A projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of theta above the horizontal with an initial speed of v in​ ft/s. The rang

e​ (the total distance traveled by the projectile over level​ ground) of the projectile is approximated by the equation x = \frac{32}{v^2} sin 2 \theta. Find the launch angle of a projectile with an initial speed of 85​ft/s and a range of 170 ft.

Answer:

\theta=24.4^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula you wrote has the fraction the other way around. You can find that the range​ of a projectile is in reality approximated by the equation x=\frac{v^2}{g} sin(2\theta)=\frac{v^2}{32ft/s^2} sin(2\theta), where we will use ft for distances.

From the given equation we have then \frac{x32ft/s^2}{v^2} =sin(2\theta), which means \theta=\frac{Arcsin(\frac{x32ft/s^2}{v^2})}{2} since the arcsin is the inverse function of the sin.

Since we have x = 170 ft and  v = 85 ft/s, we can substitute these values from the equation written, and we will have \theta=\frac{Arcsin(\frac{(170ft)(32ft/s^2)}{(85ft/s)^2})}{2}, and from now on we have just to use a calculator, obtaining \theta=\frac{Arcsin(0.75294117647)}{2}=\frac{48.84579804^\circ}{2}=24.4^\circ

Select all angles that MUST be supplementary to 9
erastova [34]

Answer:

Angles supplementary to angle 9 = Angle <u>10</u>, <u>7</u>, <u>5</u>, <u>1</u>, <u>4</u>, <u>3</u>, <u>15</u>, <u>12</u>, <u>24</u>, <u>22</u>, <u>20</u>, <u>19</u>, and angle <u>16</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the vertical, and corresponding angles theorem to find congruent angles.

Look for linear pairs (adjacent(next to each other, or share a side) angles that make 180° or a straight angle) from the corresponding angles.

Something is supplementary if it adds to 180 degrees.

The vertical angles theorem states that pairs of opposite angles made by interesecting lines are congruent.

The corresponding angles theorem states that corresponding or angles relative to the same position are congruent if the transversal crosses at least 2 parallel lines.

Solve (x + 5)2 = 48.
natita [175]

Answer:

x = -5  ±4sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 5)^2 = 48

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x + 5)^2) = ±sqrt(48)

x+5 = ±sqrt(16*3)

x+5 = ±4sqrt(3)

Subtract 5 from each side

x = -5  ±4sqrt(3)

Answer:

y=1

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+y=-14

4x+4y=-16

y=-3x-14

4x+4y=-16

y=-3x-14

4(-3x-14)+4x=-16

y=-3x-14

-8x-56=-16

y=-3x-14

-8x=40

y=-3x-14

x=-5

y=1

x=-5

Rachel lives in a home with a value of $195,000 and has a mortgage of $160,000. She has electronic equipment worth $2,325. She i
Elan Coil [88]

To Find :

Net worth of Rachel.

Solution :

Net worth is given by the (sum of all the assets she owns) -( total amount of loans she have ).

Net \ Worth=( 195000+160000+2325+9300+1437+1200)-(875+4800)\\\\Net \ Worth=\$\ 363587

Therefore, net worth of Rachel is $ 363587.

Hence, this is the required solution.
