An observer (O) spots a plane (P) taking off from a local airport and flying at a 33° angle

Mathematics
1 answer:
Oliga [24]2 years ago

Answer: 10,779 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

From the sketch attached ;

∠POT is the Angle of elevation = 33°

Height of tower = 7000 Feets

Taking the triangle POT

WHERE PT = 7000 Feets (Opposite)

Distance (d) between the bird and plane is the ADJACENT,

NOTE: (BP = OT = d)

Taking the tangent of the angle of elevation;

Tan Θ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan 33° = 7000 / d

Cross multiply

d × 0.6494075 = 7000

d = 7000 / 0.6494075

d = 10779.054 = 10,779 feets

How much should you put in an investment paying a simple interest rate of​ 5% if you needed​ $4000 in eighteen​ mont
Eddi Din [679]

now, there are 12 months in a year, so 18 months is really 18/12 of a year, thus

~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill & \$4000\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\\ r=rate\to 5\%\to \frac{5}{100}\dotfill &0.05\\ t=years\to \frac{18}{12}\dotfill &\frac{3}{2} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 4000=P[1+(0.05)(\frac{3}{2})]\implies 4000=P(1.075) \\\\\\ \cfrac{4000}{1.075}=P\implies 3720.93\approx P

Say that you (or your parents) are purchasing a used car for $19,850. The sales tax is 7.5%, the down payment is $1,000.00, and
IgorLugansk [536]
We are NOT told  1) the finance charge and 2) the amount of time
<span> <span> 19,850.00 <span> Car Price
+1,488.75 Sales Tax </span> <span>
</span><span> -1,000.00 Down Payment
</span> 20,338.75 </span> </span> This is the amount being financed

Using a loan calculator http://www.1728.org/calcloan.htm
We see that if the loan is for 9.382% and it is for 5 years,
Then the monthly payment is $425.98
We will make 60 (12 months * 5) monthly payments resulting in a total loan cost of 425.98 * 60 =
  <span> <span> 25,558.80 </span> </span> Total Loan Cost
-20,338.75  Money Being Financed

   5,220.05  Five Year's Interest
********************************************************************
THIS ISN'T EXACTLY RIGHT - SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM
So, 5,220.05 / 60 = Interest Paid each month.
= $87.00

So,
425.98
 -87.00
<span> <span> 338.98 </span> </span> Each month goes toward the principal.
******************************************************************************************
Although, the monthly payment remains exactly the same each month, the amount going toward interest and the amount going to equity (what you own), changes drastically each month.
See the mortgage calculator
http://www.1728.org/mortmnts.htm

So, your first payment, of 452.98 pays for $159.02 in interest and $266.95 in principal.

You reach into the jar and randomly select a jelly bean, then select another without putting the first jelly bean back. What is the probability that you draw two red jelly beans? This is Dependent because you didnt put the other jelly bean in thus changing the total nmber of jelly beans.
