Step-by-step explanation:

since the equation is v = 1.225 × sqrt(a)

we can plug in the known values to find the altitude.

so:

(67.1/1.225)^2 = a

a = 3000

Base on the visibility formula v = 1.225√a, the altitude at which Dereck is hang gliding is 7.4 miles

<h3>How to find altitude using visibility formula?</h3>

The visibility formula is given as follows:

v = 1.225√a

where

  • a = altitude
  • v = visibility

Therefore,

v = 67.1 miles

v = 1.225√a

67.1 = 1.225√a

divide both sides by 1.225

√a = 67.1 / 1.225

√a = 54.7755102041

square both sides

√a² = √54.7755102041

a = 7.40104789878

a = 7.4 miles

The base of a solid oblique pyramid is an equilateral triangle with a base edge length of 18 inches What is the height of the tr
ExtremeBDS [4]
The height of the triangular base of the pyramid is calculated through the equation,
                                        h = (cos x)(18 in)
where h is height and x is half of the angle of the triangle. Since the triangle is equilateral, the value of  x is 30°. Substituting,
                                        h = (cos 30°)(18 in)
                                        h = 15.59 in
Thus, the height of the base is approximately 15.59 inches.

Isaac is making soft pretzel nuggets. His recipe says that, after he makes the dough, he should divide it into 8 equal pieces. T
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 192 pretzels

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

number of pieces = 8

length of each piece = 2 ft

length of each pretzel = 1 in

number of pretzels = x

Process

1.- Convert ft to in

                        1 ft --------------- 12 in

                         2 ft --------------- x

                         x = (2 x 12) / 1

                         x = 24 ft

2.- Divide the length of each piece by the length of each pretzel

                       24/1 = 24 pretzels per piece

3.- Multiply the number of pretzels per the number of pieces

                       24 x 8 = 192 pretzels
