Answer:
5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of this like a triangle. From the bottom of the tower, to the top of the tower, to the point 3 miles away, and back to the bottom of the tower.
So we already have 2 side lengths. The height of the tower, 3 miles, and the base, 4 miles. In order to find the 3rd length, the distance from the top of the tower to the point 4 miles away from the bottom, we need to apply the formula A squared + B squared = C squared.
We have A and B, (3 and 4) and we need C.
A squared (3 squared) is 9
B squared (4 squared) is 16
so 9 + 16 = C squared
9 + 16 = 25
C squared = 25
square root of 25 is 5
C = 5
The distance from the top of the tower to the point 4 miles away is 5.
Answer:
125 Dolphins
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of dolphins varied linearly with the number of fish.
The number of dolphins = D
The number of fish = F
Hence:
D ∝ F
D = kF
When 400 fish were present 250 dolphins appeared
Solving for k
250 = 400k...... Equation 1
Also
when 300 fish were present, 200 dolphins appeared.
200 = 300k...... Equation 2
So: we find k = Constant of Proportionality
250 = 400k...... Equation 1
200 = 300k...... Equation 2
We Subtract Equation 2 from Equation 1
50 = 100k
k = 50/100
k = 1/2
How many dolphins would appear if 250 fish were present?
D = kF
D = 1/2 × 250
D = 125 Dolphins
