Answer:
x = 24.5
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two similar triangles. In similar triangles the sides are in proportion.
Let's name big triangle as triangle 1 and small triangle as triangle 2.
The sides of the big triangle:
27 as base and the longest side (x + 7)
The sides of the small triangle:
base = 27 - 6 = 21
longest side = x
We need to find the value of x using proportion.
27/21 = (x + 7)/ x
By cross multiplying, we get
27(x) = 21(x + 7)
27x = 21x + 147
27x - 21x = 147
6x = 147
Dividing both sides by 6, we get
x = 147/6
x = 24.5
The value of x = 24.5
Hope you will understand the concept.
Thank you.
Answer:
29. See table below
30. See attached graph
31. The slope is m= 0.10
The slope represent the cost for every additional call minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost is $0.5 first minute and $0.10 for any additional minutes
If c is the total cost of a call that last t minutes then;
c= 0.10t + 0.5-----where t is the time the call lasted
29. Use the equation above to create the table as;
t {x} c{y}
1 0.6
2 0.7
3 0.8
4 0.9
5 1.0
6 1.1
The graph of this plot is as attached , where the coordinates are
{1,0.6} , {2,0.7} ,{3,0.8} ,{4,0.9} ,{5,1.0}, {6,1.1}
The slope can be found using the formula;
m=Δy/Δx
m= 1.1 - 0.6 / 6-1
m= 0.5 / 5 = 0.10
The slope represent the cost for every additional call minute.
X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B
