Answer:
8 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount in the glass after m minutes can be described by ...
a = 4 + 3/2m
We want to find m when a=16, so ...
16 = 4 + 3/2m
12 = 3/2m . . . . . subtract 4
8 = m . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/3
It will take 8 minutes to fill the glass.
Answer:
A. Plane B because it was 9.33 miles away
B. 48 units
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Since the airplanes fly at an angle to the runway, their direction forms a triangle with the runway with their height above the ground as the opposite of the angle and their distance from the airport as the hypotenuse.
So for airplane A with 44° angle of departure,
sin44° = y/h where y = height above the ground and h = distance from airport
So h = y/sin44° = 6/sin44° = 8.64 miles
So for airplane B with 40° angle of departure,
sin40° = y/H where y = height above the ground and H = distance from airport
So H = y/sin40° = 6/sin40° = 9.33 miles
Since airplane B is at 9.33 miles away from the airport whereas airplane A is 8.64 miles from the airport, airplane B is farther away.
B. We know that scale factor = new size/original size
Our scale factor = 4 and original size = 12 units. So,
new size = scale factor original size = 4 × 12 = 48 units.
