Answer:
9.5°, yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant trig relation is ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
The distance opposite the angle of elevation is the plane's height, 500 m. The distance adjacent to the angle of elevation is the horizontal distance to the plane, 3 km = 3000 m. Then the angle is found from ...
tan(α) = 500/3000 = 1/6
α = arctan(1/6) ≈ 9.46°
The plane is approaching at an angle of 9.46°. It is safe to land, since that angle is less than 15°.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The usual descent angle for most commercial air traffic is 3°. Some airport geography demands it be different (steeper). A higher descent angle can put undue stress on the landing gear.
Answer:
25.2
Step-by-step explanation:
A calculator will evaluate this for you. If you don't have one, you can use a Google search box.
The Order of Operations tells you to start evaluation with the inner parentheses. Multiplication is performed before addition.
2(7 +2(2.8))
= 2(7 +5.6)
= 2(12.6)
= 25.2
The larger value is 9 x 10^9
The smaller value is 3 x 10^(-4)
Divide the larger over the smaller
Doing so will have you divide the coefficients 9 and 3 (numbers in front of the "times ten to the..." portions) to get 9/3 = 3.
Then you'll also subtract the exponents: 9 minus (-4) = 9 - (-4) = 9 + 4 = 13
In summary so far, we got a coefficient of 3 and an exponent of 13
So the final answer is 3 x 10^13 (assuming you want scientific notation)
If you want to convert to standard notation, instead of scientific notation, move the decimal point in 3.0 thirteen spots to the right to get
30,000,000,000,000
there are 13 zeros (four groups of 3 plus one just after the 3) in that value above. This is the number 30 trillion
Answer:
80 sq.in
Step-by-step explanation:
One square's side = 4in
One square's area = 16 sq. in
16 x 5 = 80 sq.in
Hope that helps!
Answer:
D)the time (in hours) a 4-year-old spends unsupervised per day
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that 4-year-olds in a certain country average 3 hours a day unsupervised and that most of the unsupervised children live in rural areas, considered safe
X - the time (in hours) a 4-year-old spends unsupervised per day
X is N(3,1.8)
