Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu. A vertical pole is supported by two ropes staked to the ground on opposite sides of the pole. One rope is 8 meters long, and the other is 7 meters. The distance between the stakes is 6 meters, and the height of the pole is meters.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6.78 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the set up forms a triangle with length of ropes two sides of the triangle a = 8 m and b = 7 m respectively, the distance between them which is c = 6 m forms the third side of the triangle.

To find the height of the pole, we need to find the angle between any of the ropes and the ground. So, choosing the 8 m long rope side and using the cosine rule,

b² = a² + c² - 2accosФ where Ф is the angle opposite the 7 m long side which is also the angle between the 8 m long side and the ground.

So, making, Ф subject of the formula, we have

b² - (a² + c²) = 2accosФ

cosФ = [b² - (a² + c²)]/2ac

Ф = cos⁻¹{[b² - (a² + c²)]/2ac}

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

Ф = cos⁻¹{[b² - (a² + c²)]/2ac}

Ф = cos⁻¹{[7² - (8² + 6²)]/2(8)(6)}

Ф = cos⁻¹{[49 - (64 + 36)]/96}

Ф = cos⁻¹{[49 - 100]/96}

Ф = cos⁻¹{-51/96}

Ф = cos⁻¹{-0.53125}

Ф = 122.09°

Since the height of the pole, h is a perpendicular bisector to the base of the triangle, and the 8 m long side form a triangle with it and the ground and the 8 m long side being the hypotenuse side of this triangle, we have that

sinФ = h/a where a = 8 m and Ф = 122.09° = the angle between the 8 m long side and the ground.

h = asinФ

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

h = asinФ

h = (8 m)sin122.09°

h = 8 m × 0.8472

h = 6.78 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of A is ...

This matches Monday and Thursday.

The volume of D is ...

Set up an en equation and use it to solve for x

Answers

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , then

x - 3 + 153 = 180

x + 150 = 180 ( subtract 150 from both sides )

x = 30

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

180° = total

153° = part

180° - 153° = 27°

Then use the equation to find the value of x

(x - 3) = 27

(x + 3) = +3       Add 3 to both sides!

x = 30

What is the image point of (0,1) after the transformation D4 R90?
Please and thank you

Answers

Answer:

Image point → (-4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinate of a point → (0, 1)

Rule for the transformation has been given as,

D₄ o R₉₀

First use R₉₀ → Rotation of the point by 90° counterclockwise

Rule for the rotation of a point (x, y) by 90° counterclockwise about the origin,

(x, y) → (-y, x)

(0, 1) → (-1, 0)

Further use D₄ → Dilation of the point by a scale factor of 4 about the origin

If a point (x, y) is dilated by a scale factor 'k' about the origin rule for the dilation is,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

By applying this rule,

(-1, 0) → (-4, 0)

Therefore, image point will be → (-4, 0)

III. Has no restriction on its composition.
b. Whatis the probability that a random choice of numbers from the group will result in 3 boys and 1 girl.​

Answers

Answer:

Because you are recounting people several times. Say for example, let us number those people

{1,2,3,4} for the four girls and {1,2…7} for the boys.

One possible combination by your way is to fix one boy and girl each, say

{1,1} and then choose the remaining people. Let this combination be, for the sake of the example, {1,1,2,2,3}. This is a valid combination.

Now, when you fix another combination of a boy and a girl, say {1,2}, you could get the same combination as before because one the combinations while choosing the three remaining people would be {1,2,3}.

A correct way would be to choose  girls and then choose 5− boys for 1≤≤4

So we get ∑4=1(4)(75−)=441

Answer:

We need group of 4 out of group of 5 + 6 = 11 people.

Part A

i)

2 boys and 2 girls:

5C2 * 6C2 = (5*4/2) * (6*5/2) = 150 ways

ii)

4 boys or 4 girls:

5C4 + 6C4 = 5 + 15 = 20 ways

iii)

No restrictions:

11C4 = (11*10*9*8)/(4*3*2) = 330 ways

Part B

Combination of 3 boys and 1 girl:

5C3*6C1 = (5*4/2)*6 = 60

Total number of ways is 330 (found above)

Required probability:

P(3 boys and 1 girl) = 60/330 ≈ 0.1818 = 18.18%

By simplifying the given expression, the expression [tex]\sqrt[3]{3}[/tex] * [tex]\sqrt[5]{3^6}[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]3^(23/15).[/tex]

How to find equivalent value

To simplify the given expression,  combine the two radicals using the property of exponentiation.

First, simplify the expression inside the second radical:

√[5]{[tex]3^6[/tex]}

Since the index is 5,  rewrite the expression as:

[tex](3^6)^(1/5)[/tex]

Using the property of exponentiation, multiply the exponents:

[tex]3^(6/5)[/tex]

Now combine this result with the first radical:

[tex]3\sqrt3 * 3^(6/5)[/tex]

Since ∛3 can be written as [tex]3^(1/3)[/tex],  rewrite the expression as:

[tex]3^(1/3) * 3^(6/5)[/tex]

To multiply two numbers with the same base, add the exponents:

[tex]3^(1/3 + 6/5)[/tex]

To simplify further, we need a common denominator for the fractions:

[tex]3^(5/15 + 18/15)[/tex]

Combining the fractions:

[tex]3^(23/15)[/tex]

Therefore, the given expression is equivalent to [tex]3^(23/15).[/tex]

Transformation involves changing the form of a function.

The equation that represents g(x) is (c) [tex]g(x) =-\sqrt[3]{x+1}[/tex]

Function f(x) is given as:

[tex]f(x) =\sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]

First f(x) is reflected across the x-axis.

The rule of this transformation (i.e. reflection) is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x,-y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f'(x) = -f(x)[/tex]

This gives

[tex]f'(x) =-\sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]

Next, f'(x) is translated 1 unit left

The rule of this transformation (i.e. translation) is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x+1,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]g(x) = f'(x+1)[/tex]

This gives

[tex]g(x) =-\sqrt[3]{x+1}[/tex]

Hence, the equation that represents g(x) is (c)

y = 4x + 5 ; y = x - 4

Answers

Answer:

(- 3, - 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 4x + 5 → (1)

y = x - 4 → (2)

Substitute y = 4x + 5 into (2)

4x + 5 = x - 4 ( subtract x from both sides )

3x + 5 = - 4 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

3x = - 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 3

Substitute x = - 3 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (2)

y = x - 4 = - 3 - 4 = - 7

solution is (- 3, - 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles are positive when measured counterclockwise from the x-axis.

Terminal side of 240° degrees when measures counterclockwise will lie in the 3rd quadrant.

But the angle is -240°.

That means angle is being measured clockwise from the x-axis.

Therefore, terminal side of the of the angle will be in the 2nd quadrant.

Answers

Answer:

a) csc∅ = √53/2

b) cot ∅ = 15/√514

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The value of cot ∅ = -7/2

cos ∅ < 0

We note that cos(∅) is less than 0 in Quadrant II and III, and cot(∅) is less than 0 in the Quadrant II, therefore, we have;

∅ is in the Quadrant II

csc∅ = (√((-7)² + 2²))/2 =√53/2 ≈ 3.64

csc∅ = √53/2

b) cos∅ 15/17

∅ is in Quadrant IV

∴ cot ∅ = 15/(√(15² + 17²)) = 15/√514 ≈ 0.662

cot ∅ = 15/√514

So first to find out how many feet she descended in those 91 seconds, you need to multiply 91*-2.2= -200.2. Then, it says that she ascends for 32 seconds at the speed of 0.7 feet per second. It's the same thing, but ascend means to go up. So, we multiply 32*0.7=22.4. Now we add the two numbers together to get -177.8.
