Answer:

Joe is 9 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by creating two different equations, one for each fact that we know about their ages.

Say that J is Joe's age

Say that T is Tim's age

Our first equation would then be:

4J + 2T = 50

J - 2 = T

Now that we know that T is J - 2, we can plug that in to the first equation.

4J + 2(J - 2) = 50

We can simplify this equation to solve for J

4J + 2J - 4 = 50

6J = 54

J = 9

Joe is 9 years old

A sailor is 30m above the water in the crow's nest on a sailboat. The sailor encounters an orca surface at an angle of depressio
Natali [406]

Given :

A sailor is 30 m above the water in the crow's nest on a sailboat.

The sailor encounters an orca surface at an angle of depression of 15 degrees.

The crows nest is 20 m horizontally from the bow (front) of the boat.

To Find :

How far in front of the boat is the orca.

Solution :

Let, distance of boat front from the crow's nest is x.

So,

\dfrac{30}{20+x}=tan \ 15^{\circ}\\\\x=\dfrac{30}{tan \ 15^{\circ}}-20\\\\x=111.94-20\\\\x=91.94\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

Plsss hellpppp 14 and 15 plsssssss

Answer:

14). 2nd quadrant

15). 1st quadrant

Step-by-step explanation:

14).Coordinates of a point → J(-8, -12)

    Coordinates of the new point J' after reflection of x-axis will follow the rule,

    (x, y) → (x, -y)

    Coordinates of J' → (-8, 12)

    Therefore, point J' will lie in 2nd quadrant.

15). Coordinates of a point → W(-6, 7)

    Rule for the rotation by 90°clockwise about the origin,

    (x, y) → (y, -x)

    Coordinates of point W → (-6, 7)

    Following this rule,

    W(-6, 7) → W'(7, 6)

    Therefore, point W' will lie in the first quadrant.
