A balloon rises vertically at the rate

Mathematics
1 answer:
vodomira [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a) 63°

b) 600ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question, we would be using Trigonometric function

a) Find (to the nearest whole degree)

the angle with the horizontal at

which the balloon rises.

This above question a is a right angled triangle that is solved for using Trigonometric function of tan

From the question, we told that,

Vertical distance ( opposite side) = 10 feet

Horizontal distance ( adjacent side) = 5 feet.

Tan θ = opposite side/ adjacent side

Tan θ = 10/5

Tan θ = 2

θ = arc tan (2) or tan -¹(2)

θ = 63.434948823°

θ = 63°

The angle with the horizontal at

which the balloon rises to the nearest whole degree is 63°

b) find (to the nearest 10 feet) its

distance from the starting point

after one minute.​

Distance = Speed × time

Time is given in the question as 1 minute

We would convert it to seconds = 60 seconds

We are told in the question that the balloon rises vertically at the speed of 10ft/s

Distance = 10ft/s × 60seconds

Distance from the starting point per minute = 600ft

write an equation of the line that is parallel to the line whose equation is 4y+9=2x and passes through the point (7,2)
Liula [17]
Ok so we’ll put the first equation into slope int form

4y=2x-9

y=1/2x -4/9

since the likes are parallel, the slope of the line we are trying to write an equation for is 1/2

equation:

y-2=1/2(x-7)

I don’t think I’m doing the top correctly. Could you help 7-10?
natta225 [31]

7

a trapezoid

equation for area = h(a +b) ÷ 2

so you sub that in

8(9 +21) ÷ 2 = 8 × 30 ÷ 2 = 120

so the area is 120cm

8

A trapezoid

equation for area = h(a +b) ÷ 2

so you sub that in

6(9 + 5 ) ÷ 2 = 6 × 14 ÷ 2 = 42

So the answer is 42 inches

9

A kite

equation for area = p× q ÷ 2

so you sub that in

(3+3)×(4.5+6.5) ÷ 2 = 6×11÷2 = 3

So the answer is 33 cm

sorry I can't see 10s measurements

  0.85c . . . . 85% of the subscription price

__

b) Louisa's expression (-0.15c) tells the amount of the discount, not the cost of the subscription. If Louisa were to write the cost of the subscription, her expression would be ...

  c - 0.15c

__

c) The expression of (a) is the cost of the subscription; the expression Louisa wrote is the amount of cost reduction due to the discount.
