Answer:

Plane B is closer.

The distance for Plane A is 7.9 km.

The distance for Plane B is 7.4 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance to the tower, altitude must be converted to kilometers. Each 1000 ft is 0.3048 km, so the heights of the planes are ...

-- Plane A: (20 thousand ft)*(0.3048 km/thousand ft) = 6.096 km

-- Plane B: (8 thousand ft)*(0.3048 km/thousand ft) = 2.4384 km

The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the distance from each plane to the tower:

-- distance = √((ground distance)² + (height)²)

-- Plane A distance = √(5² +6.096²) ≈ √62.16 ≈ 7.9 . . . km

-- Plane B distance = √(7² +2.4384²) ≈ √54.95 ≈ 7.4 . . . km

The distance for Plane B is shorter, so Plane B is closer to the tower.

Function Notation - Function Machines
stepan [7]

The function notation of the following are:

f(1) = 5

f(0) = 1

f(-3) = -11

f(8) = 33

Given:

x is the input.

the function is 4x+1

f(x) is the output.

we are asked to determine the values of the following :

a. f(1)

x = 1

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(1) = 4(1)+1

f(1) = 4+1

f(1)=5

b. f(0)

x = 0

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(0) = 4(0)+1

f(0) = 0+1

f(0)=1

c. f(-3)

x = -3

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(-3) = 4(-3)+1

f(1) = -12+1

f(1)= -11

d. f(8)

x = 8

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(8) = 4(8)+1

f(8) = 32+1

f(1)=33

Hence we get the required values.

Cheryl is planning to go to a four-year college in two years. She develops a monthly savings plan using the estimates shown. Wha
Alik [6]

Answer:

$541.67 per month

Step-by-step explanation:

Tuition and other expenses = $8,250 per semester.

There are two semesters in a year

She has 4 years to spend

Total semester=4years*2semesters

=8 semesters

4 years in college which is a total of 8 semesters.

Total Tuition and other expenses = $8,250 * 8

= $66,000

She needs a total of $66,00 to complete her college

Assistance from parents=$15,000

Financial aid(per semester)=$4750

Total financial aid=$38,000

Total assistance=

Assistance from parents+ financial aid

=$15000+$38,000

=$53,000

Total savings=Total amount needed - Total assistance

=$66,000 - $53,000

=$13,000

She needs to save $13,000 in two years

There are 12 months in one year

2 years=2*12=24 months

Monthly savings=Total savings/24 months

=$13,000/24

=$541.666666

To the nearest cent

=$541.67

Can anyone answer this question please<br> 6[y-2]/7-12=2[y-7]/3
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

y =47.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First eliminate the fractions by multiplying through by the LCM of 7 and 3 which is 21:

21* 6[y-2]/7-21*12 = 21*2[y-7]/3

18(y - 2) - 252 = 14(y - 7)

18y -36 - 252 = 14y - 98

18y - 14y = -98 + 36 + 252

4y = 190

y = 190/4

y = 47.5.
