<h2>Answer:</h2>
First of all let's write the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line, which is:
So we just need to find to solve this problem.
Moreover, this problem tells us that Amir drove from Jerusalem down to the lowest place on Earth, the Dead Sea, descending at a rate of 12 meters per minute. So this rate is the slope of the line, that is:
Negative slope because Amir is descending. So:
To find , we need to use the information that tells us that he was at sea level after 30 minutes of driving, so this can be written as the point
. Therefore, substituting this point into our equation:
Finally, the equation of Amir's altitude relative to sea level (in meters) and time (in minutes) is:
Whose graph is shown bellow.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle always consists of it being 180 degrees. The box on the triangle on angle A depicts that it is a right angle, 90 degrees. And since Angle B is given at 45, angle C must be 45 degrees as well, since 180-45-90 (triangle angles=given angles for A and B) equal up to 45. When the angles beside the right angle is both identical and the same, the sides that correspond with that triangle is also the same. AC is given at 9 feet, and since Angle C and B both have the same angles, AB must ALSO be a 9ft.
Now, since we know the two sides, it is very easy to find BC, or the hypotenuse of the triangle, using the Pythagorean Theorem: , where a and b are sides, and c is the hypotenuse (or the long end) of a right triangle.
We can plug both 9s in for a and b since they're both the same, and it should equal to
9^2+9^2=c^2.
9^2 is 9*9, and that is 81. We have two of these so add them together to find 162. Since c^2 is equal to 162, we would need to square root both sides so we can find a number that equals c.
We can either plug this into a calculator, and we should get something around 12.72, and that would be the same as C if you plug that value into a calculator.
You can also simplify the radical if you know how to. 162 is 81 times 2 (example) and 81 is 9*9, so we can add that to the outside and 2 is still under the radical. But this would only make sense if you know how to do that.
