It is given that z varies directly with x and inversely with the square of y so it follows:

z=k\frac{x}{y^2}

It is also given that z=18 when x=6 and y=2 so it follows:

\begin{gathered} 18=k\frac{6}{2^2} \\ k=\frac{18\times4}{6} \\ k=12 \end{gathered}

So the equation of variation becomes:

z=12\frac{x}{y^2}

Therefore the value of z when x=7 and y=7 is given by:

\begin{gathered} z=\frac{12\times7}{7^2} \\ z=\frac{12}{7} \\ z\approx1.7143 \end{gathered}

Hence the value of z is 12/7 or 1.7143.

From a hot-air balloon, Juan measures a 36° angle of depression to a landmark that's
Masja [62]

Using the slope concept, it is found that the balloon's vertical distance above the ground is of 437.4 feet.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

The slope is given by the <u>vertical change divided by the horizontal change</u>, and it's also the tangent of the angle of depression.

In this problem:

  • The vertical change is x.
  • The horizontal change is of 602 ft.
  • The angle is of 36º.

Hence, applying the concept:

tan (36º) = x/602

x = 602 x tan(36º)

x = 437.4.
