You can draw a diagram of the situation, representing it by a right triuangle.
In the right triangle the hypotenuse is the distance indicated by the radio signal, 1503 m, and the angle is 41°.
The opposed leg to 41° is the height of the ballon.
Then you can use the sine trigonometric function.
sine (41°) = opposed leg / hypotenuse = x / 1503 m => x = 1503m * sine(41°)
=> x = 986m.
Answer: 986m
Answer:
13/4 * 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, it says that her coach wants her to run 2 1/2 TIMES the original 3/4 she had ran. Therefore, you would want to make the fractions into improper fractions, and then multiply, which is how you would get 13/4 * 5/2.
Answer:
1. Yes the parentheses are necessary. To find a fourth of her regular hours you must find the total amount she works during her regular hours.
2. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
(For the second question)
4+8= 12
12 × ½ = 12 ÷ 2
12÷2 = 6
Answer:
3/11
3:11
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: a. 3.4t (miles)
b. 2.125 miles
c. t = 1.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
A) We will use the relation:
Distance = Speed × Time
Distance= 3.4 × t
= 3.4t (miles)
B) If t= 5/8
Distance d= 3.4 × 5/8
= 3.4 × 0.625
= 2.125 miles.
C) If the distance d= 5.44,
Time will be:
d= 3.4t, and we know that d=5.44
Therefore, 5.44 = 3.4t
t = 5.44/3.4
t = 1.6 hours
