Sandra spotted the sailboat from the shore and measured the angle from the waterline to the top of the boats mast to be 7° if the top of the mask is 23 feet above the water how far is the middle of the sailboat from the shore? Estimate your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The middle of the sailboat is approximately 268.8 feet from the shore.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance from shore to the middle of the boat be represented by x, the angle of elevation of Sandra from the shore to the top of the boat mast  is 7°. Applying the required trigonometric function to this question, we have;

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Tan 7° = [tex]\frac{23}{x}[/tex]

⇒  x = [tex]\frac{23}{Tan 7^{0} }[/tex]

       = [tex]\frac{23}{0.12279}[/tex]

      = 268.7515

∴ x = 268.8 feet

The middle of the sailboat is approximately 268.8 feet from the shore.

Which equation represents a population of 300 animals that decreases at an annual rate of 23%? A. p=300(1.23)t B. p=300(1.77)t C. p=300(0.77)t D. p=300(0.23)t

Answers

For a given initial quantity A, a decrease of x% can be written as:

A - A*(x%/100%) = A*(1 - x%/100%)

With this, we need to construct an exponential decrease equation for the given situation, and we will find that the equation is:

P(t) = 300*(0.77)^t

Now let's see how we found that.

In this case, we know that:

The initial number of animals is 300.

They decrease at an anual rate of 23%.

This means that after the first year, the population will be:

P(1) = 300 - 300*(23%/100$) = 300*( 1 - 0.23) = 300*(0.77)

After another year, the population decreases again, so we get:

P(2) = 300*(0.77) - 300*(0.77)*(23%/100$) = 300*(0.77)^2

Here we already can see the pattern, the population in the year t, we will get:

P(t) = 300*(0.77)^t

Then we can see that the correct option is C.

At an elite baseball camp, 60% of players can bat both right-handed and left-handed. If 25% of the players who bat left-handed do not bat right-handed, what is the probability that a player selected at random does not bat left-handed?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a player selected at random does not bat left-handed is 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that there are a total of 100 baseball players at an elite baseball camp.

The information provided is:

60% of players can bat both right-handed and left-handed. 25% of the players who bat left-handed do not bat right-handed.

That is, the number of players can bat both right-handed and left-handed is,

n (L and R) = 60.

Now, if 25% of the players who bat left-handed do not bat right-handed, then 75% of all left-handed players can also bat right-handed.

⇒ n (L and R) = n (L) × 75%

            60     = n (L) × 0.75

           n (L)    =  60/0.75

           n (L)    = 80

So there are 80 left handed batters.

Compute the number of only left handed batters as follows:

n (Only L) = n (L) × 25%

                = 80 × 0.25

                = 20

So there are 20 only left handed batters.

Compute the number of only right handed batters as follows:

Total = n (Only L) + n (Only R) + n (L and R)

 100 = 20 + n (Only R) + 60

n (Only R) = 20

Thus, the probability that a player selected at random does not bat left-handed is 20%.

The diagonal of a square is 8 cm. What is the length of the side of this square? Give your answer as an exact surd in its simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal divides the square into 2 right angles with legs s and the diagonal as the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle , then

s² + s² = 8²

2s² = 64 ( divide both sides by 2 )

s² = 32 ( take the square root of both sides )

s = [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex] = 4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Answer:

Given :

↠ The diagonal of a square is 8 cm.

To Find :

↠ The length of the side of square.

Create a table of points from the equation f (x)= 3x^2 -8x + 2

Answers

Answer:

The second table

Step-by-step explanation:

To create table of points using the function, [tex] f(x) = 3x^2 - 8x + 2 [/tex], substitute the value of x in each case.

Thus,

For x = -1,

[tex] f(-1) = 3(-1)^2 - 8(-1) + 2 = 3(1) + 8 + 2 = 3 + 8 + 2 [/tex]

[tex] f(-1) = 13 [/tex]

For x = 0

[tex] f(0) = 3(0)^2 - 8(0) + 2 = 3(0) - 0 + 2 = 0 - 0 + 2 [/tex]

[tex] f(0) = 2 [/tex]

For x = 1,

[tex] f(1) = 3(1)^2 - 8(1) + 2 = 3(1) - 8 + 2 = 3 - 8 + 2 [/tex]

[tex] f(1) = -3 [/tex]

For x = 2,

[tex] f(2) = 3(2)^2 - 8(2) + 2 = 3(4) - 16 + 2 = 12 - 16 + 2 [/tex]

[tex] f(2) = -2 [/tex]

For x = 3,

[tex] f(3) = 3(3)^2 - 8(3) + 2 = 3(9) - 24 + 2 = 27 - 24 + 2 [/tex]

[tex] f(3) = 5 [/tex]

7. The annual interest rate is 20%. The balance after the grace period was $15,000. A payment of $2,500 was made on the 3rd day. What is the interest for the month?

Answers

Answer:

Interest (I) = $18

Step-by-step explanation:

$15,000 by the end of grace period

$2,500 payment was made by the 3rd day

$15,000/$2500=6

6×3=18

I = PRT/100

I = (15,000 × 20% × 18 days)/100

I = {15,000 × 0.2 × (18/30)}/ 100

I= {15,000 × 0.2 × 0.6}/ 100}

I= {1800}/ 100}

I= {18}/ 1}

a car traveling at 87 km/h and a bus leave a toll booth at the same time. twenty minutes later the bus is 3 km farther from the toll booth than the car. what is the average speed of the bus

Answers

Answer:

96 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of car = 87 km/h

Time = 20 minutes = [tex]\frac{20}{60} = \frac{1}{3}\ hrs[/tex]

Distance traveled by bus = 3 km more than that of traveled by car

To find

Formula for distance traveled is given as:

[tex]Distance = Speed \times Time[/tex]

So, distance traveled by car in 20 minutes = 87 [tex]\times \frac{1}3[/tex] = 29 km

As per given statement, distance traveled by bus = 29 + 3 = 32 km

Time taken = [tex]\frac{1}{3}\ hrs[/tex]

Using the formula:

[tex]Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

Speed of the bus =

Answer:

The direction's constant of proportionality is 4. k = 2/0.5 There are 4 gallons of water per one scoop. The student is incorrect because 4 pitchers does not equal 4 scoops times 2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Direction :

1/2 of a scoop + 2 gallons = 1 pitcher

Mrs. Galindo's students:

4 pitcher = 4 scoops + 2 gallons of water

Correct mixture for 4 pitchers:

1/2 scoop + 2 gallons of water =1 pitcher

For 4 pichers, multiply both sides by 4

1/2(4) scoops + 2(4) gallons of water =4 pitchers

4/2 scoops + 8 gallons of water =4 pitchers

2 scoops + 8 gallons of water =4 pitchers

The direction's constant of proportionality is 4. k = 2/0.5 There are 4 gallons of water per one scoop. The student is incorrect because 4 pitchers does not equal 4 scoops times 2 gallons

There is no sales tax on the purchase.
What is the amount, in dollars and cents, the store pays in fees for a $60.00 purchase by a customer using a credit
card?**

Answers

Answer:

So the amount to pay is $1 and 20 cents ( or a total of 120 cents)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the amount paid as fees for a $60 purchase given that the store has to pay a flat fee of $0.15 and a processing fee of 1.75% of the amount of purchase.

Firstly, we establish that there are two fees to be paid.

We already have a fee of $0.15

The other fee to pay is 1.75% of $60

Mathematically that would be;

1.75/100 * 60 = $1.05

Thus, the fees to be paid on the $60 purchase is $1.05 + $0.15 = $1.20

Two angles are complementary. One angle's measure is 3 more than 9
times the other angle. What is the measure of each angle? Write each
angle's measure separately. ​

Answers

Answer:

The measure of one angle is 81.3° and the other angle is 8.7°.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that two angles are complementary. One angle's measure is 3 more than 9  times the other angle.

Let the measure of one angle be 'x' and the measure of other angle be 'y'.

So, according to the question;

The first condition states that two angles are complementary, this means that the sum of both angles must be equal to 90°, i.e;

                                 x + y = 90°

                                 x = 90° - y  ---------------- [equation 1]

The second condition states that One angle's measure is 3 more than 9  times the other angle, i.e;

                             x = 3 + 9y ------------ [equation 2]

Now, both the equations we get;

90 - y = 3 + 9y

9y + y = 90 - 3

10y = 87

[tex]y=\frac{87}{10}[/tex] = 8.7°

Now, putting the value of y in equation 1 we get;

                x = 90° - y

                x = 90° - 8.7° = 81.3°

Hence, the measure of one angle is 81.3° and the other angle is 8.7°.

On her third trip to the nursery she spent two times much as what she spent on her first trip to the nursery. How much did she spend on her first trip to the nursery? Create a linear equation to model a real-world situation and solve the equation to find the solution


Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $ x = the amount spent on the first day

The amount spent on the second day = x + 15.50

The amount spent on the third say = 2*x = 2x

Total amount Essie spent on 3 days = $65.50

x + (x +15.50) + 2x = 65.50

x + x + 15.50 + 2x = 65.50

Add like terms

4x + 15.50 = 65.50

Subtract 15.50 from both sides

4x = 65.50 - 15.50

4x = 50

Divide both sides by 4

x = 50/4

x = $ 12.50

The amount spent on the first day = $ 12.50

The amount spent on the second day = 12.50 + 15.50 = $ 28

The amount spent on the third day= 12.50 * 2 = $ 25
