Nancy and Harry are sliding a stone statue and moving it to a new location in their garden. Nancy is pushing the statue with a f

orce of 120N at a 60° angle to the horizontal and Harry is pulling the statue with a force of 180N at a 40° angle with the horizontal. What is the magnitude of the horizontal force exerted on the statue?

Answer:

197,8879 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnitude of the horizontal force exerted on the statue can be calculated using trigonometric functions.

The question given says that <em><u>Nancy</u></em> is <em><u>pushing</u></em> the statue with a force of<em><u> 120 N at a 60° angle to the horizontal</u></em> and <em><u>Harry</u></em> is <em><u>pulling</u></em> the statue with a force of <u><em>180 N at a 40° angle with the horizontal</em></u>.

With that information can be calculated the horizontal force exerted on the statue by Nancy, the horizontal force exerted on the statue by Harry and, adding that results, the total horizontal magnitude can be calculated.

The cosine function can be used to calculate the horizontal component of the forces exerted by Nancy and Harry, to determine the horizontal component of the force exerted on the statue.

F= (120 N cos 60°) + (180 N x cos 40°)

F= 197,8879 N

shayla is financing a house for $126,750. She has to pay $450 plus 1.15% for a brokerage fee. How much are the mortgage brokerag
ANEK [815]
Answer: $1,907.63

Explanation:

It is stated in the problem that the brokerage fee is $450 plus 1.15% (meaning 1.15% of $126,750). Hence the brokerage fee is computed as follows
  
(Brokerage fee) = $450 + (1.15% of $126,750)
                          = $450 + (0.0115)($126,750) 
                          = $450 + $1,457.625
                          = $1,907.625

Since there is no half cents today, we round-off the brokerage fee to the nearest cent. Hence the brokerage fee is $1,907.63.

Note: In the computation of brokerage fee, we need to change 1.15% to  decimal.

Suppose y varies inversely with x, and y = 25 when x = 1/5. What is the value of y when x = 5 ?
34kurt

Answer:

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies inversely with x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 25 when x = \frac{1}{5} , then

25 = \frac{k}{\frac{1}{5} } = 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )

5 = k

y = \frac{5}{x} ← equation of variation

When x = 5, then

y = \frac{5}{5} = 1
