You are standing 30 meters from a hot air balloon that is preparing to take
off. The angle of elevation from you to the top of the hot air balloon is 28º. Find the
distance from you to the top of the balloon. (Round to two decimal places)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance to the top of the balloon is approximately 33.977 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The (horizontal) distance from the hot air balloon from the observer, l = 30 m

The angle of elevation to the top of the balloon, θ = 28°

With the balloon standing upright, the distance to the top of the balloon, d, the height of the balloon, h and the horizontal distance to the balloon, l, form a right triangle, where;

d = The hypotenuse side

l = The leg adjacent to the reference (given) angle,

h = The leg opposite to the given angle, θ

By trigonometric ratios, we have;

[tex]cos\angle X = \dfrac{Adjacent\ leg \ length}{Hypotenuse \ length}[/tex]

From which we get;

[tex]cos\angle \theta = \dfrac{l}{d}[/tex]

[tex]cos(28^{\circ}) = \dfrac{30 \ m}{d}[/tex]

[tex]d = \dfrac{30 \ m}{cos(28^{\circ}) } \approx 33.977 \, m[/tex]

The distance to the top of the balloon, d ≈ 33.977 m

Answer:

i can see the actual question, what is it?

In right triangles one of the angles will always be 90 degrees.

So if you had a right triangle with one right angle, a number, and a number, they always have to add up to 90 degrees as well, because a triangle is always 180 degrees

so

Find the slope of the in line containing the ordered pairs. (7 marks)
a. A(2,-5), B(-2,6)

Answers

Answer:

= -11/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope given two points

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (6 - -5)/(-2 -2)

   = (6+5)/(-2-2)

    = 11/-4

    = -11/4

Answer:

-2.75 (-2 3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

you can do rise of a run whenever you have two points so you have 6-(-5)/-2-2 and solve so -11/4 and that equals -2.75.

Carly is buying deli meat for her lunches this week. Turkey is on sale for $5.80 per pound. If Carly buys 1.25 pounds of turkey, how much money does she spend?

Answers

Answer:

Carly will have to spend $7.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

1 pound of turkey = $5.80

To find how much 1.25 pounds of turkey will cost, multiply:

5.80 x 1.25 = 7.25

Therefore, 1.25 pounds of turkey will cost $7.25

I really hope this helps!

-SpaceMarsh

6.03 i believe , she gets one pound which equals to 5.80 and .25 more if you divide 5.80 with .25 you get .23 adding 5.80 with .23 equals $6.03

Review this code snippet: var time = 15; var greeting; if ( time < 12 ) { greeting = “good morning”; } else if ( time < 18 ) { greeting = “good afternoon”; } else { greeting = “good evening”; } console.log(greeting); What is the message that gets printed to the console?

Answers

Answer:  good afternoon

Explanation:

We're given that time = 15

From this, we see that time < 12 evaluates to false, because 15 is not smaller than 12. Put another way, 15 < 12 is false.

But time < 18 is true since 15 < 18 is true. So we execute the second block of code and have the greeting variable be set to the string "good afternoon". This is what's displayed to the console without any quotes of course.

Which of
below equations has a graph that passes
through the points (2, 3) and (0,-1) ?

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope formula y-y1=m(x-x1)

slope formula y1-y2/x1-x2

Points provided (2, 3) and (0,-1)

Let's find the slope. To find slope we need to plug in our numbers in the slope formula (y1-y2/x1-x2)

3-(-1)/2-0

4/2

=2

so slope (m) is 2

Now let's plug this in our point-slope formula (y-y1=m(x-x1)) with one pair of points (2,3)

y-3=2(x-2)

so, therefore, our answer is D!
