Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rate at which the elevator travels modeled by the expression;

y = 30x where y is the height, in feet, and x is the number of seconds.

If the observatory in the John Hancock Center in Chicago is located in the top floor, 900 feet above the ground, we can calculate the time taken to reach the top floor by substituting y = 900 into the equation and solve for x as shown;

y = 30x

900 = 30x

Rearrange

30x = 900

Divide both sides by 30

30x/30 = 900/30

x = 30

Hence it takes 30seconds for the elevator to reach the top floor

What would the circumference be of a circle if the radius is 3 units
MAVERICK [17]

If we have a circle with a radius of 3 we need to find the diameter of the circle.  Remember radius is half of the diameter.  So, the diameter is 6 units.

Use the circumference formula: C=3.14D

C=3.14(6)

C=18.84 units

How are the two angles below related? Drawing not to scale.<br><br><br> Drawing is not to scale.
Phoenix [80]

we know that

Two angles are supplementary if their sum is equal to 180 degrees

in this problem we have

Angle\ 1=45\°

Angle\ 2=135\°

so

Angle\ 1+Angle\ 2=180\°

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The two angles are supplementary
