Answer:

JK = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ BKJ and Δ BCA are similar and ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{JK}{AC}$ = $\frac{BK}{BC}$ , substitute values

$\frac{JK}{40}$ = $\frac{3}{5}$ ( cross- multiply )

5JK = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )

JK = 24

A man is standing at a radar base and observes an unidentified plane at an altitude 6000m flying towards the radar base at an an

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The speed in of the plane is 115.47 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height at which the plane is flying = 6000 m

Angle of elevation at the radar base = 30 Degrees

Angle of elevation at the radar base after one minute = 60 Degrees

To Find:

The Speed of the plane in meter per second = ?

Solution:

Let us use the tangent of the angle to find the distance (d) to a point directly below plane:

when the angle is 30 degrees

$tan(30) = \frac{6000}{d1}$

$d1 = \frac{6000}{tan(30)}$

$d1 = \frac{6000}{0.577}$

d1 = 10392.3 meters

when the angle is 60 degrees

$tan(60) = \frac{6000}{d2}$

$d2 = \frac{6000}{tan(60)}$

$d2 = \frac{6000}{1.732}\\$

d2 = 3464.1 meters

distance travelled by aircraft in 1 min is

=>d1 - d2

=>0392.3 - 3464.1

= 6928.2 m/min

Now converting to m/sec

=> $\frac{6928.2}{60}$

=>115.47 m/sec

Need help with math probelm if do 5 stars and brainly points

PtichkaEL [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

let's first convert feet to inches

4 ft = 48 inches ( width )

6.5 ft = 78 inches ( length )

12.5 ft = 150 inches ( height )

each cube is 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4

x-axis ( length )

78 ÷ 1/4 = 78 x 4 = 312 cubes

y-axis ( width )

48 x 4 = 192 cubes

z-axis ( height )

150 x 4 = 600 cubes

the total number of cubes fit in the closet is :

312 x 192 x 600 = 35,942,400 cubes

Seven times the sum of a number and 8 equals 4

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

n= -52/7

Step-by-step explanation:

7(n+8)=4

(7×n)+ (7×8)=4

7n +56=4

7n +56-56=4-56

7n+0= -52

7n=-52

7n/7= -52/7

n= -52/7
