Answer: 9 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

average length of a car = 16feet

speed of the driver = 100miles/hr

Solution:

First we would need to convert the Speed of the car from miles/hr to Feet/secs.

To do this we know that 1mile/hr = 1.467 feet/secs

= 100m/hr * 1.467

= 146.7Feet/secs.

So now the number of cars between him would be

= 146.7Feet/secs / 16

= 9.17

approximately there should be 9 cars between you.

Benjamin is trying to find the height of a radio antenna on the roof of a local building.
xz_007 [3.2K]

The height of the antenna on the roof of the local building is approximately 8 meters.

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>Properties of a right angle triangle:</h3>
  • One of its angles is equals to 90 degrees
  • The sides of the triangles can be calculated using Pythagoras theorem.

Therefore, let's find the height of the building and the radio antenna from the eye point.

Using trigonometric ratios,

tan 40° = opposite / adjacent

tan 40° = x / 25

where

x = the height of the building and the radio antenna from the eye point.

x = 25 tan 40

x = 25 × 0.83909963117

x = 20.9774907794 meters

Let's find the height of the building from his eye point.

tan 28° = y / 25

where

y = height of the building from his eye point

y = 25 × tan 28°

y = 25 × 0.53170943166

y = 13.2927357915 meters

Height of the antenna = 20.9774907794 - 13.2927357915 = 7.68475498786

Height of the antenna ≈ 8 meters

Find the coordinates of the midpoint between point A(18, -6) and the origin.
Sedbober [7]
Mid point b/w (18,-6),(0,0)
X = 0+18/2 = 9
y = 0-6/2 = -3
thus mid point is (9,-3)

A gardener brought 5 rabbits, after 2 months rabbits became 10, and after 4 months they became 20. If the growth continues on th
Natali [406]

Answer:

<em>The amount of rabbit after 1 year will be </em><em>320</em><em>.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

A gardener brought 5 rabbits, after 2 months rabbits became 10.

The growth continues on the same ratio.

This represents a geometric sequence with 1st term as 5 and common ratio as 2.

As we have to find the amount of rabbit after 1 year, so the we have to find \dfrac{12}{2}+1=6+1=7th term. As the time difference between each counting is 2 months, so we divided 1 year or 12 months of time by 2.

nth term in a G.P is,

T_n = ar^{n-1}

Putting the values,

T_7 = 5\times (2)^{7-1}=5\times 2^6=320
