The softball team stopped for ice cream after a big game. five 2-scoop cones cost the same as three sundaes. If they bought nine

<span>Let the cost of 2-scoop cones be x, and the cost of sundaes be y.
The first statement tells us that 5x = 3y
The second statement tells us that 9x + 6y = 19.95
Then we need to calculate the value of y (the cost of a sundae).
From our first equation, y = 5x/3. Substituting this into the second equation:
9x + 6(5x/3) = 19.95
9x + 10x = 19.95
19x = 19.95
x = 1.05
Substituting back into the first equation: 5(1.05) = 3y
5.25 = 3y
y = 1.75
Therefore the cost of a sundae is $1.75.

The angle of elevation of a tower, 45 m high from a ball on the ground 52 degree (a) how far is the ball from the foot of the to
blsea [12.9K]

The distance of the ball from the foot of the tower is : 35.18m

The ball would be moved 57.2m away from the foot of the tower for the Angle of elevation to be halved.

<h3>What is angle of elevation?</h3>

Angle of elevation is the angle formed between the horizontal and the  line of view from the vertical.

Analysis:

The height of the tower and the distance of the ball from the foot of the tower form a right angle triangle.

so we use trigonometry.

a) let distance of the ball from foot of tower be x.

  so that, tan 52 = 45/x

  x = 45/tan52

  x = 45/1.279 = 35.18m

b) let the distance of the ball in the new position from the foot of the tower be y.

if the angle of elevation is halved, then new angle is 52/2 = 26°

 tan 26 = 45/y

y = 45/tan26 = 45/0.487 = 92.4m

distance moved from old position to new position = 92.4 - 35.18 = 57.2m

In conclusion, the distance of the ball from the foot of the tower and the distance the ball should move to make its elevation 26° are 35.18m and 57.2m respectively.

How to change from expo to radical form
Natalka [10]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the exponent is a/b  then a is the power and b is the value of the radical.

Example:   x^2/3  =   ∛x².    2 is the power and 3 is the radical.

Answers:

1)  7^2/3 =  ∛7²

5)  √3 = 3^1/2

9)  (∛27)⁴ = 27^4/3 =  3^4 = 81.
