Since the problem is not telling us the height of Silvio, we are going to assume it is not relevant for our calculations.
Let
the altitude of the incoming plane. We know for our problem that the distance between Silvio and the tower is 3 miles, Also we know that the angle of elevation to the plane is 40°. With this information we can create a triangle as shown in the figure. We need a function that relates the angle of elevation with its opposite and adjacent sides, that function is tangent.
We can conclude that we should use the trig function tangent to model this situation; also, we can conclude that the equation that describes this situation is
.
I think that’s the answer
Let
x---------------> distance from people living to the city center
we Know that
Zone 1 covers people living within three miles of the city center
Zone 1 ------------> [x < 3 miles]
Zone 2 covers those between three and seven miles from the center
Zone 2 ------------> [ 3 <= x < = 7 miles]
Zone 3 covers those over seven miles from the center
Zone 3 ------------> [ x > 7 miles]
<span>calculate the distance between two points to find the value of x

case A) point (0,0) point (3,4)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(4-0)² +(3-0)²]------> √[16+9]
x=√25-------------> x=5 miles
the answer Part A)
people living in (3,4)
x=5 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < =x <= 7 miles]
case B) point (0,0) point (6,5)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(5-0)² +(6-0)²]------> √[25+36]
x=√61-------------> x=7.81 miles
the answer Part B)
people living in (6,5)
x=7.81 miles -------------> covers Zone 3 [ x > 7 miles]
case C) point (0,0) point (1,2)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(2-0)² +(1-0)²]------> √[4+1]
x=√5-------------> x=2.23 miles
the answer Part C)
people living in (1,2)
x=2.23 miles -------------> covers Zone 1 [ x < 3 miles]
case D) point (0,0) point (0,3)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(3-0)² +(0-0)²]------> √[9]
x=√9-------------> x=3 miles
the answer Part D)
people living in (0,3)
x=3 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < =x <= 7 miles]
case E) point (0,0) point (1,6)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(6-0)² +(1-0)²]------> √[36+1]
x=√37-------------> x=6.08 miles
the answer Part E)
people living in (1,6)
x=6.08 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < = x <= 7 miles]
Answer:
x = 6
y = 24
z = there is no z?
Step-by-step explanation:
All angles of a polygon add up to 360 degrees
The 2 parellel lines on top and bottom mean that there are 2 right angles on the left side
3y + 18 = 90
3y = 72
y = 24
15x + 30 + 10x = 180
25x = 150
x = 6
