Answer:

A = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add to 90

x-21 + 2x-15 = 90

Combine like terms

3x -36 = 90

3x-36+36 = 90+36

3x = 126

Divide by 3

3x/3 =126/3

x = 42

We want to find ZA = x-21

A = 42-21

A = 21

If the sum of the measures of two angles is 90° they are known as complementary angles.

<h3 /><h3>According to the question</h3>

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \:( x \:  -  \: 21) \:  +  \: (2x \:  -  \: 15) \:  =  \: 90 \degree

Now , Opening brackets and simplifying

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \: x \:  -  \: 21 \:  +  \: 2x \:  -  \: 15\:  =  \: 90 \degree

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \:3x \:  -  \: 36 \:  =  \: 90 \degree

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \:3x \:  =  \: 90 \: +  \: 36

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \:3x \:  =  \: 126

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \:x \:  =  \:  \frac{126}{3}  \\

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \:x \:  =  \:   \cancel\frac{126}{3}   \: \:  \large \: ^{42}  \\

\bf \large \longrightarrow \:  \: x \:  =  \: 42

Now , we have to find ZA .

  • ZA = x - 21

\bf \large \implies \:  \:A \:  =  \: 42 \:  -  \: 21

\bf \large \implies \:  \:A \:  =    \: 21

The measure of angle ZA is 21°

Scientists modeled the intensity of the sun, I, as a function of the number of hours since 6:00 a.m., h, using the
MAVERICK [17]

The functions are illustrations of composite functions.

<em>The soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67</em>

The given parameters are:

\mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}} ---- the function for sun intensity

\mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}} -- the function for temperature

At 2:00pm, the value of h (number of hours) is:

\mathbf{h = 2:00pm - 6:00am}

\mathbf{h = 8}

Substitute 8 for h in \mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}}, to calculate the sun intensity

\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{12 \times 8 - 8^2}{36}}

\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{32}{36}}

\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{8}{9}}

Substitute 8/9 for I in \mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}}, to calculate the temperature of the soil

\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{5000 \times 8/9}}

\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{4444.44}}

\mathbf{T(8/9) =66.67}

Approximate

\mathbf{T(8/9) =67}

Hence, the soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67
