Have a look at the image attachment. I've added the points A, B, C, D such that
A = base of the diving board pole, or location of the pool deck
B = the location 1.6 meters directly above point A
C = location of the person's eyes
D = diving board location
The goal is to find the length of segment AD

We are given
AB = 1.6
BC = 3.67
what we want to find is
BD = x

Due to the fact we have similar right triangles ABC and CBD, we can form the proportion below and solve for x
AB/BC = BC/BD
1.6/3.67 = 3.67/x
1.6*x = 3.67*3.67
1.6*x = 13.4689
1.6*x/1.6 = 13.4689/1.6
x = 8.4180625

So BD is 8.4180625 meters
Use this to find the length of AD
AD = AB + BD
AD = 1.6 + 8.4180625
AD = 10.0180625
which rounds to 10.0 meters when rounding to the nearest tenth (one decimal place)

the total attendance at a concert in a theater hall was 1500, of this total 400 were children,850 were women , and the remaining
AleksandrR [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Below!

<u>Step-by step explanation:</u>

<u>We know that:</u>

  • 400 + 850 + m = 1500

<u>Solution of Question A:</u>

<u>Percent of children: Total children/Total attendance</u>

  • => 400/1500
  • => 4/15
  • => 0.27 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
  • => 0.27 x 100
  • => 27%

<u>Hence, the percent of children is about 27%.</u>

<u>Solution of Question B:</u>

<u>Percent of women: Total women/Total attendance</u>

  • => 850/1500
  • => 85/150
  • => 17/30
  • => 17/30 x 100
  • => 17/3 x 10
  • => 170/3
  • => 56.67%

<u>Hence, the percent of women is 56.67%.</u>

<u>Solution of Question C:</u>

  • 400 + 850 + m = 1500
  • => 1250 + m = 1500
  • => m = 1500 - 1250
  • => m = 250

<u>Percent of men: Total men/Total attendance</u>

  • => 250/1500
  • => 1/6
  • => 0.17 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
  • => 0.17 x 100
  • => 17%

<u>Hence, the percent of men is about 17%</u>

Hoped this helped.

I need help with these two
Alika [10]

Answer:

19. A

20. A

Step-by-step explanation:

19. tan(53)=15/x

x(tan(53))=15

x=15/(tan53))

x=11.3 feet


20. tan(60)=12/x

x(tan(60))=12

x=12/(tan(60))

x=6.93, or 4sqrt3

Given the two points (-1,-4) and (2,5): a. Find the slope between these two points
Dvinal [7]
Easy, using \frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2} to find the intercept:

\frac{-4-5}{-1-2}=

\frac{-9}{-3}=3

This is your slope. m=3

To find y=mx+b form

-4=3(-1)+b

-4=-3+b

-1=b

y=3x-1 in y=mx+b form
