Answer:

$Height\approx 1.35\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation $=25\textdegree$

It is $3.2\ miles$ away from the point.

If we imagine a right triangle having an angle $25\textdegree$ .

Hypotenuse $=3.2$ , Opposite=Height from sea level $(h)$

$\sin 25=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\\sin 25=\frac{h}{3.2}\\\\h=3.2\times \sin 25\\\\h=3.2\times 0.4226\\\\h=1.3524\approx 1.35\ miles$

Use the Shell Method to find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating region under the graph of f(x)=x^2+2 for 0≤x≤5 about x

Irina18 [472]

For each x in the interval 0 ≤ x ≤ 5, the shell at that point has

• radius = 5 - x, which is the distance from x to x = 5

• height = x ² + 2

• thickness = dx

and hence contributes a volume of 2π (5 - x) (x ² + 2) dx.

Taking infinitely many of these shells and summing their volumes (i.e. integrating) gives the volume of the region:

$\displaystyle 2\pi \int_0^5 (5-x)(x^2+2)\,\mathrm dx=2\pi\int_0^5 (10-2x+5x^2-x^3)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{\frac{925\pi}6}$

What is 7•8+1•40. Explain your answer

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the order of operations to solve the equation

7×8+1×40

multiplication before addition, so we do this first:

7×8=56

We change the equation to this:

56+1×40

Then we multiply:

1×40=40

We change the equation to this:

56+40

Then we add to solve:

56+40=96
