MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

T=N*M and he needs to read 44 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: Let T represent the total amount of books that Alan needs to read in 11 months.

If we plug in the information we have been given we will find the total:

T=N*M

T=4*11

T=44

Alan has to read 44 books within a 11 month period.

One hour after yolanda started walking from x to y, a distance of 45 miles, bob started walking along the same road from y to x.
Rufina [12.5K]
<span>Answer: When bob starts walking The distance between them is 45-3 = 42 miles If they meet at time t then Yolanda would have walked X/3 minutes and Bob would have walked (42-X)/4 mins X/3 = (42-X)/4 so X = 18 Bob would have walked 42-18 = 24 miles.</span>

John wants to measure the width of a stream using the methods he has learned in geometry. He puts a stake in the ground opposite
otez555 [7]

John's method to determine the width of the stream uses the knowledge

that the tangent of 60° is approximately 1.7.

The proper sequence John would use to find the width of the stream are;

  • Step 1; <u>John</u><u> drives a stake opposite the tree to establish a line between two points</u>

  • Step 2; <u>John uses a </u><u>compass </u><u>to walk away from the stakes at a right angle</u>

  • Step 3; <u>On the path John walks until he finds a </u><u>line </u><u>of sight to the tree that equals 60 degrees</u>

  • Step 4; <u>John drives a second </u><u>stake </u><u>in the ground</u>

  • Step 5; <u>John measures the the </u><u>distance </u><u>between the two stakes</u>

  • Step 6; <u>John </u><u>multiplies </u><u>the distance between the two stakes by</u><u> 1.7</u><u> to find the distance</u>.

Reasons:

The steps that can be used to measure the width of the stream are;

Step 1: Drive a stake opposite the tree on the other side of the stream.

Step 2: With the aid of a compass, walk at right angles to the line formed by the stake and the tree.

Step 3; Keep walking along the previous path till a point is reached where the angle formed between the line of site to the tree and the walk path is 60°.

Step 4; At the point where the line of sight to the tree is 60°, a second stake is driven in the ground.

Step 5; Measure the distance between the stakes that are placed in the ground.

Step 6; Given that by trigonometry, the ratio of the width of the stream to the distance between the two stakes is tan(60°) ≈ 1.7, multiply the distance between the two stakes by 1.7 to find the width of the stream.

\displaystyle tan(60^{\circ}) = \mathbf{\frac{Width \ of \ stream}{Distance \ between \ stakes}}

<em>The possible question options are;</em>

<em>John measures the the distance between the two stakes</em>

<em>John uses a compass to walk away from the stakes at a right angle</em>

<em>John multiplies the distance between the two stakes by 1.7 to find the distance</em>

<em>John drives a second stake in the ground</em>

<em>On the path John walks until he finds a line of sight to the tree that equals 60 degrees </em>

<em>John drives a stake opposite the tree to establish a line between two points.</em>
