To solve this, first we'll find the area of the rectangle A,

Area=length × width
?=24m×20m
480m=24m×20m
480m squared=area of the rectangle A

now we'll find the width of rectangle B,
"the width of rectangle B is 12 meters less than the width of rectangle A",
20m-12m= 8m
8m=width of rectangle B

finally we'll find the length of rectangle B,
area of the rectangle B= 480msquared
width= 8m
length=? (to find this divide the area by the width)
480÷8=60m
length of the rectangle B=60m

Given: A= {(2,3), (5,1).(-3,-2), (0, 3))<br> What is the domain of A?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The domain is (2,5,-3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

For a set of ordered pairs, the first elements of each ordered pair represents the domain of the function and second elements of each ordered pair represents the range of the function.  

The domain of a function is the set of all possible values of x

In this problem we have

A= \ [(2,3), (5,1).(-3,-2), (0, 3)\ ]

therefore

The domain is (2,5,-3,0)

Towers A and B are located 5 miles apart. A ranger spots a fire at a 42-degree angle from tower A. Another fire ranger spots the
lord [1]

Answer: The fire is 3.5 miles from tower B

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram. The triangle in the attached diagram illustrates the clues given in the question. Both rangers are standing at points A and B respectively with a distance of 5 miles between them, which is line AB. Also, one ranger spots a fire from a tower at an angle of 42 degrees, which is point A. Another ranger spots the same fire from another tower, but from an angle of 64 degrees, which is point B. The fire is at point C on the triangle. Now we have a triangle with only one side known (5 miles) and three angles known (the third angle is computed as 180 - {64+42} which equals 74) which are 64 degrees, 42 degrees and 74 degrees.

The distance from the fire to tower B is calculated using the law of sines. (Note that this is not a right angled triangle, hence we cannot use trigonometric ratios). The law of sines is expressed as follows;

a/SinA = b/SinB or

a/SinA = c/SinC

Depending on the sides and angles we are given and the ones we are to calculate.

The distance from the fire to tower B is line BC, labeled as a in our diagram. Using the law of sines

a/SinA = c/SinC

(Note also that a is directly facing angle A, c is directly facing angle C, and so on)

a/SinA = c/SinC

a/Sin 42 = 5/Sin 74

By cross multiplication we now have

a (Sin 74) = 5 (Sin 42)

Divide both sides of the equation by Sin 74 and we now arrive at

a = 5 (Sin 42)/Sin 74

a = 5 (0.6691)/0.9613

a = 3.3455/0.9613

a = 3.4802

{rounded to the nearest tenth of a mile, a equals 3.5}

Therefore the distance from tower B to the fire is approximately 3.5 miles

You buy x bottles of soda for $1.50 using a gift card that you got as a reward for getting good grades
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

0\leq x \leq 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is  f(x)=15-1.50x  where x is the number of bottles of soda.

The domain means the set of "allowed" x values.

Also, f(x) means the amount of money left, which cannot be less than 0. So we put 0 into f(x) and solve for x:

f(x)=15-1.5x\\0=15-1.5x\\1.5x=15\\x=\frac{15}{1.50}\\x=10

This means the highest number of bottles you can buy is 10. So the domain is anything from 0 to 10. <em>You can buy 0 until highest 10 bottles. Hence the domain is </em>

0\leq x \leq 10
