A. A gorilla casts a shadow that is 600 centimeters long. A 92-centimeter tall chimpanzee casts a shadow that is 276 centimeters

long. What is the height of the gorilla in meters?
B. An ostrich is 108 inches tall. If it's shadow is 162 inches, and a emu standing next to it casts a 90-inch shadow, how tall is the emu?

279:92=3
600:3=200
the gorila is 200 cm long that is 2 m

162:168=1.5

90:1.5=60 inches
that is how long is the emu

(1 inch= 2.54 cm
2.54*60=152.4 cm thats in cm)

What is the length of the hypotenuse? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 12^2 = c^2

25 + 144 = c^2

169 = c^2

13 x 13 = 169

Find sec 2Theta in exact value

forsale [732]

Answer:

$sec(2\theta)=-\frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

step 1

Find $cos(\theta)$

we know that

$tan^2(\theta)+1=sec^2(\theta)$

we have

$tan(\theta)=3$

substitute

$3^2+1=sec^2(\theta)$

$sec^2(\theta)=10$

$sec(\theta)=\pm\sqrt{10}$

Remember that

Angle theta lie in Quadrant I

so

$sec(\theta)$ is positive

$sec(\theta)=\sqrt{10}$

Remember that

$sec(\theta)=\frac{1}{cos(\theta)}$

therefore

$cos(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}$

step 2

Find $sin(\theta)$

we know that

$tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}$

$sin(\theta)=tan(\theta)cos(\theta)$

we have

$cos(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}$

$tan(\theta)=3$

substitute

$sin(\theta)=(3)(\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}})$

$sin(\theta)=\frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}$

step 3

Find $cos(2\theta)$

we know that

$cos(2\theta)=2cos^2(\theta)-1$

we have

$cos(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}$

substitute

$cos(2\theta)=2(\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}})^2-1$

$cos(2\theta)=\frac{1}{5}-1$

$cos(2\theta)=-\frac{4}{5}$

Remember that

$sec(2\theta)=\frac{1}{cos(2\theta)}$

therefore

$sec(2\theta)=-\frac{5}{4}$

Kali invests $3516 in a savings account with a fixed annual interest rate of 7% compounded 3 times per year. What will the accou

ZanzabumX [31]

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$3516\\
r=rate\to 7\%\to \frac{7}{100}\to &0.07\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{well, is just three}
\end{array}\to &3\\
t=years\to &7
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=3516\left(1+\frac{0.07}{3}\right)^{3\cdot 7}\implies A=3516\left( \frac{307}{300} \right)^{21}\implies A\approx 5707.0070$

6, 12, 18 and 24 are the first four multiples of 6.<br><br> What are the next 2 multiples?

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

30 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

six times two equals 12

6 * 3 = 18

and six times four equals 24.

to get the next two multiples, You need to multiply 6 by 5, and then 6

6 * 5 = 30 and 6 * 6 = 36
