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 man flies a kite at a height of 15 ft. The wind is carrying the kite horizontally from the man at a rate of 5 ft./s. How fast
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

4.4 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Height = 15ft

Rate= 5 ft/s

Distance from the man to the kite= 32ft

dh/dt = 5 ft/s

h = √32^2 - 15^2

h = √ 1025 - 225

h = √800

h = 28.28ft

D = √15^2 + h^2

dD/dt = 1/2(15^2 + h^2)^-1/2 (2h) dh/dt

= h(225 + h^2)^-1/2 dh/dt

= (h / √225 + h^2)5

= (28.28 / √225 + 28.28^2)5

= (28.28 / √1024.7584)5

= (28.28/32)5

= 0.88*5

= 4.4 ft/s

Solve the equation. (Absolute Value)<br><br> | -6x | 54
Natali5045456 [20]

Are you are saying that the absolute value of negative six times x equals 54? If you are, then the answer is x equals positive or negative 9. To solve, set up two equations, because it is an absolute value question. In the first equation, write -6x=54. Divide by -6 to get -9. That is just one of two answers. In the second equation, write 6x=54. Divide 54 by 6 to get positive 9. Your answer is positive and negative 9.

One brand of coffee is packaged in cylinders where the height is equal to the radius, r. The volume of the package, in cubic cen
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

<h2>C(V(r)) = 3.2πr3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is a composition of function defined by C(V(r)), now we have the functions V(r)= \pi r^{3} and C(V)=3.2V, where the first depends on the radius, and the second dependes on the volume, that means, to find the number of ounce of coffe, we need to determine the volume of the cylinder, that's why we have to replace the volume function inside the ounces function,

C(V(r))=3.2(\pi r^{3} )

Therefore, the right answer is the last choice.
