Mr. Burnam decided to go hot air ballooning for his fortieth birthday. He launches from 6 feet above ground and then ascends 12

Answer:

  2 feet below the ground level at the place where he started.

Step-by-step explanation:

After he adds 12 feet of elevation to the 6 feet above ground level where he launched, Mr Burnam is 6+12 = 18 feet above the ground level where he launched.

If he descends 20 feet, he will be 18 -20 = -2 feet above the ground level where he launched. That is, he is 2 feet below the ground level where he launched. We hope the ground slopes downward somewhat so Mr Burnam is not buried in the ground at that point.

<h3>Answer is 1.5 square meters</h3>

=================================================

Work Shown:

The portion of the fabric that is laying across the ground is 2 meters. The portion of the fabric from the ground to the highest point (along the fabric's edge) is 1.5 meters, half of that is 0.75 meters and this is the length of the shadow. We can see this by forming a 30-60-90 triangle. The hypotenuse is 1.5 meters, the short leg is 0.75 meters. The short leg is always half of the hypotenuse of any 30-60-90 triangle, and the short leg is opposite the 30 degree angle.

So this shadow has length of 2 meters and 0.75 meters, making its area be 0.75*2 = 1.5 square meters when the sun is directly overhead at 12 noon

Answer:

6: 12

7: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

You do the last (y) term given [18] minus the first (y) term [10] given divided by how many terms it takes to get from the last (y) term given minus the first (y) term given [4]. So the equation looks like this:

(18 - 10)/4= 8/4 = 2
