Answer:

71.60ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

The question above requires us to use find the relationship between the angle and the length of the slide.

To solve this question, it is pertinent to get the diagram correctly so as to get the answer right.

See attached document for better illustration.

From the diagram,

We have the value of the opposite side or the triangle, and the angle of depression.

Using SOHCAHTOA,

Tanθ = opposite / adjacent

θ = 31.66°

Opposite = 46ft

Adjacent = x

Tanθ = opp / adj

Tan31.66 = 46 / x

X = 46 / tan31.66

X = 46 / 0.6166

X = 71.60ft

The height of the slide is 71.60ft

A model airplane is built to a scale of 1 in.:12 ft. If the model plane is 11 inches long, find the length of the actual plane,
torisob [31]

Answer:

132 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale is equal to \frac{1}{12}\ \frac{in}{ft}

That means ---> 1 inch in the model represent 12 feet in the actual

To find the actual dimensions of the airplane, divide the dimensions of the model by the scale

so

11\ in:\frac{1}{12}\ \frac{in}{ft}=11(12)=132\ ft

Answer:

7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model an equation for this problem.

We can write:

F=mt

Where

F is the final temperature (15 degrees we need)

m is the rate of temperature change (2 degrees per hour)

and

t is the time, in hours, it will take (we need to find this)

It is given,

F = 15

m = 2

So, t would be:

F = mt

15 = 2t

t = 15/2 = 7.5

So it will take 7.5 hours

The length of pathway is 10 inches on map.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total distance = 350 miles

According to map,

1 inch = 35 miles

Let, x be the number of inches on map.

Therefore, using proportion;

Inch : mile :: inch : mile

1:35::x:350\\

Product of mean = Product of extreme

35*x=350*1\\35x=350\\

Dividing both sides by 35;

\frac{35x}{35}=\frac{350}{35}\\x=10

The length of pathway is 10 inches on map.
