Given  that the two watchtowers spotted fire in the distance and watch tower 2 was 27 miles from the fire. Assuming that the fire is in the middle of both watch towers, then the distance between the two watch towers will be given by:
distance=[distance of fire from watch tower 1]+[distance of fire from watch tower 2]
=27+27
=53 miles

I'm stuck on this question, any ideas? thanks
True [87]

Answer:

\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\frac{1}{6+x}-\frac{1}{6}}{x}=-1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the limit:

\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\frac{1}{6+x}-\frac{1}{6}}{x}

Let's remove the fractions in the denominator by multiplying both layers by (6+x)(6). So:

\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\frac{1}{6+x}-\frac{1}{6}}{x}\cdot (\frac{(6+x)(6)}{(6+x)(6)})

Distribute:

=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{(6)-(6+x)}{x(6+x)(6)}

Simplify the numerator:

=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{6-6-x}{x(6+x)(6)}\\=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{-x}{x(6+x)(6)}

Both the numerator and the denominator have an x. Cancel:

=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{-1}{(6+x)(6)}

Direct substitution:

= \frac{-1}{(6+0)(6)}

Simplify:

=-1/36

And that's our answer.

And we're done!

ZABD and ZDBC are supplementary angles.
Mila [183]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

<u>As above angles are supplementary</u>,

  • x + 120° = 180°
  • x = 180° - 120°
  • x = 60°

<u>Hence, value of x is 60°</u>.

What is the answer to a,b, and c? Thanks!
Katarina [22]

The area of a triangle can be calculated as half the product of base length and height. We want the area to be no greater than 10 in².

a) (1/2)(4)(2x-3) ≤ 10

b) 4x -6 ≤ 10 . . . . . simplify

... 4x ≤ 16 . . . . . . . .add 6

... x ≤ 4 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

c) The maximum value of (2x -3) in is (2·4 -3) in = 5 in.

The triangle should be no more than 5 in high to have an area less than 10 in².

Sam bought a soda and a bag of chips for $3. If the soda cost $1.75, how much was the bag of chips?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag of chips is worth the same as the entire purchase minus the soda.

Therefore the chips are worth 3 - 1.75 = 1.25
