Answer:

d = 5,35 ft

Step-by-step explanation: See annex

Figure in annex is clear,

sin ∠42⁰ = d / 8

And

sin ∠42⁰ = 0.669

d/8 = 0,669

d = 0,669*8

d = 5,35 ft

Answer:

a ≈ 5.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A guy wire is used to hold a tree firmly to the ground to avoid bending or falling due to earth natural phenomenon like wind.

The guy wire is tied to a stake and attached to the tree. The illustration above forms a right angle triangle. The angle of elevation from the stake in the ground with the tree is 42°.

The tree forms the opposite side of the right angle triangle starting from the point the guy wire was attached down to the base of the tree. The guy wire attached from the tree to the stake forms the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

The height of the connection point on the tree is the height of the tree starting from where the guy wire was tied to the tree to the base. Let us call the height a.

hypotenuse = 8 ft

opposite side(a) = ?

angle of elevation = 42°

Using the SOHCAHTOA principle

sin ∅ = opposite/hypotenuse

sin 42° = a/8

cross multiply

a = 8 sin 42°

a = 8 × 0.6691306064

a = 5.3530448509

a ≈ 5.4 ft

Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes. What would be Jake's running time as a decimal?

VikaD [51]

$\text{Given that Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes.}\\
\\
\text{we need to find this time in decimals. so we will convert 12 minutes into hours}\\
\\
\text{We know that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour. }\\
\\
\text{so in 1 minute there will be}=\frac{1}{60 }\text{ hour}$

$\text{hence in 12 minutes we have}=\frac{1}{60}\times 12=\frac{1}{5}=0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
\text{hence the Jake's running time is}=3\text{hours + 12 minute}\\
\\
=3\text{ hours}+0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
=3.2 \text{ hours}$

Hence, Jake's running time in decimal is: 3.2 hours

Please someone help me on this <33

dangina [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value for a function is the value of y when x=0. For function A, we can see from the table that when x = 0, we have y = 4. For function B, we plug in 0 in our equation and solve: y = 3(0) + 5, or y = 5. So, because function B has a larger value of y when x = 0, function B has the greater initial value because the initial value for Function A is 4 and the initial value for function B is 5.
