Answer:

11.5 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

For future reference trianglecalculator.net is very helpful

The angle of elevation to the nearest tenth of a degree is 11.54°.

An angle of elevation is defined as the angle between the slant horizontal line of an eye and the object in relation to the baseline called the adjacent.

In trigonometry, the angle of elevation can be determined by using the sine rule.

Answer:

x= -34/3

Step-by-step explanation:

just solve by multiplying both sides by 15, then distribute 10 and 3 through the parenthesis, multiply both sides by 2, move the variable to the left side and change the sign, move the constant and change the sign, combine like terms, calculate the sum, and finally divide both sides by -3

Answer:

y = 3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Coordinates

(-3 , -5)

Slope m = 3

Find;

Equation of slope

Computation:

Given, x1 = -3 and y1 = -5

Equation of slope = y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Equation of slope = y - (-5) = 3(x + 3)

Equation of slope = y + 5 = 3x + 9

Equation of slope = y = 3x + 9 - 5

Equation of slope = y = 3x + 4

y = 3x + 4

Answer: B)  [tex]0 \le y \le 100[/tex]

====================================================

Explanation:

The range is the set of possible y outputs. Visually, we look for the highest and lowest points to determine that range of y values. The lowest point occurs when y = 0, which is the left-most point of the graph. The highest point is when y = 100 where the peak is.

So we say that y is between 0 and 100, including both endpoints to lead to the inequality [tex]0 \le y \le 100[/tex]

The range in interval notation is [0, 100]. The square brackets say to include the endpoints.

------------

Side note: The domain appears to be [tex]2.5 \le x \le 9.5[/tex] since the left-most point seems to have the x coordinate x = 2.5 and the right-most point seems to have the x coordinate x = 9.5. The domain is the set of all possible x inputs. So if your teacher was asking about the domain, then the answer would be C.

Answer:

w = 16, x = 11, y = 6, z = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is the ratio of corresponding sides, image to original.

scale factor = [tex]\frac{6}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Then by proportion

[tex]\frac{12}{w}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

3w = 48 ( divide both sides by 3 )

w = 16

----------------

[tex]\frac{x}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

4x = 36

x = 9

-------------------

[tex]\frac{4.5}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

3y = 18

y = 6

Answer:

m<S = 38°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<R = (x + 17)°

m<S = (2x - 2)°

m<T = (5x + 5)°

Required:

m<S

Solution:

First, we will need to determine the value of x by creating an equation. Thus:

m<R + m<S + m<T = 180° (sum of triangle)

Plug in the values

(x + 17)° + (2x - 2)° + (5x + 5)° = 180°

x + 17 + 2x - 2 + 5x + 5 = 180

Add like terms

8x + 20 = 180

8x + 20 - 20 = 180 - 20

8x = 160

8x/8 = 160/8

x = 20

Find m<S:

m<S = 2x - 2

Plug in the value of x

m<S = 2(20) - 2 = 40 - 2

m<S = 38°

When the discriminant is negative, there is no real number solutions.

Answer:

x = 15 and y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2y + 1

x + y - 8 = 14

Let's substitute the value of x in the second equation:

(2y + 1) + y - 8 = 14

3y -7 = 14

3y = 14 + 7

3y = 21

y = 21/3

y = 7

And now you substitute the value of y in the first equation:

x = 2•7 + 1

x = 14 + 1

x = 15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

two semicircles each of diameter 8 inches makes one circle with diameter=8 in.

radius r=8/2=4 in.

area of shaded region= πr^2=π×4²=16 π in²

≈16×3.14

≈50.24

≈50.2 in²

Answer:

radius of circle = 3cm

circumference = 18.84cm

diameter = 6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

if the diameter of circle is 6cm

radius of circle = diameter/2

                         = 6/2

                         = 3

circumference of circle = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r

                                       = 2 x 3.14 x 3

                                       = 6.28 x 3

F ind:

Experimental probability [popping a polka dot balloon]

Computation:

Experimental probability [popping a polka dot balloon] = Number of polka dot balloons / Total number of balloons

Experimental probability [popping a polka dot balloon] = 5 / [17 + 18 + 5]

Experimental probability [popping a polka dot balloon] = 5 / 40

The volume of solid B cylinder is 9000π cubic units.

A cylinder is a 3-D solid figure that has two identical circular bases joined by a curved surface at a fixed distance from the center, that is the height of the cylinder.

For the given situation,

Cylinder A:

Let the radius of cylinder A be r1 = 12 inches

Let the height of cylinder A be h1

The volume of the cylinder A, V1 = 4608 π cubic inches

Cylinder B:

Let the radius of cylinder A be r2 = 15 inches

Let the height of cylinder A be h2

The volume of the cylinder A, V2

The formula of volume of cylinder is

[tex]V=\pi r^{2}h[/tex]

For cylinder A,

⇒ [tex]4608\pi =\pi (12)^{2}h1[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h1=\frac{4608}{144}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h1=32[/tex]

Cylinder A and cylinder B are similar, so

[tex]\frac{h1}{h2} =\frac{r1}{r2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{32}{h2} =\frac{12}{15}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h2=\frac{(32)(15)}{12}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h2=40[/tex]

Volume of cylinder B is

⇒ [tex]V=\pi (15)^{2}(40)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]V=9000\pi[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the volume of solid B cylinder is 9000π cubic units.
