Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
f(x) = 4x + 6
f(x) = 54
Step 2: Substitute variables
54 = 4x + 6
Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Subtract 6 on both sides:</u> 48 = 4x
<u>Divide both sides by 4:</u> 12 = x
Step 4: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify it is a solution.</em>
f(12) = 4(12) + 6
f(12) = 48 + 6
f(12) = 54
That's not a squre
anyway, we use ratios
base:person to corner=28:8
height to height=x:5
so
28/8=x/5 becasue same ratio
28/8=14/4=7/2
7/2=x/5
multiply
35/10=2x/10
35=2x
divide 2
17.5=x
x=17.5 feet
<span>a.
The radius of earth is about 6400 kilometers. Find the circumference of
a great circle.
Circumference = 2π(radius) = 2π(6400 km) = 40.212,39 km
b. Write an equation for the circumference of any
latitude circle with angle theta
As stated, </span><span><span>the
length of any parallel of latitude (this is the circumference of corresponding circle) is equal to the circumference of a
great circle of Earth times the cosine of the latitude angle</span>:
=> Circumference = 2π*radius* cos(Θ) = 2 π*6400km*cos(Θ) = 40,212.39 cos(Θ)
Answer: circumference = 40,212.39 cos(Θ) km
c. Which latitude circle has a
circumference of about 3593 kilometers?
Make </span><span><span>40,212.39 cos(Θ)</span> km = 3593 km
=> cos(Θ) = 3593 / 40,212.39 = 0.08935 => Θ = arccos(0.08935) = 84.5° = 1.48 rad
Answer: 1.48
d. What is the circumference of
the Equator?
</span>
For the Equator Θ = 0°
=> circumference = 40,213.49cos(0°) km = 40,212.49 km
Answer: 40,212.49 km
6% is less than 48%. Due to the reason that 48% is a larger portion.
