Answer:

The midpoint is;

(-1,-0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we shall use the midpoint formula

That would be;

(x,y) = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2

(x1,y1) = (-9,-1)

(x2,y2) = (7,0)

(x,y)

= (7-9)/2 , (0-1)/2

= -2/2 , -1/2

= (-1, -0.5)

Oksana_A [137]

The corresponding sides of the model and the actual bridge are in proportion because the two solids are similar.

The scale factor from the model to the actual bridge is 5/25 = 6/30 = 8/40 = 1/5.

If Diana walks forward and her angle looking to the top of the building changes to 40°, how much closer is she to the building?

elena55 [62]

The closer Diana gets to the building, the smaller the angle becomes

Diana is 17.6 feet closer to the building

<h3>How to calculate the distance from the building</h3>

To calculate the distance between her and the building, we make use of the following tangent ratio

$\tan(\theta) = \frac{h}{d}$

Where:

$\theta = 40^o$
h represents the height of the building; h = 130
d represents the distance from the building

So, we have:

$\tan(40) = \frac{130}{d}$

Make d the subject

$d = \frac{130}{\tan(40)}$

Evaluate tan(40)

$d = \frac{130}{0.8391}$

$d = 154.93$

Initially, Diana is at a distance of 172.53.

The difference in both distance is:

$\Delta d = 172.53 - 154.93$

$\Delta d = 17.6$

Hence, Diana is 17.6 feet closer to the building

Help!!! Carla earns $6.25 per hour working at a store. When she gets her paycheck she repays her brother $40. She has at least $

lora16 [44]

What i did was add 40 to 120 to get 160. then i devided 160 by the 6.25 she got per hour and i got 25.6 and rounded to 26 which would end up being the least amount of hours she could’ve worked. so 26 is the answer i’m pretty sure
