You are on a ship at sea. You see a lighthouse in the distance. You know the lighthouse is 145 feet tall. You measure the angle of elevation to the top of the lighthouse at 5 degrees. How far are you from the bottom of the lighthouse? *

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1657.14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan = opposite / adjacent

tan 5 = 145 / adjacent

0.0875 =  145 / adjacent

adjacent = 145 / 0.0875

= 1657.14 ft

. In an enlargement with scale factor 2, which of the following statements is not true?
A. Each length is multiplied by 2
B. Each angle remains the same
C. The shape of the figure does not change.
D. The size of the figure does not change

Answers

Answer:

option B , C , D

Step-by-step explanation:

Enlargemet is a rule which transfers an object into an object of the same form by enlarging its size in a given ration.

Remember

If k > 1 , the given object is enlarged. Since the scale fator (k) is 2 and it is greater than 1 the size of the figure enlarges . So according to this definition option B , c and d are incorrect.

only option A satisfies . So out of all these statements only option A is true.

formula :

(x , y) = (kx , ky)   ( k means scale factor)

here scale factor is multiplied to the coordinate x and y.

since the scale factor is 2 it means that the length or the value of both x and y coordinate is multiplied by 2.So, it is true . And rest are not true.

To find the area of the base, multiply 15 times 16 then divide by 2

Then multiply by 19 to find the volume of the shape

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is a triangle

The area of a triangle = base length times height divided by 2

The triangle has a base length of 16 and a height of 15

So to find the area of the base we multiply 15 times 16 and divide that by 2

The volume of a prism is equal to the area of the base times the length of the prism

The length of the prism is 19 so we would then multiply by 19

if i made 11$ an hour working at publix how much would i have in 4 year's?




i need to know because me and my friend plan to work at publix as soon as we turn 14 and in 4 year's when we turn 18 we want to have enough to move into an apartment/house right away​

Answers

Answer:

40*52*11*4 = $91,520

But I am skeptical that you would earn dollars where you would be working... I assume that you do not work in the is because 11 dollars per hour is written at $11/hr not 11$ /hr, thus I assume that you do not live anywhere that pays in U.S. dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: $385440 if you work non stop, for every hour of those 4 years

Step-by-step explanation: 24 hours in a day, 24*365=8760

8760*4=35040 total hours.

Now if we multiply that by 11, because you get 11 dollars an hour,

35040*11= $385440 in total

But that's not counting items you may buy, and it also assumes you work every hour of every day. If you want a more realistic amount, you're gonna have to specify the hours that you work.

In this case, a= 2x -y and b= y +2.

(2x -y)² -(y +2)²

Find the direct variation equation

Answers

Answers:

The direct variation equation is y = 5xIf x = 4, then y = 20

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

Explanation:

Let's say that the letter k replaces the green box

We have the equation y = kx

Plug in (x,y) = (7,35) to get the equation 35 = k*7

Dividing both sides by 7 leads to k = 5

Therefore, the direct variation equation is y = 5x

We can check this by plugging in x = 7

y = 5x

y = 5*7

y = 35

So x = 7 leads to y = 35 as expected.

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

Do the same for x = 4

y = 5x

y = 5*4

y = 20 when x = 4

Side note: direct variation equations always go through the origin.

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

if y varies directly with x, then it takes the form y=mx

to find m, substitute in the values of x and y to get 35=m*7 and simplify to get that m=5

then the equation becomes y=5x

substitute in the value they gave for x which is 4 to get y=5*4

to get that y=20

Write an expression in simplest form for the perimeter of a right triangle with leg lengths of 12a5 and 9a5.

Answers

Given:

The lengths of legs of a right triangle are [tex]12a^5[/tex] and [tex]9a^5[/tex].

To find:

The perimeter of a right triangle.

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{Leg_1^2+Leg_2^2}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{(12a^5)^2+(9a^5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{144a^{10}+81a^{10}}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{225a^{10}}[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{(15a^{5})^2}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=15a^5[/tex]

Now, the perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all of its sides.

[tex]Perimeter=Leg_1+Leg_2+Hypotenuse[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter=12a^5+9a^5+15a^5[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter=36a^5[/tex]

Therefore, the perimeter of the right triangle is [tex]36a^5[/tex].
