Answer:
125.25 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometry of the problem can be modeled by a right trianlge in which the side adjacent to the angle is 310 ft, and the side opposite the angle is the one we want to find. The relevant trig relation is ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
__
Solving for the Opposite side (the height of the balloon), we find ...
Opposite = Adjacent · Tan
height = (310 ft)·tan(22°) ≈ 125.25 ft
Enola's balloon is about 125.25 ft above the ground.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
If we assume Enola's angle measurement can have a possible error of ±0.5°, then the corresponding error in the balloon height is more than ±3 ft. It is a bit of nonsense to report the height to the nearest 0.12 inches, (0.01 ft).
Answer:
Part A)
Part B) The distance between the y-intercepts is equal to 4 units
Part C) The value of h(x) will always be greater than the value of m(x) for any value of x
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A) What is the value of h(4) -m(16)
we have
For x=4
Find the equation of the line m(x)
Find the slope
take the points
(8,2) and (12,4)
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
substitute
Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form
we have
substitute
solve for b
therefore
Find m(16)
so
Part B) we know that
The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero
Find the y-intercept of h(x)
For x=0
Find the y-intercept of m(x)
For x=0
therefore
The distance between the y-intercepts is equal to 2-(-2)=4 units
Part C)
Graph both equations
using a graphing tool
see the attached figure
The value of h(x) will always be greater than the value of m(x) for any value of x

Answer:
240 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Shannon bought 518 pounds of apples.
Bill bought 278 pounds of apples.
We need to find how many more pounds of apples Shannon bought than Bill.
More Apples = Shannon Apples - Bill Apples
= 518 - 278
= 240
Hence, 240 pounds of apples Shannon bought than Bill.
