A hot air balloon is flying at and altitude of 2101 feet. If the angle of depression from the pilot in the balloon to a house on

the ground below is 31°, how far is the house from the pilot?

The problem is modelled as right angle triangle, shown in the diagram below

The distance between the pilot and the house is labelled as x

Using the trigonometry ratio of sine
sin(31)= \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
sin(31)= \frac{2010}{x}
x= \frac{2101}{sin(31)} = 4079.3 ft

PLEASE HELP! A positive number is 1/3 of another number. The sum of the numbers is five less than the square of the larger numbe
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The numbers are 1 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = smaller number , y= larger number.

As per given,

x=\dfrac{y}{3}   ...(i)

x+y=y^2-5       ...(ii)

Put value of x from (i) in (ii)

\dfrac{y}{3}+y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac43y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-4y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-9y+5y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y(y-3)+5(y-3)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y-3)(3y+5)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=3 \ \ or\ y=\dfrac{-5}{3}

Since numbers are positive , so y=3 is correct.

And x will be 1  [from (i)]

Hence, the numbers are 1 and 3.

The two way frequency table shows what a group of students did during the summer. Which statement is true related to the table?
ratelena [41]

Answer:

That statement is true which relates to what activity was taken by most of the students of different categories in that particular group during the summers.

Step-by-step explanation:

A two-way frequency table (likewise called a possibility table) is a valuable instrument for inspecting connections between downright factors. The passages in the cells of a two-way table can be frequency checks or relative frequencies (simply like a single direction table). Two-way frequency tables show what number of information focuses fit in every classification.  

Assume you direct a review where you pose every individual two inquiries. When you have wrapped up the overview, you will have two bits of information from every individual. At whatever point you have two bits of information from every individual, you can arrange the information into a two-way frequency table.

Consider the line segment YZ with endpoints Y(-3,-6) and Z(7,4). What is the y-coordinate of the midpoint of line segment YZ?
tatiyna

Given:

Consider the line segment YZ with endpoints Y(-3,-6) and Z(7,4).

To find:

The y-coordinate of the midpoint of line segment YZ.

Solution:

Midpoint formula:

Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

The endpoints of the line segment YZ are Y(-3,-6) and Z(7,4). So, the midpoint of YZ is:

Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{-3+7}{2},\dfrac{-6+4}{2}\right)

Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{4}{2},\dfrac{-2}{2}\right)

Midpoint=\left(2,-1\right)

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the midpoint of line segment YZ is -1.
