Answer:
<em>The angle of elevation of the sun is 32°</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Right Triangles</u>
The flagpole and the ground form a right angle (90°). In triangles with right angles, the trigonometric ratios are satisfied.
Each acute angle has an adjacent leg and an opposite leg. The tangent ratio relates to both legs.
The opposite leg to angle x is 20 ft and the adjacent leg is 32 ft, thus:
Calculate x by using the inverse tangent:
The angle of elevation of the sun is 32°
Answers:
8. 12x+3= 27
move 3 to the other side , sign changes from +3 to -3
12x+3-3=27-3
12x= 24
divide by 12 for both sides
12x/12=24/12
x= 2
9. 6(y-10)=42
mutiply the bracket by 6
(6)(y)(6)(-10)= 6y-60
6y-60= 42
move -60 to the other side, sign changes from -60 to +60
6y-60+60=42+60
6y=102
divide by 6
6y/6=102/6
y=17
10. 9x-2=4x+13
move +4x to the other side
9x-4x-2= 4x-4x+13
5x-2= 13
5x-2+2= 13+2
5x= 15
divide by 5 for both sides
5x/5= 15/5
x= 3
11. 4/3y+5/2y= 1
find the common denominator for both of the fractions which is 6.
Mutiply by 2 for 4/3y .
4(2)/3(2)y=8/6y
Mutiply by 3 for 5/2y
5(3)/2(3y)= 15/6y
8/6y+15/6y= 23/6y
23/6y= 1
Mutiply both sides by 6/23
23/6y(6/23)= 1 (6/23)
Cross out 6 and 6 , divide by 6 and then becomes 1.
Cross out 23 and 23, divide by 23 and then becomes 1.
1*1*y=y
y= 6/23
77 unicorns, because yesterday the ratio was 6:5 and today it is 3:4. If you add the numbers for both ratios together, you get 11 and 7. Finding the LCM of these two gives 77 (because 7 and 11 are both prime).
You find the LCM of the sums because when you find values based on ratios, you divide value by the sum of the ratio.
e.g. I have 100 fruits. The ratio of apples to oranges is 2:3. How many apples are there?
To solve this you'd add 2 and 3 (5), divide 100 by 5 (20), multiply that by 2 (40) because that's the ratio of apples to oranges.
In this case, you do the reverse. So If I have 77 unicorns, then yesterday there were (77/11 = 7, 7*6= 42, 7*5= 35) 42 green unicorns and 35 yellow. The sum of 42 and 35 is 77. If you do this process with the other ratio you'll get similar results as well.
Answer:
28 and 14
Step-by-step explanation:
28+14= 42
28-14=14
Answer:
1/2 or 0.5 (same value, different form)
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok...since I can't actually graph it, we can make a table out of it....
x y
7 -1
9 0
From -1 to 0, we add 1 (this is for the y section)
From 7 to 9, we add 2 (this is for the x section)
Now all we have to do is divide the y with the x
y/x = 1/2
The slope will be 1/2 (fraction form) 0.5 (decimal form)
Hope this helped!
