A rectangular prism has a width of 51 ft and a volume of 144 ft3. Find the volume of a similar prism with a width of 17 ft. Roun

meriva

Answer:

$5.3\ ft^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar shapes with scale factor $k$ have proportional volumes with coefficient $k^3$ i.e.

$\dfrac{V_{large}}{V_{small}}=k^3,$

where

$k=\dfrac{\text{width of large prism}}{\text{width of small prism}}.$

Since

$\text{width of large prism}=51\ ft,\\ \\\text{width of small prism}=17\ ft,$

then

$k=\dfrac{51}{17}=3.$

Hence,

$\dfrac{144}{V_{small}}=3^3\Rightarrow V_{small}=\dfrac{144}{27}=\dfrac{16}{3}=5\dfrac{1}{3}\approx 5.3\ ft^3.$

The angle of depression from the top of a cruise ship to the top of a sailboat is 22. Sitting above water, the cruise ship is 23

dusya [7]

Answer:

The distance between the cruise ship and the sail boat is 517 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cruise ship is 236 feet tall, and the sailboat is 236 tall; this means the distance between the top of the cruise ship and the top of the sail boat is

236 feet - 27 feet = 209 feet.

We also know that the angel of depression from the top of the cruise ship to the bottom of the cruise ship is 22°. This forms a right triangle as shown in the figure attached.

Now from trigonometry we get:

$tan \: \theta = \dfrac{209}{d}$

$d= \dfrac{209}{tan\:\theta }$

$\boxed{d=517ft}$

The distance between the cruise ship and the sailboat is 517 feet.
