 In The Afternoon, The Person (who Is 1.8 M Tall) Casts A Shadow That Is 10 M. The Distance Along The

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The height of the tree is 6.12 meters and the height of the building is 33.12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the person is 1.8 meters tall, HC = 1.8

And since their shadow is 10 meters long, HD = 10.

We are also given that GH is 24 meters and that FG is 150 meters.

Height of the Tree:

The height of the tree is given by GB.

Again, since m∠BGD = m∠CHD = 90°, ∠BGD ≅ ∠CHD.

Likewise, ∠D ≅ ∠D. So, by AA-Similarity:

[tex]\displaystyle \Delta BGD\sim \Delta CHD[/tex]

Corresponding parts of similar triangles are in proportion. Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{GB}{GD}=\frac{HC}{HD}[/tex]

Note that:

[tex]GD=GH+HD[/tex]

Find GD:

[tex]GD=(24)+(10)=34[/tex]

Substitute the known values into the proportion:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{GB}{34}=\frac{1.8}{10}[/tex]

Cross-multiply:

[tex]10GB=61.2[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]GB=6.12\text{ meters}[/tex]

The height of the tree is 6.12 meters.

Height of the Building:

The height of the building is given by FA.

Since m∠AFD = m∠CHD = 90°, ∠AFD ≅ ∠CHD.

∠D ≅ ∠D. So, by AA-Similarity:

[tex]\Delta AFD\sim \Delta CHD[/tex]

Corresponding parts of similar triangles are in proportion. Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{FA}{FD}=\frac{HC}{HD}[/tex]

Note that:

[tex]FD=FG+GH+HD[/tex]

Find FD:

[tex]FD=(150)+(24)+(10)=184[/tex]

Substitute the known values into the proportion:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{FA}{184}=\frac{1.8}{10}[/tex]

Cross-multiply:

[tex]10FA=331.2[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]FA=33.12\text{ meters}[/tex]

The height of the building is 33.12 meters.

(6x+15)°
63° triangle

Answers

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in the triangle = 180°

Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

6x + 15 + 90 + 63 = 180

6x + 168 = 180 ( subtract 168 from both sides )

6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 2

A steamer travels 36 km upstream and 32 km downstream in 6.5 hours. The same steamer travels 4 km upstream and 40 km downstream in 180 minutes. Determine the steamer's speed in still water and the stream's speed.

Answers

Answer:

The streamer's speed in still water is 90.23 km/h while the stream's speed is 33.33 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v = streamer's speed in still water and v' = stream's speed. His speed upstream is V = v + v' and his speed downstream is V' = v - v'.

Since he travels 36 km upstream, the time taken is t = 36/V = 36/(v + v').

he travels 32 km downstream, the time taken is t' = 32/V' = 32/(v - v')

The total time is thus t + t' = 36/(v + v') + 32/(v - v')

Since the whole trip takes 6,5 hours,

36/(v + v') + 32/(v - v') = 6.5  (1)

Multiplying each term by (v + v')(v - v'), we have

(v + v')(v - v')36/(v + v') + (v + v')(v - v')32/(v - v') = 6.5(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

(v - v')36 + (v + v')32 = 6.5(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

36v - 36v' + 32v + 32v' = 6.5(v² + v'²)

68v - 4v' = 6.5(v² + v'²)        (2)

Also he travels 4 km upstream, the time taken is t" = 4/V = 4/(v + v').

he travels 40 km downstream, the time taken is t'" = 40/V' = 40/(v - v')

The total time is thus t" + t'" = 4/(v + v') + 40/(v - v')

Since the whole trip takes 180 minutes = 3 hours,

4/(v + v') + 40/(v - v') = 3  (3)

Multiplying each term by (v + v')(v - v'), we have

(v + v')(v - v')4/(v + v') + (v + v')(v - v')40/(v - v') = 3(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

(v - v')4 + (v + v')40 = 3(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

4v - 4v' + 40v + 40v' = 3(v² + v'²)

44v - 36v' = 3(v² + v'²)      (4)

Dividing (2) by (4), we have

(68v - 4v')/(44v - 36v') = 6.5(v² + v'²)/3(v² + v'²)      

(68v - 4v')/(44v - 36v') = 6.5/3

3(68v - 4v') = 6.5(44v - 36v')

204v - 12v' = 286v - 234v'

204v - 286v = 12v' - 234v'

-82v = -222v'

v = -222v'/82

v = 111v'/41

Substituting v into (2), we have

68v - 4v' = 6.5(v² + v'²)      

68(111v'/41) - 4v' = 6.5[(111v'/41)² + v'²]        

[68(111/41) - 4]v' = 6.5[(111/41)² + 1]v'²    

[68(111/41) - 4]v' = 6.5[(111/41)² + 1]v'²

[7548/41 - 4]v' = 6.5[12321/1681 + 1]v'²

[(7548 - 164)/41]v' = 6.5[(12321 + 1681)/1681]v'²

[7384/41]v' = 6.5[14002/1681]v'²

[7384/41]v' = [91013/1681]v'²

[91013/1681]v'² - [7384/41]v' = 0

([91013/1681]v' - [7384/41])v' = 0

⇒ v' = 0 or ([91013/1681]v' - 7384/41) = 0

⇒ v' = 0 or [91013/1681]v' - 7384/41) = 0

⇒ v' = 0 or v' =  7384/41 × 16841/91013

⇒ v' = 0 or v' =  180.097 × 0.185

⇒ v' = 0 or v' =  33.33 km/h

Since v' ≠ 0, v' = 33.33 km/h

Substituting v' into v = 111v'/41 = 111(33.33 km/h)/41 = 3699.63 km/h ÷ 41 = 90.23 km/h

So, the streamer's speed in still water is 90.23 km/h while the stream's speed is 33.33 km/h

Which value of “x” would satisfy the following equation 24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96?

Answers

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

add or subtract like terms

16x - 48 = 96

shift - 48 to right hand side . when it goes to other side minus changes to plus

16x = 96 + 48

16x = 144

x = 144/16

x = 9

to prove that the value of x satisfy the given equation or not.

to prove that the value of x is 9 substitute 9 inplace of x and if it gives 96 then it satisfy

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

24*9 - 18 - 8*9 - 30 = 96

216 - 18 - 72 - 30 = 96

216 - 120 = 96

96 = 96

since both sides is equal to 96 it can be concluded that the value of x is 9.

Problem

Which value of “x” would satisfy the following equation 24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96?

AnswerX = 9

Step by Step Explanation

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

First let's just add/subract the following terms.

16x - 48 = 96

Second.. shift the 48 to the right side. after that change the minus sign into plus sign.

16x = 48 + 96

16x = 44

x = 144/16

x = 9

Explanation:

So we just prove that the value of x satisfy the equation true or not.

To prove that the value of x is 9.. we just substitute the 9 in place of x and if it was 96 the result of the equation the problem must be true.

So we begin to solve it!

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

24*9 - 18 - 8*9 - 30 = 96

216 - 18 - 72 - 30 = 96

216 - 120 = 96

Since that all both sides are equal to 96 it can be concluded that the value of x is 9.

Danielle has test scores of 92, 86, 83, 90 and 91 in her math class. What score does she need on the next test to have an overall class average of 90%?

Answers

Answer:

98

Step-by-step explanation:

An average score can be calculated by finding the sum of all scores and then dividing by the number of tests. So we can create an equation like this:

[tex]\frac{(92+86+83+90+91+x)}{6}=90[/tex]

The numerator is the sum of her scores, where x represents the score of her next test (which is what we're trying to find).

The denominator is the total number of tests, which is 6 - this includes the 5 she has taken already and the next test that she hasn't taken yet.

Furthermore, we know all of this has to equal 90 because that's the average we're looking for.

Now we just solve for x.

Step 1) Multiply by 6:

[tex]92+86+83+90+91+x=90 \times 6[/tex]

Step 2) Simplify equation:

[tex]442+x=540[/tex]

Step 3) Subtract 442:

[tex]x=540-442=98[/tex]

Therefore, x = 98, so Danielle must achieve a score of 98 to have an overall class average of 90.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the range you need to subtract maximum card number from the minimum card number. We know that the range is 5 and that the minimum card is 6 so we can set up the equation like this to find the maximum shown as x.

[tex]5=x-6[/tex]

Add 6 to both sides

[tex]11=x[/tex]

Now we know all the the numbers of the three cards Anthony has since we were given the minimum = 6, 7, and solved for the last card which was the maximum = 11. In order to find the mean we have to add all of the numbers then divide by how many numbers there are (in this case it will be 3):
