Answer:

about 16°

Step-by-step explanation:

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Drawing the right triangle, we see that the shorter leg is 34 meters, and the longer leg is 122 meters. So the angle of elevation is:

\tan( \alpha )  =  \frac{34}{122}

\alpha  =  { \tan }^{ - 1}  \frac{34}{122}  = 15.57

Need help with two word problems
dangina [55]

Answer:

E. 18 children are buying their lunches

F. Rock must pay $50 each month

Step-by-step explanation:

E.

To find a percentage you multiply the number by the percentage;

60 x 70%(0.70) = 42 children brought their lunches

But we need the amount <u>buying</u> their lunches so we would subtract 60 by 42;

60 - 42 = 18 buying their lunches

F.

Again, to find the percentage we multiply it by the original;

$800 x $25(0.25) = $200 Rock paid for the down payment on the sofa

Now we need to find how much Rock still needs to pay for the sofa;

$800 - $200 = $600 more needed to pay for the sofa

Lastly, we must find how much Rock will need to pay <u>each month</u> to pay the rest of the $600. There are 12 months in a year, so we divide that by the amount left;

$600 / 12 = $50 needs to be paid each month for a year

Find the vertex of the function given below.<br> y = 3x2 + 6x +1
anastassius [24]

Answer: The coordinates of the vertex are : (-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation: To find the x coordinate, we use the formula:

Xv = -b/2a = -6/(2.3) = -6/6 = -1

Replacing x by -1, we write:

y = 3. (-1)^2 + 6. (-1) +1 = 3 - 6 + 1 = -2
