Answer:

y=7* (0.5)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that when x increases from 'a' to 'a+2' then y must increase by a factor of 1/4=0.25.

i.e. when x=a and x'=a+2.

then y/y=0.25 where y' is the function after putting x' to the old function.

Jan spends part of her year as a member of a gym. She then finds a better deal at another gym, so she cancels her membership wit

valkas [14]

She spent 8 months in the 1st gym and 4 months in the 2nd gym

Step-by-step explanation:

Jan spends part of her year as a member of a gym.

She then finds a better deal at another gym so she cancels her membership with the first gym after x months
She spends the rest of the year, y months, with the second gym
The membership to the first gym costs $75 per month, while the membership for the second gym costs $45 per month
She ended up spending a total of $780 over the course of the year

We need to find how much time she spent at each gym

∵ She spent x months in the 1st gym

∵ She spent y months in the 2nd gym

∵ Her course is a year

- There are 12 months in a year

∴ x + y = 12 ⇒ (1)

∵ The membership to the first gym costs $75 per month

∵ The membership to the second gym costs $45 per month

∵ She ended up spending a total of $780 over the course

∴ 75x + 45y = 780 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

Multiply equation (1) by -45 to eliminate y

∵ -45x - 45y = -540 ⇒ (3)

- Add equations (2) and (3)

∴ 30x = 240

- Divide both sides by 30

∴ x = 8

- Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ 8 + y = 12

- Subtract 8 from both sides

∴ y = 4

She spent 8 months in the 1st gym and 4 months in the 2nd gym

A jet is coming in for a landing. It's currently 25,000 feet in

Mariana [72]

The angle of depression is 29.0521°. So it is a safe landing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The plane is flying at a height of 25,000 feet and 45,000 feet away from the landing strip. Assume it lands with an angle of depression of x°.

So a right-angled triangle can be formed using these measurements. The triangle's opposite side measures 25,000 feet while the adjacent side measures 45,000 feet. The angle of the triangle is x°.

To determine the value of x, we calculate the tan of the given triangle.

$tanx = \frac{opposite side}{adjacent side}.$

Step 2:

The length of the opposite side = 25,000 feet.

The length of the adjacent side = 45,000 feet.

$tan x = \frac{25,000}{45,000} = 0.5555.$

So x = 29.0521°. Since x < 30°, it is a safe landing.
