<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

                    B. 36,623 feet

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The angle of elevation is: 55 degree

We model this problem by taking a right angled triangle such that the side opposite to the 55 degree is of length 30000 feet.

Now let us consider x denote the distance of the plane from Francesa.

i.e. x denote the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.

Hence, in right angled triangle i.e. ΔABC we have:

\sin 55=\dfrac{30000}{x}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{30000}{\sin 55}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{30000}{0.81915}\\\\\\i.e.\\\\\\x=36623.2376\ feet

Round to the nearest feet we get: x=36,623 feet

The sides length of the cubical box is 3.8 cm if the volume of a cubical box is 54.872 cm³ option second is correct.

<h3>What is a cube?</h3>

It is defined as three-dimensional geometry that has six square faces and eight vertices.

We have a volume of a cubical box is 54.872 cm³

V = 54.872 cm³

As we know the volume of the cube:

V = side³

54.872 = side³

Taking cube root on both sides:

side = 3.8 cm

Thus, the sides length of the cubical box is 3.8 cm if the volume of a cubical box is 54.872 cm³ option second is correct.

ANSWER ASAP IM BEING TIMED
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Standard form means that you write the terms by descending degree.

x^4y^2 + 4x^3y + 10x^2

The degree of the first term x^4y^2 is 4+2=6

The degree of the second term 4x^3y is 3+1=4

The degree of the third term 10x^2 is 2

The terms are written by descending degree. Therefore, polynomial x^4y^2 + 4x^3y + 10x^2 is written in standard form.

Step-by-step explanation: I hope this helps <3
