Answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Water stations will be placed every 600 meters of a fifteen kilometer race.

i.e. Total length of the race track = 15 kilometers

Since 1 km= 1000 m

Then , Total length of the race track = 15000 kilometers

Distance required to place water stations = 600 meters

Then , the number of water stations will be needed is given by :-

$=\dfrac{15000}{600}=25$

Hence, the number of water stations will be needed = 25

1km=1000metres
15km=15000 metres
15000/600=25
25-1=24 (minus the last one)

hope this helps :)

A plane is flying 3900 m above the ground level. The angle of elevation from the control tower to the plane is

Tcecarenko [31]

The horizontal distance to the control tower is approximately 18506.83m

Data;

distance from the ground = 3900m
angle of elevation = 11.4 degrees
horizontal distance = ?

<h3>Trigonometric Ratio</h3>

To solve this problem, we need to use trigonometric ratio SOHCAHTOA.

In this case, we have the value of opposite and angle and we need to find the adjacent to the angle. The tangent of the angle would be perfect for this.

$tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan11.4 = \frac{3900}{x}\\x = \frac{3900}{tan11.4}\\ x = 18506.83m$

The horizontal distance to the control tower is approximately 18506.83m

A rental car company charges $30 a day plus $0.05 a mile. Which expression could be used to find the cost of renting a car for m

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the company earns $0.05 for every mile, we would multiply m by 0.05. We also add it with 30 since it is a base charge. This makes it C

It can't be A or B since that would mean the company earns $30.05 for every mile.

It can't be D since that would mean the company earns $30 for every mile with a base charge of $0.05.

PLS HELP ASAP THANKS ILL GIVE BRAINLKEST PLS THANKS PLS ASAP PLS PLS HELP ASAP THANKS

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

I believe the answer is B. 15/5 = n/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Once again same method as I've explained before. However, this one tricked me a little bit and still is because of the appearance of the smaller triangle. However, If I don't focus on that I believe this answer is correct. This is because in order to find the missing side we need to find the factor of which the triangle was expanded. So we must divide a given side of the bigger triangle by the same similar side of the little triangle, like 15/5. Then we must divide n by its similar side which the appearance made me think 13 which is not an option so I believe it is 12 and it was just trying to throw me off. So n/12. Therefore that is why I believe B is correct.

A club began with 3 members. Each month, each member brought one new member. Which function can be used to determine the number

erastova [34]

In x th month, members = $3^{2x}$ . Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Initially number of members = 3

Every month each member brought 1 new member.

To find the number of members after x months.

<u>Solution:</u>

In 1st month, members = 3

In 2nd month, members = 3×3 = 9 = 3²

In 3rd month, members = 9×9 = 81 = $3^{4}$

In 4th month, members = 81×81 = 81 = 6561 = $3^{8}$

Hence,

In x th month, members = $3^{2x}$
