The angle of elevation of the top of a pole as seen from a point 13 ft away from the base is double its angle of elevation as seen from a point 47 ft farther from the pole. Find the height of the pole above the level of the observer's eyes. 10) A) 34 ft B) 86 ft C) 60 ft D) 45 ft

Answers

Answer 1

The height of the pole above the level of the observer's eyes is 31.42 ft

Let the angle of elevation of the top of the pole from a point 47 ft away be α.

Let the angle of elevation of the top of the pole from the point 13 ft away be β.

Since the angle of elevation of a point 13 feet away is twice that from 47 ft away, we have that β = 2α.

If the height of the pole above the level of the observer's eye is h, we have that

tanβ = tan2α = h/13 and tanα = h/47

From trigonometric identities tan2α = 2tanα/(1 - tan²α)

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

tan2α = 2tanα/(1 - tan²α)

h/13 = 2h/47 ÷ [1 - (h/47)²]

Dividing through by h, we have

1/13 = 2/47 ÷ [1 - (h/47)²]

Cross-multiplying, we have

1/13 = 2/47 ÷ [1 - (h/47)²]

1 - (h/47)² = 2/47 × 13

1 - (h/47)² = 26/47

(h/47)² = 1 - 26/47

(h/47)² = (47 - 26)/47

(h/47)² = 21/47

Taking square-root of both sides, we have

h/47 = √(21/47)

Cross-multiplyng, we have

h = √(21/47) × 47

h = √(21 × 47)

h = √987

h = 31.42 ft

The height of the pole above the level of the observer's eyes is 31.42 ft

The length of a rectangle is three times its width. if the area of the rectangle is 75 in2, find its perimeter.

Answers

Answer:

  40 in

Step-by-step explanation:

For a width of w, the length is 3w and the area and perimeter are ...

  A = LW = (3w)(w) = 3w^2

  P = 2(L+W) = 2(3w +w) = 8w

We are given the area, so we can find w to be ...

  75 in^2 = 3w^2

  25 in^2 = w^2 . . . . . divide by 3

  5 in = w . . . . . . . . . square root

Then the perimeter is ...

Suppose `h\left(t\right)=-5t^{2}+10t+3`is an expression giving the height of a diver above the water (in meters), t seconds after the diver leaves the springboard.



a. How high above the water is the springboard? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The height of the springboard above the water should be h(0) : Read, the height at t = 0

h(0) = -5(0) + 10(0) + 3

h(0) = 0 + 0 + 3

h(0) = 3

a) 3 meters

b)  The time it takes the diver to hit water should be, the positive 0 solution for t.  Remember, in a quadratic equation,  there are two values for t where a parabola crosses the horizontal axis, which in this case would be t.  Just by looking at the function, h(t) = -5t2 + 10t + 3 , one should be able to see that it cannot be factored easily, so it requires the Quadratic Formula to find the zeros ; x = -b ±√(b2-4ac)  / 2a

Substitute t for x, and use the coefficients for a, b, c:

t  =  (-10 ± √((102 - 4(-5)(3)))/2(-5)

t = (-10 ±√(100 + 60))/-10

t = (-10 ±√160)/-10) ; Now factor the 160 to simplify:

t = (-10 ±√(10*16))/-10

t = (-10 ±4√10)/-10 ; Factor out leading coefficient of -2 from the numerator:

t = -2(5 ± 2√10)/-10

t = (5 ± 2√10)/5

Using a calculator to find the zeros, and disregarding the negative zero (because t starts at 0):

t ≈ 2.265

b) approx. 2.265 seconds for diver to hit water.

c) To find this, set the function equal to 3 to find what other value for t would be equal to 3 (we know one is 0).

-5tt + 10t + 3 = 3

-5t2 + 10t = 0 ; factor out t

t(-5t + 10) = 0

We know t = 0:

We also know that -5t + 10 = 0

-5t = -10

t = 2

c) 2 seconds. This is the time that diver would equal height of t=0 which is where he started, and where he equals the height of the springboard.

d and e) The peak of the dive (parabola), is determined using the formula h = -b/2a (Derived from the Quadratic Formula) to find the y value (in this case, the h value, answering e) and then using that result in the function to find the x value (in this case, the t value answering d) of the point where the parabola (dive path) reaches a maximum(height), or minimum(in upward opening parabolas).

h = -10/2(-5)

h = -10/-10

h = 1

h(1) = -5(1)2 + 10(1) + 3

h(1) = -5 + 10 + 3

h(1) = 8

d) At t = 1 second, diver will have reached peak of dive.

e) At t = 1 second, diver will have reached a maximum height of 8 meters.

A breakfast cereal producer makes its most popular product by combining just raisins and flakes in each box of cereal.

Find the probability that the total amount of product is less than 575\,\text{g}575g575, start text, g, end text.
You may round your answer to two decimal places.
P(T<575)\approx

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.When two normal variables are added, the mean is the sum of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this problem, the product is composed by flakes and raisins, and we have that:

[tex]\mu_F = 370, \sigma_F = 24, \mu_R = 170, \sigma_R = 7[/tex]

Hence, the distribution for the total amount of product has mean and standard deviation given by:

[tex]\mu = \mu_F + \mu_R = 370 + 170 = 540[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma_F^2 + \sigma_R^2} = \sqrt{24^2 + 7^2} = 25[/tex]

The probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g is the p-value of Z when X = 575, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{575 - 540}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9192.

0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.
