Answer:

-\frac{3}{4}  meters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the answer choices, we basically need to find which of them is between   -\frac{1}{2}  and  -1\frac{2}{3}

<em>Converting all of them to decimals would make it really easier:</em>

<em />

<em>So we need to find number between -0.5  and -1.67</em>

<em />

<em>Answer choice A is -2.33</em>

<em>Answer choice B is  -0.75</em>

<em>Answer choice C is  -0.25</em>

<em>Answer chioce D is  -1.83</em>

<em />

<em>So which number, from the choices, is between -0.5 & -1.67?</em>

Clearly, it is -0.75, or,  -\frac{3}{4}  meters

Vic is standing on the ground at a point directly south of the base of the CN Tower and can see the top when looking at an angle
Sindrei [870]

The angle of elevation of 61° and 72° with the height of the tower being 553.3 m. gives Vic's distance from Dan as approximately 356 meters.

<h3>How can the distance between Vic and Dan be calculated?</h3>

Location of Vic relative to the tower = South

Vic's sight angle of elevation to the top of the tower = 61°

Dan's location with respect to the tower = West

Dan's angle of elevation in order to see the top of the tower = 72°

Height of the tower = 553.3m

tan( \theta) =  \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

tan( 61 ^{ \circ}) =  \frac{553.3}{ Vic' s\: distance \: to \: tower}

distance  =  \frac{553.3}{tan ( {61}^{ \circ} )}  = 306.7

  • Vic's distance from the tower ≈ 306.7 m

Similarly, we have;

Dan's distance  =  \frac{553.3}{tan ( {72}^{ \circ} )}  = 179.8

  • Dan's distance from the tower ≈ 179.8 m

Given that Vic and Dan are at right angles relative to the tower (Vic is on the south of the tower while Dan is at the west), by Pythagorean theorem, the distance between Vic and Dan <em>d </em>is found as follows;

  • d = √(306.7² + 179.8²) ≈ 356

Therefore;

  • Vic is approximately 356 meters from Dan

A ball is thrown into the air with a velocity of 34 ft/s. It's height in feet after t seconds is given by y=34t-26(t)^2. Find th
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The average velocity of the ball at the given time interval is -122.3 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

velocity of the ball, v = 34 ft/s

height of the ball, y = 34t - 26t²

initial time, t₀ = 3 seconds

final time, t = 3 + 0.01 = 3.01 seconds

At t = 3 s

y(3) = 34(3) - 26(3)² = -132

The average velocity of the ball in ft/s is given as;

V_{avg} = \frac{y(3.01)-y(3)}{3.01 -3}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{34(3.01)-26(3.01)^2-y(3)}{3.01 -3}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{-133.223-y(3)}{0.01}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{-133.223-(-132)}{0.01}\\\\V_{avg} =\frac{-1.223}{0.01}\\\\V_{avg} = -122.3 \ ft/s

Therefore, the average velocity of the ball at the given time interval is -122.3 ft/s
