This problem is an example of solving equations with variables on both sides. To solve, we must first set up an equation for both the red balloon and the blue balloon.
Since the red balloon rises at 2.6 meters per second, we can represent this part of the equation as 2.6s. The balloon is already 7.3 meters off of the ground, so we just add the 7.3 to the 2.6s:
2.6s + 7.3
Since the blue balloon rises at 1.5 meters per second, we can represent this part of the equation as 1.5s. The balloon is already 12.4 meters off of the ground, so we just add the 12.4 to the 1.5:
1.5s + 12.4
To determine when both balloons are at the same height, we set the two equations equal to each other:
2.6s + 7.3 = 1.5s + 12.4
Then, we solve for s. First, the variables must be on the same side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 1.5s from both sides of the equation:
1.1s + 7.3 = 12.4
Next, we must get s by itself. We work towards this by subtracting 7.3 from both sides of the equation:
1.1s = 5.1
Last, we divide both sides by 1.1. So s = 4.63.
This means that it will take 4.63 seconds for both balloons to reach the same height. If we want to know what height that is, we simply plug the 4.63 back into each equation:
2.6s + 7.3
= 2.6 (4.63) + 7.3
= 19.33
1.5s + 12.4
= 1.5 (4.63) + 12.4
= 19.33
After 4.63 seconds, the balloons will have reached the same height: 19.33 meters.
If the angle in B is 45º, that means the angle in A is also going to be 45º, considering it's a right triangle, so AC and BC are they have the same length.
Then using Pythagoras, you'll get that
equals
.
Now, you know that AC=BC and that AB=24.
So you'll get
. You do the square root in both sides and you get that 2AC=24 and AC=12.
Now that you know that both AC and BC equal 12, you can find the area by just multiplying them and then diving them by 2. (The formula for the area of a triangle is half base multiplied by height, and in a right triangle, if a cathetus is the base, the other cathetus<span> will be the height)
And so the area is equal to 72.</span>
Well Those are variables and it is using the Distributive property to solve. For example P(a+b) simplify P*a + P*b.
i dont have time to do all of it (sorry)
but this is how you do the point and slope questions:
use the equation: y-y1 = m(x - x1)
y1 is the y point you are given
x1 is the x point you are given
m is your slope
substitute all of those in from the question
the first one is:
y --4 = -5/6(x-8)
-- turns into a plus so the answer would be
y+4 = -5/6(x-8)
Answer:
15.6
Step-by-step explanation:
15+32=47
47/3=15.6
since the - is there
it will be -15.6
