Answer:

The horizontal distance between the parking lot and the launch site is 470 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----->  the horizontal distance between the parking lot and the launch site

we know that

The tangent of angle of 12 degrees is equal to divide the altitude of 100 meters by the horizontal distance

so

tan(12°)=100/x

Solve for x

x=100/tan(12°)=470 meters

Tanya is training a turtle for a turtle race. For every 5/6 of an hour that the turtle is crawling, he can travel 1/7 of a mile.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

6/35 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate, put distance over time

distance = 1/7 miles

time = 5/6 of an hour

miles/hours

(1/7)/(5/6)

(1/7)*(6/5)

6/35 miles per hour

A right rectangular prism has a length of 6 cm a width of 8 cm and a height of 4 cm the dimension of the prism are half what is
Setler [38]

Answer:

Answer 24 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the dimensions are 1/2  the volume is 1/8 the original volume. There are 2 ways to do this. I'm going to choose the most straight forward.

Formula

V = L * w * h

Givens

L = 6

w = 8

h = 4

Solution

V_original = 6 * 8 * 4 = 192

V_half = 3 * 4 * 2 = 24

V_original / V_half = 192/24 = 8/1

So the other way around (V_half/V_original) = 1/8

HURRY ASAP PLEASE <br> Which of the following is the inverse
zloy xaker [14]

Let y = f(x)

Let cr = cube root for short

y = cr{3x} + 2

Switch x and y.

x = cr{3y} + 2

Solve for y.

x - 2 = cr{3y}

Raise both sides to the 3rd power.

(x - 2)^3 = [cr{3y}]^3

(x - 2)^3 = 3y

[(x - 2)^3]/3 = y

Replace y with the inverse function notation

f^(-1) x.

f^(-1) x = [(x - 2)^3]/3

Choice b is the answer.
