Answer: <em>A. 241 feet</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The figure shows two rectangular triangles. </em>

<em>These triangles are similar since they have two identical angles: </em>

<em>the first angle is 90 degrees; </em>

<em>the second angle is equal because the law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. </em>

<em>The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of REFLECTION.</em>

<em>Let's make the proportion:</em>

<em />\dfrac{4}{273} =\dfrac{5}{x} \\\\x=\dfrac{273 \cdot 5}{4} =341.25 \: (feet)\\<em />

<em>It takes a minimum of 100 feet for a parachute to open and safely land without injury, so:</em>

<em>341.25 - 100 = 241.25 (feet)</em>

<em>241.25 ≈ 241 (feet)</em>

The circumference of a circular field is 241.78 yards. What is the radius of the field? Use 3.14 for it and do not round your an
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

38.5 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is the diameter multiplied by pi, and the radius is half of the diameter. If we divide 241.37 by pi we get a diameter of 77, and half of that is the radius, which is 38.5.

A certain radioactive material decays in such a way that the mass in kilograms remaining after t years is given by the function
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The mass of radioactive material remaining after 50 years would be 48.79 kilograms

<h3>How to determine the amount</h3>

It is important to note that half - life is the time it takes for the amount of a substance to reduce by half its original size.

Given the radioactive decay formula as

m(t)=120e−0.018t

Where

t= 50 years

m(t) is the remaining amount

Substitute the value of t

m(t) = 120e^-^0^.^0^1^8^(^5^0^)

m(t) = 120e^-^0^.^9

Find the exponential value

m(t) = 48.788399

m(t) = 48.79 kilograms to 2 decimal places

Thus, the mass of radioactive material remaining after 50 years would be 48.79 kilograms
