Answer: There were 10 students in the class on the first day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of students of the first day.
Given: A college writing seminar increased its size by 50 percent from the first to the second day.
i.e. Number of students on second day = (Number of students on first day)+(50% of Number of students on first day)
= x +50% of x
= x+0.50x
= (1.50)x
=1.50x
Since, it is given that the total number of students in the seminar on the second day was 15.
i.e.
Hence, there were 10 students in the class on the first day.
Answer:
The angle must be at 3.81°
Step-by-step explanation:
The horizontal distance of the shooting range is 60 yards
The height of the target is 12ft.
We'll have to convert the value of the height from ft to yards.
1 yards = 3 foot
X yards = 12ft
X = 4yards.
The height of the target is 4 yards.
Now, to find the angle at which the shooter makes with the zenith of the target(height), we'll have to use use SOHCAHTOA
To know which of the rules we'll follow, a pictorial illustration of the values will help
(See attached document for better illustration).
From the diagram, we can see we have values at both opposite and adjacent.
Opposite = 4
Adjacent = 60
Hence we can use Tanθ = opposite/ adjacent
Tanθ = 4 / 60
Tanθ = 0.067
θ = Tan⁻0.067
θ = 3.81°
The angle at which the rifle must be set to hit the target is 3.81°
