Answer:
[ext]T(x) = 2C / Speed[/ext]
Step-by-step explanation:
[ext]Time taken for the Ranger to get to the car = Sum total time taken to travel in the forest and on the road[/ext]
Since [ext]distance of the Ranger to the car = C[/ext]
[ext]Time taken = distance/speed[/ext]
[ext]Total Time taken T(x) = 2 * C / speed[/ext]
T(x) = 2C / speed
Answer: Width = 24 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let W represent the width of the rectangular sign.
The length of a rectangular sign is 6 inches more than half its width. It means that the length of the rectangular sign would be
W/2 + 6
The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as
Area = length × width
The area of the sign is 432 square inches. Therefore, the equation for the area of this sign would be
W(W/2 + 6) = 432
W²/2 + 6W = 432
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 2, it becomes
W² + 12W = 864
W² + 12W - 864 = 0
W² + 36W - 24W - 864 = 0
W(W + 36) - 24(W + 36) = 0
W - 24 = 0 or W + 36 = 0
W = 24 or W = - 36
Since W cannot be negative, then
W = 24
Okay, I think I understand this. Our first step is to solve how long the string is after he used some of it to tie the package. I have a feeling we have to subtract 7/8 - 1/5. Find a least common multiple (in this case, it's 40) and our new fractions are 35/40 and 8/45. Subtract:
35/40 - 8/40 = 27/40.
I don't think this can be simplified down any further as they do not have any common factors. So with that in mind, let's divide 27/40 with 5/1 (5/1 is basically 5 wholes but in fraction version)
When dividing fractions, you want to use the KCF technique (my old math teacher taught me this). Keep the first fraction the same (in this case, 27/40), change the sign from multiplication to division, and flip 5/1 to get it's reciprocal, 1/5. The equation will look like this:
27/40 * 1/5 = 27/200
So each piece is about 27/200 m in length (or 0.135 m in length).
If this is wrong, please let me know, but this is what I got out of this question. I hope this helped you :)
You don't even need the picture to solve this one.
You said that h = 5 cot(Θ) , and you said that Θ is 30 degrees.
All you need now is to find the cotangent of Θ, plop that into the equation,
and the solution practically jumps off the paper into your lap.
To find the cotangent of 30 degrees, you can use a calculator, look it up
in a book, read it off of a slide rule if you have one, draw a picture of a
30-60-90 right triangle etc. You'll find that the cotangent of 30 degrees
is √3 . That's about 1.732 .
So your equation is h = 5 (1.732) = <em>8.66 </em>(rounded)
Apparently, somebody gave you the equation, and asked you to find 'h'.
Once you had the equation, you didn't even need to know that 'h' has
anything to do with a triangle.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the cos square identity in trigonometry i.e., cos2ϴ = 1 – sin2 ϴ, we can evaluate the exact value of cos(33 ). For calculating the exact value of cos(∏/6), we have to substitute the value of sin(30°) in the same formula.
cos(30°) = √1 – sin230°
The value of sin30° is 1/2 (Trigonometric Ratios)
cos(30°) = √1 – (1/2)2
cos(30°) = √1 – (1/4)
cos(30°) = √(1 * 4 – 1)/4
cos(30°) = √(4 – 1)/4
cos(30°) = √3/4
Therefore, cos(30°) = √3/2
