Answer:

8 is the length of JB

Step-by-step explanation:

Key skills needed: Equations, Congruence

1) We need to find out an equation to make based on the lengths that are given. ΔJMB is congruent to ΔKMB because of Side-Angle-Side:

JB is congruent to BK
Angle MBK would be a right angle, since it is supplementary to the right angle JBM. Since both are right angles they are congruent.
Both triangles have the side BM. Using the reflexive property, BM is congruent to itself, so there you go --> Side-Angle-Side

2) Now since both triangles are congruent, we can make the equation that the length of JM is congruent to the length of MK, using the fact that: If triangles are congruent, then corresponding parts are congruent.

3) This means that 16x -24 = 4x

Subtract 16x from both sides : -24 = -12x

Divide by -12 on both sides and get x = 2

4) Substitute x into the length of JB (16x-24)

16(2)-24 = 32-24 = 8

5) Therefore, the length of JB is 8

Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D

Find the length of DE. Round to the nearest hundredth. (Picture included)

LenKa [72]

Notice the picture
we have, the opposite side
the angle
and we want the hypotenuse

so recall your SOH CAH TOA $\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
\qquad \qquad 
% cosine
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

\\ \quad \\\\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent} =$

which one has all that? low and behold, is Ms Sine,
so let's bother Ms Sine

$\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\implies sin(27^o)=\cfrac{18}{hypotenuse}
\\\\\\
hypotenuse=\cfrac{18}{sin(27^o)}$

make sure your calculator is in Degree mode, since the angle here is in degrees, as opposed to Radian mode

Jamie invests $1,200 in an account that earns 3% interest. Assuming continuous compounding, how much is in his account after 7 y

goblinko [34]

Answer:

The amount in account after 7 years of investment is $1478.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The principal invested in account by Jamie = p = $1200

The rate of interest = r = 3% compounded annually

The Time period of investment = t= 7 years

Let The Amount in Jamie account = $ A

For continuous compounding

Amount = Principal × $e^{r \times time}$

Or, A = p × $e^{r \times time}$

Or, A = $1200 × $e^{0.03 \times 7}$

Or, A = $1200 × $2.71^{0.03 \times 7}$

Or, A = $1200 × 1.232

∴ A = $1478.4

So, The amount after continuous compounding = A = $1478.4

Hence , The amount in account after 7 years of investment is $1478.4 Answer

A bird catches a fish, flies 100 yards upward in a straight line, and then drops the fish. The fish lands at a spot that is 50 y

Marina CMI [18]

You can solve this using trigonometric functions.

The angle between the fish and the ground is
tan θ = 100 / 50
θ = tan-1 (2)
θ = 63.43°

The height of the bird before it dropped the fish is already given, which is 100 yards.
