A boat heads north at 30 mph while a steamer heads east at 40 mph at the same time. When is the distance between them 50 mi?

let t = time (hrs) that they are 50 mi apart

Use pythag here; a^2 + b^2 = c^2; dist = speed * time

(30t)^2 (40t)^2 = 50^2

900t^2 + 1600t^2 = 2500

It's obvious that t = 1 hr

We'll use standard labeling of right triangle ABC, C=90 degrees, legs a, b, hypotenuse c.

11.

Right triangle, cliff peak A, boat B, angle opposite cliff is B=28.9 deg. adjacent leg a=65.7 m, cliff height is leg b.

tan B = b/a

b = a tan B = 65.7 tan 28.9° = 36.3 m

12.

Similar story, boat at B, opposite b=3.5 m, rope c=12 m

sin B = b/c

B = arcsin b/c = arcsin (3.5/12) = 17.0°

13.

c=124 m, A=58°

sin A = a/c

a = c sin A = 124 sin 58 = 105.2 m

14.

That's a hypotenuse c=4-1.2 = 2.8 m to a height b=1.8m so

cos A = b/c

A = arccos b/c = arccos (1.8/2.8) = 50.0°

15.

Not a right triangle, an isosceles triangle.  Half of it is a right triangle with hypotenuse one arm, c=9.8 cm and angle opposite half the base of B=62/2=31°.  We're after d=2b:

sin B = b/c

b = c sin B

d = 2b = 2 c sin B = 2(9.8) sin 31 = 10.1 cm

Almost equilateral

(50 points) Which graph is defined by the function given below?
marta [7]

Answer:

Graph B

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x - 3)(x - 3)

The x intercepts are at 3

Since both intercepts are at 3, the vertex is at 3

We know it is an upwards facing parabola since it is quadratic and the constant out front is positive

How many integers between 10000 and 99999, inclusive, are divisible by 3 or<br> 5 or 7?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: Hence, there are approximately 48884 integers are divisible by 3 or 5 or 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Integers between 10000 and 99999 = 99999-10000+1=90000

n( divisible by 3) = \dfrac{90000}{3}=30000

n( divisible by 5) = \dfrac{90000}{5}=18000

n( divisible by 7) = \dfrac{90000}{7}=12857.14

n( divisible by 3 and 5) = n(3∩5)=\dfrac{90000}{15}=6000

n( divisible by 5 and 7) = n(5∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{35}=2571.42

n( divisible by 3 and 7) = n(3∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{21}=4285.71

n( divisible by 3,5 and 7) = n(3∩5∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{105}=857.14

As we know the formula,

n(3∪5∪7)=n(3)+n(5)+n(7)-n(3∩5)-n(5∩7)-n(3∩7)+n(3∩5∩7)

=30000+18000+12857.14-6000-2571.42-4258.71+857.14\\\\=48884.15

Hence, there are approximately 48884 integers are divisible by 3 or 5 or 7.
