We have a right triangle. We know the hypotenuse (75 ft) and an angle of 35°. We need to find the opposite leg to the angle of 35° (h). The trigonometric function that relates the opposite leg to an angle with the hypotenuse is sine:
sin 35° = (Opposite leg to 35°) / hypotenuse
sin 35° = h/(75 ft)
Solving for h:
(75 ft) sin 35°=h
h=75 sin 35° ft
h=75 (0.573576436) ft
h=43.01823270 ft
h=43 ft
Answer: T<span>he bottom of the balloon is 43 ft from the ground</span>
Answer:
D) 11
Step-by-step explanation:
If you start at five and count back on each little x
than you should come up with 11
0=3
1=1
2=2
3=4
4=1
3+1+2+4+1=11
You do This because you need to find how many has fewer so you don't count 5
First let's reduce the feet to miles
there are 5280 feet in a mile therefore
26400 feet=5 miles
31680 feet=6 miles
Jet A(the first jet) descends 5 miles in 96 miles
Jet B(the second jet) descends 6 miles in 120 miles
We can compare these as fractions to see which is steeper. This can be viewed as slope and the origin (0,0) is the airport.
slope: 6/120=?=5/96
1/20=?=5/96
Now we know that 5/100 =1/20 so 5/96 must be bigger than 5/100 because you are dividing by a smaller number.
so 1/20<5/96
So Jet B is descending steeper than Jet A.
As for linear model, I don't exactly know what your teacher means but I think I actually used the linear model when I'm thinking of steepness as slope in the coordinate plane, I will include a picture.
In this extremely zoomed out graph, you can see the blue line is just slighly higher than the red line(slope as in explanation is way easier to tell) this could be seen as the linear model) :) Hope it helped!
