the picture below shows the path that puppy Liz is running. The electrical post is 40 feet tall. Puppy liz usually starts at the

bench post and runs until she gets to the fire hydrant, rest, and then she runs back to the bench. How far does puppy Liz run to get to the fire hydrant?

Puppy Liz has to run approx 70ft to get to fire hydrant from the bench post.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let bench post be point A, fire hydrant be B and electrical post bottom be C and top be O.

We are given CO = 40ft

and angle BOC = 34°

angle AOC = 34 +23 = 57°

Let AB be y and AC be x

Clearly two right triangles are formed.

We can say,

In triangle BOC,

cos34° = Perpendicular ÷ Base = x÷40 => x = 40cos34°

and In triangle AOC

cos57° = Perpendicular ÷ Base = (x+y)÷40

substituting value of x from first equation to second we get,

40cos57° = 40cos34° + y

y = 40(cos57° - cos34°)

y = 40x1.75

y = 70ft which is the required answer.

Answer:

<h2>The puppy runs 34 feet, approximately.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The problems models two triangles, the right triangle can be solved using trigonometric reasons and the other triangles can solved using law of cosines.

The distance that the puppy is running comprehend a side of the first triangle, however before finding that side, we need to first find the longest side, which is from the top of the electrical post to bench, which comprehend the hypothenuse of the bigger right triangle.

Applying trigonometric reasons, we have

cos57=\frac{40}{x}\\ x=\frac{40}{cos57} \approx 73

This is the longest hypothenuse.

cos34=\frac{40}{y}\\ y=\frac{40}{cos34} \approx 48

This is the common side, which goes from the top of the electric pole to the fire hydrant.

Now we know the common side between triangles and the longest hypothenuse, we use the law of cosines to find the side that comprehend the distance covered by the poppy

d^{2}=x^{2}+y^{2}-2.x.y.cos23\\\\d^{2}=(73)^{2}+(48)^{2}-2(73)(48)cos23\\d=\sqrt{1182} \\d\approx 34

Therefore, the puppy runs 34 feet, approximately.

Answer:

c=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle sum of a triangle is 180°

(19c+16)°+13c°+(17c+17)°=180°

collect the like terms i.e

19c+13c+17c+16+17=180°

49c°+33°=180°

49c°=180°-33°

49c°=147

dividing by 49 both sides

49c/49=147/49

c=3

Whoever checks my work and tell what I did wrong and the right answer will
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe that you only had to do letters F, H, and J. In that case, let's go over each one!

F: For isolatingd_{1}, we need to get rid of the 1/2 first. Let's multiply each side by 2:

2*m = 2*\frac{1}{2}(d_{1}+  d_{2}) \\2m = d_{1}+  d_{2}

After this, we just subtract d_{2} from each side to get d_{1}=2m- d_{2}. Dark Blue is correct! Let's now plug in those numbers below:

d_{1}=2(10)- 13 = 20-13=7

G: Let's isolate the vw^2 on one side by subtracting y from each side:

vw^{2} +y-y=x-y\\vw^{2}=x-y

Let's now divide each side by v, then put each side under a square root to get our final answer:

\frac{vw^2}{v} = \frac{x-y}{v}\\  w^2 =  \frac{x-y}{v}\\\sqrt{w^2} = \sqrt{\frac{x-y}{v}} \\w=\sqrt{\frac{x-y}{v}}

Orange is correct! Again, let's solve the problem underneath:

w=w=\sqrt{\frac{38-(-7)}{5}} = \sqrt{\frac{38+7}{5}} = \sqrt{\frac{45}{5}}=\sqrt{9}=3

H: This one has some stuff that we haven't worked with quite yet (like terms), but our approach is the same: isolate c on one side of the equation.

2a-2a+3c=17a-2a+21\\3c = 15a+21\\\frac{3c}{3} = \frac{15a+21}{3}\\c = \frac{15a}{3}+ \frac{21}{3} \\c = 5a+7

Purple is correct! Let's solve the problem:

c = 5(\frac{16}{5})+7 = 16+7 = 23

A store has been selling 300 Blu-ray disc players a week at $600 each. A market survey indicates that for each $40 rebate offere
timurjin [86]

Answer:

75 $

Step-by-step explanation:

According to problem statement p(300) = 600

And we know that with a rebate of 40 $, numbers of units sold will increase by 80 then if x is number of units sold, the increase in units is

(  x  - 300 )  , and the price decrease

(1/80)*40  =  0,5

Then the demand function is:

D(x)  =  600  - 0,5* ( x - 300 )  (1)

And revenue function is:

R(x) =  x * (D(x)   ⇒   R(x) =  x* [  600  - 0,5* ( x - 300 )]

R(x) = 600*x  - 0,5*x * ( x - 300 )

R(x) = 600*x - 0,5*x² - 150*x

R(x) = 450*x  - (1/2)*x²

Now taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get

R´(x) =  450  - x

R´(x) =  0       ⇒   450  - x = 0

x = 450 units

We can observe that for   0 < x  < 450  R(x) > 0 then R(x) has a maximum for x = 450

Plugging this value in demand equation, we get the rebate for maximize revenue

D(450)  =  600  - 0,5* ( x - 300 )

D(450)  =  600 - 225 + 150

D(450)  =

D(450)  =  600 - 0,5*( 150)

D(450)  =  600 - 75

D(450)  = 525

And the rebate must be

600 - 525  = 75 $
