Jonathan abd his two friends want to share 2 1/2 pounds of gum balls. If they share the gum balls evenly, how manypounds of gum

Trava [24]

Answer:

Jonathan and each of his two friends would get $\frac{5}{6}\ pounds$ of gum balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Amount of gum balls = $2\frac{1}{2}\ pounds$

$2\frac{1}{2}\ pounds$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{5}{2}\ pounds$

Amount of gum balls = $\frac{5}{2}\ pounds$

Number of people gumballs has to be divided = 3

We need to find how many pounds of gum balls will they each of them get.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

Amount of gum balls each would get is equal to Total Amount of gum balls divided by Number of people.

framing in equation form we get;

Amount of gum balls each would get= $\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{3}=\frac{5}{2}\times\frac{1}{3}= \frac{5}{6}\ pounds$

Hence Jonathan and each of his two friends would get $\frac{5}{6}\ pounds$ of gum balls.

To aid in sea navigation, Little Gull Island Lighthouse shines a light from a height of 91 feet above sea level with an unknown

algol13

Answer:

$\approx 6^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Little Gull Island Lighthouse shines a light from a height of 91 feet above the sea level.

The angle of depression is unknown.

Distance of the point at sea surface from the base of lighthouse is 865 ft.

This situation can be modeled or can be represented as the figure attached in the answer area.

The situation can be represented by a right angled $\triangle ABC$ in which we are given the base and the height of the triangle.

And we have to find the value of $\angle BAD \ or \ \angle C$ (Because they are the internal vertically opposite angles).

Using tangent ratio:

$tan\theta = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

$tanC = \dfrac{AC}{BC}\\\Rightarrow tanC = \dfrac{91}{865}\\\Rightarrow tanC = 0.105\\\Rightarrow \angle C \approx 6^\circ$

Therefore, the angle of depression is: $\approx 6^\circ$
