Answer:

Height of slide = 5 feet (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of slide = 12 feet

Angle of depression = 25°

Find:

Height of slide

Computation:

Length of slide = Hypotenuse

Height of slide = Perpendicular

Using trigonometry function;

Sin θ = Perpendicular / Hypotenuse

Sin 25 = Height of slide / 12

0.422 = Height of slide / 12

Height of slide = 12 x 0.422

Height of slide = 5.064

Height of slide = 5 feet (Approx.)

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (4, 0) and (2, 6)? (5 points) y = 4x − 2 y = 2x − 4 y = −3(

DIA [1.3K]

For this case we have that by definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

$y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})$

We have the following points:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 2,6)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 4,0)\\m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0-6} {4-2} = \frac {-6} {2} = -3$

We chose a point:

$(x_ {0}, y_ {0}) :( 4,0)$

Substituting in the equation we have:

$y-0 = -3 (x-4)\\y = -3 (x-4)$

Finally, the equation is: $y = -3 (x-4)$

A brass ornament has a volume of 24cm^3.

dedylja [7]

For this case we have that by definition, the density is given by:

$d = \frac {M} {V}$

Where:

M: It is the mass

V: It is the volume

According to the data of the statement we have:

$V = 24 \ cm ^ 3\\d = 8.7 \frac {g} {cm ^ 3}$

So, the mass is given by:

$M = d * V\\M = 24 \ cm ^ 3 * 8.7 \frac {g} {cm ^ 3}\\M = 208.8 \ g$

Thus, the mass of the brass ornament is $208.8 \ g$

Answer:

$208.8 \ g$
