P(1+r)^n

Principal P = $400,000

Rate r = 8% = 0.08

Time t = 10 years

Substitute

A = 400,000(1+0.08)^10

A = 400,000(1.08)^10

A = 400,000(2.1589)

A = 863,569.99

A ≈ 863,570

Hence the amount after 10 years is $863,570

Monthly deposit = $863,570/120 (10 years is equivalent to 120months)

Monthly deposit = 7,196.42

Therefore he will have to deposit $7,196.42 into his account monthly

A booster club sells raffle tickets • Before tickets go on sale to the public, 120 tickets are sold to student athletes. • After tickets go on sale to the public, the tickets sell at a constant rate for a total of 8 hours spread over I days. • At the end of this time, all tickets have been sold. If represents the hours since tickets go on sale to the public and represents the number of raffle tickets sold, which graph best represents the scenario?​

Answers

Answer:

The top graph.

Step by step:

Before the tickets go on sale, 120 tickets were already sold.

After that, the tickets sell at a constant rate for a total of 8 hours.

At the end of this time, all the tickets were sold (we have 0 tickets left)

If x (horizontal axis) represents the hours since tickets go on sale, and y (vertical axis) represents the number of raffle tickets sold.

Then, at x = 0, we should already see y = 120

Because we start with 120 tickets sold.

Then, as x increases, the number of tickets sold also should increase, until we get x = 8 hours, where y stops increasing because all tickets are already sold.

Then we should have an increasing line that stops increasing at x = 8 hours.

Then the correct option is the above graph, where we have:

An increasing line.

y = 120 in the vertical axis (y = 120 when x = 0)

Answers

Answer: I believe the answer is 216 Square units.

Explanation:
1. Cut the shape in half. Now you have a square and a triangular shape.

2. The square is 12 inches on all four sides. 12 • 12 = 144. 144 is the area for the square.

3. Now, the triangular shape. The bottom of the shape is 12 because we divided the total 24 in half with the square. The left side (the longer side) of the shape is also 12 because it is parallel to the square with 12 as the same measurement. The right side (the shorter side) of the shape is 6 because it's half the size of the square’s length. The length of the top of the shape is also 12 because it is half of the square’s width of 24.

4. Now that we have found the measurements of the triangular shape, we can multiply (length • width) and add. The square is 144 units (12•12=144) and the triangular shape is 72 (12•6=72). 144 + 72= 216.

Answers

Answer:

1 block is required in the process to balance the scale

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the process that will balance the scale, we need to solve the given expression for x as shown;

3x + 1 = x+ 3

Subtract x from both sides

3x+1-x = x+3 - x

3x - x + 1 = 3

2x + 1 = 3

Subtract 1 from both sides

2x + 1 - 1 = 3 -1

2x = 2

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 2/2

x = 1

Hence 1 block is required in the process to balance the scale
