Answer:

182 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that describes the motion of the hot air ballon is:

h(t) = h_0 - vt

where:

h_0 is the initial altitude

v is the rate of descend of the balloon

t is the time

The balloon starts from a height of

h_0 = 362 ft

and has a rate of descend of

v=15 ft/min

Therefore, after time

t = 12 min

Its altitude will be

h(12)=362 - (15)(12)=182 ft

Given the general form of the sinusoidal function, y = AsinB(x - C) + D, match the following items.
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

\Delta y = A (Amplitude) (Correct answer: 1)

\omega = B (Angular frequency) (Correct answer: 2)

x_{o} = C (Phase shift) (Correct answer: 3)

y_{o} = D (Vertical shift) (Correct answer: 4)

\frac{2\pi}{\omega} = \frac{2\pi}{B} (Period) (Correct answer: 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a sinusoidal function is represented by the following characteristics:

y = \Delta y \cdot \sin \omega\cdot (x- x_{o}) + y_{o} (1)

Where:

\Delta y - Amplitude.

\omega - Angular frequency.

x_{o} - Phase shift.

y_{o} - Vertical shift.

x - Independent variable.

y - Dependent variable.

In addition, we know that the period associated with the sinusoidal function (T) is:

T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}

By direct comparison, we get the following conclusions:

\Delta y = A (Amplitude) (Correct answer: 1)

\omega = B (Angular frequency) (Correct answer: 2)

x_{o} = C (Phase shift) (Correct answer: 3)

y_{o} = D (Vertical shift) (Correct answer: 4)

\frac{2\pi}{\omega} = \frac{2\pi}{B} (Period) (Correct answer: 5)
