The bearing of the tree from Q is 296.565°

<h3>How to determine the height of the tree?</h3>

The figure that illustrates the bearing and the distance is added as an attachment

The given parameters are:

Base of the tree, b = 50 meters

Angle (x) = 32 degrees

Calculate the height (h) of the tree using:

tan(x) = height/base

So, we have:

tan(32°) = h/50

Make h the subject

h= 50 × tan(32°)

Evaluate

h = 31.24

Hence, the height of the tree is 31.24 meters

<h3>How to determine the distance between Q and the base of the tree?</h3>

The distance (d) between Q and the base of the tree

This is calculated using the following Pythagoras theorem

d = √(100² + 50²)

Evaluate

d = 111.80

Hence, the distance between Q and the base of the tree is 111.80 meters

<h3>How to determine the angle of elevation?</h3>

The angle of elevation (x) using the following tangent trigonometric ratio

tan(x) = h/d

This gives

tan(x) = 31.24/111.80

Evaluate the quotient

tan(x) = 0.2794

Take the arc tan of both sides

x = 15.61

<h3>The bearing of the tree from Q </h3>

This is calculated using:

Angle of bearing = 270 + arctan(50/100)

Evaluate the arc tan

Angle of bearing = 270 + 26.565

Evaluate the sum

Angle of bearing = 296.565

Hence, the bearing of the tree from Q is 296.565 degrees

How do answer an equation that have decimals/ percentage

bazaltina [42]

If you had an equation such as 50%x=20, I would convert the percent to a decimal first. So, 0.50x=20. Then I would change the decimal into a simplified fraction. In this case it is 1/2. So, 1/2x=20. Then I would reciprocate the fraction and multiply that by 20. So x=20*2/1. From this, we would get x=40/1, but the 1 is not necessary, so we can write the final answer as x=40.

The rule R x-axis ∘ T⟨–5, 3⟩ is applied to the point (–3, –2). Where is the image in the coordinate system?

ollegr [7]

Given:

Rule of transformation is rule R x-axis ∘ T⟨–5, 3⟩.

The point is (-3,-2).

To find:

The image of given point after the transformation.

Solution:

Consider the given point be P(-3,-2).

Rule of transformation is rule R x-axis ∘ T⟨–5, 3⟩. If means first we have apply translation T⟨–5, 3⟩ after that we have to apply reflection R x-axis.

If a figure translated by T⟨–5, 3⟩, then

$(x,y)\to (x-5,y+3)$

$P(-3,-2)\to P'(-3-5,-2+3)$

$P(-3,-2)\to P'(-8,1)$

If a figure reflected by R x-axis, then

$(x,y)\to (x,-y)$

$P'(-8,1)\to P''(-8,-1)$

Therefore, the image of given point after transformation is (-8,-1).

The data are the number of machines in a gym. You sample five gyms. One gym has 12 machines, one gym has 15 machines, one gym ha

Verizon [17]

Answer:

Quantitative discrete data.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a data for the number of machines in five gyms. One gym has 12 machines, one gym has 15 machines, one gym has ten machines, one gym has 22 machines, and the other gym has 20 machines. We are asked to determine the type of the data.

We can see that our given data represents quantity of machines, so our data will be a quantitative data.

Since each gym has a specific number of machines, so our data is discrete and it is not continuous.

Therefore, our given data is a quantitative discrete data.
