Step-by-step explanation:
1/7 of 42 is smaller. 47/7= 6 < 18 = 36/2
Answer:option A is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given triangle UVW is a right angle triangle. This is because one of its angles is 90 degrees. The sum of the two other angles is 180. To determine Cos U, we will apply trigonometric ratio.
Cos U = adjacent side/ hypotenuse.
Looking at the triangle with C as the reference angle,
Adjacent side = 12
Hypotenuse( always the longest side of the triangle) = 13
Therefore,
Cos U = 12/13
The initial height of the balloon is 10 feet which then increases by 70% to (10 ×1.7) = 17 feet, then to (17 × 1.7) =28.9 feet, and so fourth if the rate of increase is kept constant. Therefore, forming a geometric sequence such that to get any term in the sequence we use the formula ar∧(n-1), where a is the first term, r is the common ratio, and n is the term in the sequence. In this case a is 10 and r= 1.7 , to get the height in the fourth minute it means n =5 (for the first term there is 0 minutes, such that for 0 minutes n= 1)
Thus, 10 × 1.7 ∧ 4 = 83.521 feet.
Therefore, the answer is 83.521 feet
The answer to this is a=3
