A hot air balloon is flying above Groveburg. To the left side of the balloon, the balloonist measure the angle of depression to

the Groveburg soccer fields to be 20° 15'. To the right side of the balloon, the balloonist measures the angle of depression to the high school football field to be 62° 30'. The distance between the two athletic complexes is 4 miles.
What is the distance from the balloon to the football field?

Answer:

The answer is 1.4 miles ⇒ answer (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Let the balloon is at the vertex A, and the soccer fields

  at vertex B and the football field at vertex C

∴ m∠B = 20° 15' = 20.25°

∴ m∠C = 62° 30' = 62.5°

∴ m∠A = 180 - 20.25 - 62.5 = 97.25°

∵ BC = 4 miles

* By using the sin Rule:

∵ AC/sin(B) = BC/sin(A)

∴ AC = (BC)(sinB)/sin(A)

∴ AC = [4 × sin(20.25)] ÷ sin(97.25) = 1.395 ≅ 1.4 miles

∴ The distance from the balloon to the football filed = 1.4 miles

Explain truth tables and how they work​
lions [1.4K]

A truth table is a way of organizing information to list out all possible scenarios. We title the first column p for proposition. In the second column we apply the operator to p, in this case it's ~p (read: not p). So as you can see if our premise begins as True and we negate it, we obtain False, and vice versa.

A savings account with compounded interest can be modeled by which type of graph
Leona [35]

Answer: The answer is (C) Exponential.

Step-by-step explanation: We are to select out of the given options the type of graph that a savings account with compounded interest be modelled.

We know that compounding gives more interest because we are earning interest on interest, and not just on the principal.

The formula foe compound interest is given by

C.I.=P(1+\dfrac{r}{100})^n, where, 'P' is the principal, r is the rate of interest and 'n' is the number of years.

Therefore, we can see that the function is of exponential type.

If we draw the graph of compound interest earned every year with a particular rate of interest is of exponential type.

So, the correct option is (C) Exponential.

The area of a rectangle is square units. Factor this expression. Given your answer in part A, describe what you can conclude abo
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The factored area of the rectangle=2(2w-5)

Area of a rectangle=length×width

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle is 4w - 10 square units

We have to factor the expression

Area of rectangle = 4w - 10

common factor=2

Area of rectangle = 2(2w - 5)

Thus the given expression is factored

Area of a rectangle=length × width

Area of the rectangle=2×(2w-5)

Thus, it is safe to say

The length=2 or (2w-5)

The width=(2w-5) or 2
