Answer:
7/40 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve using proportions:
Find the scale factor by dividing the numerators 25 by 1/8.
25 ÷ 1/8 = 200 This is the common ratio
To get from the top left number to the top right number, you divide 25 by 200.
To get from the bottom left number to the bottom right number, you divide 35 by 200.
35 ÷ 200 = 0.175
1/8 of an inch represents 0.175 feet.
To find 0.175 in fraction form, reduce 35/200 to its lowest terms.
35/200 = 7/40
1/8 of an inch represents 7/40 feet.
Answer:
angle A=54 degree
angle B =36 degree
Step-by-step explanation:
let angle B be x
angle A=x+18
since they are complementary angles sum of these two angles will be 90 degree
x+x+18=90
2x=90-18
2x=72
x=72/2
x=36 degree
substitute the value of x to find angle A and angle B
for angle A
x+18
36+18
54 degree
for angle B
angle B =x
=36 degree
The best way to approach this problem is to look at the graph of the given function. Replace values of x from 1 to 24 to indicate the numbers of hours in a day. As seen on the graph, there is only one point where the port is at high tide. That would be at 1:00 am.
Looking at the graph, it would be safe for the boats to be in the port when the graph levels off at around 10 to 24. That's from 10 am to before 12 midnight. Then, they would have to stay away between 12 midnight to before 10 am.
