So basically 3cm is the model and 2 m is the actual size. So the hood is 1m so it is half of 2m which means the answer to the question is 1.5cm
Answer: Tom's solution is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you add 3/6 + 1/2 it equals ?.
3 + 1 = ?
6 + 2 = ?
We must have common denominators to do this problem.
So we must have 6 as our common denominator.
So 2 x 3 = 6. But we have to do the same to the Numerator.
So 1 x 3 = 3.
Now our problem is 3/6 + 3/6 = ?
3 + 3 = 6/6. Or 1
1 does not equal 4/12 or 1/3. So it makes it Incorrect.
What you should say:
Tom is incorrect, it is because 3/6 + 1/2 = 1, 1 does not equal 4/12 or 1/3. So, it makes it reasonable for the correct answer to be Incorrect
If we are to connect both tips of the cliff to the approaching ship, we form a right triangle. The height of the cliff is the opposite side of the angle of depression. The trigonometric function that would allow us to solve for the distance is tangent.
tan 18.2° = opposite /adjacent = 426 ft/ x ft
The value of x from the equation is 1295.68 ft
Thus, the answer is the second choice.
5x10^-2 I believe is your answer
