The balloon’s vertical distance above the ground is 570.3 feet

<h3>Angle of elevation and depression</h3>

Given the following parameters

The angle of depression = 36 degrees

Base distance = 785 feet

<h3>Required</h3>

vertical distance above the ground (H)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

tan 36 = H/785
H = 785tan36

H = 570.3 feet

Hence the balloon’s vertical distance above the ground is 570.3 feet

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Part 1) $-17\frac{8}{9}$ -----> $-6\frac{4}{9}-3\frac{2}{9}-8\frac{2}{9}$

Part 2) $-15.11$ ------> $-12.48-(-2.99)-5.62$

Part 3) $-19\frac{8}{9}$ -----> $-19\frac{2}{9}-4\frac{1}{9}-(-3\frac{4}{9})$

Part 4) $-201.65$ -----> $-353.92-(-283.56)-131.29$

Part 5) $74$ ------> $83\frac{1}{5}-108\frac{2}{5}-(-99\frac{1}{5})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we have

$-6\frac{4}{9}-3\frac{2}{9}-8\frac{2}{9}$

To calculate the subtraction convert the mixed numbers to an improper fractions

$6\frac{4}{9}=\frac{6*9+4}{9}=\frac{58}{9}$

$3\frac{2}{9}=\frac{3*9+2}{9}=\frac{29}{9}$

$8\frac{2}{9}=\frac{8*9+2}{9}=\frac{74}{9}$

substitute

$-\frac{58}{9}-\frac{29}{9}-\frac{74}{9}=-\frac{(58+29+74)}{9}=-\frac{161}{9}$

Convert to mixed number

$-\frac{161}{9}=-(\frac{153}{9}+\frac{8}{9})=-17\frac{8}{9}$

Part 2) we have

$-12.48-(-2.99)-5.62$

To calculate the subtraction eliminate the parenthesis first

$-12.48-(-2.99)-5.62=-12.48+2.99-5.62=-15.11$

Part 3) we have

$-19\frac{2}{9}-4\frac{1}{9}-(-3\frac{4}{9})$

To calculate the subtraction convert the mixed numbers to an improper fractions

$19\frac{2}{9}=\frac{19*9+2}{9}=\frac{173}{9}$

$4\frac{1}{9}=\frac{4*9+1}{9}=\frac{37}{9}$

$3\frac{4}{9}=\frac{3*9+4}{9}=\frac{31}{9}$

substitute

$-\frac{173}{9}-\frac{37}{9}-(-\frac{31}{9})$

Eliminate the parenthesis

$-\frac{173}{9}-\frac{37}{9}+\frac{31}{9}=\frac{(-173-37+31)}{9}=-\frac{179}{9}$

Convert to mixed number

$-\frac{179}{9}=-(\frac{171}{9}+\frac{8}{9})=-19\frac{8}{9}$

Part 4) we have

$-353.92-(-283.56)-131.29$

To calculate the subtraction eliminate the parenthesis first

$-353.92+283.56-131.29=-201.65$

Part 5) we have

$83\frac{1}{5}-108\frac{2}{5}-(-99\frac{1}{5})$

To calculate the subtraction convert the mixed numbers to an improper fractions

$83\frac{1}{5}=\frac{83*5+1}{5}=\frac{416}{5}$

$108\frac{2}{5}=\frac{108*5+2}{5}=\frac{542}{5}$

$99\frac{1}{5}=\frac{99*5+1}{5}=\frac{496}{5}$

substitute

$\frac{416}{5}-\frac{542}{5}-(-\frac{496}{5})$

Eliminate the parenthesis

$\frac{416}{5}-\frac{542}{5}+\frac{496}{5}=\frac{(416-542+496)}{5}=\frac{370}{5}=74$

Find the critical numbers of the function. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If an answer does not exist, enter DNE

Furkat [3]

Answer:

x = -6 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In math, the critical points of a function are the points where the derivative equals zero.

So, first we will find the derivative of the function. The derivative is:

$f'(x)=3x^2 +6x-72$

Now, we are going to make the derivative equal zero and find the answers of the equation.

$3x^2 +6x-72=0\\3(x^2 +2x-24)=0\\3(x+6)(x-4)=0\\$

So we have that the critical points are the answers to this equation:

$x+6= 0 \\x= - 6$

and

$x-4=0\\x=4$

Thus, the critical points are x=-6 and x=4
