Height increase (m)

Mathematics

Complete question is;

In mountaineering, in general, the higher you go, the colder it gets. This formula shows how the heights and temperatures are related.

Temperature drop (°C) = height increase(m)/200

A) If the temperature at a height of 500 m is 23°C, what will it be when you climb to 1300 m

B) How far would you need to climb to experience a temperature drop of 5°C

Answer:

A) 19°C

B) 1500 m

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that the temperature is at a height of 500 m is 23°C, now we want to find the temperature when height increases to 1300 m.

Thus, it means;

Height increase = 1300 - 500 = 800 m

Thus, from the formula;

Temperature drop (°C) = height increase(m)/200, we have;

Temperature drop (°C) = 800/200 = 4°C

Now,since Initial temperature was 23°C, thus temperature at this increased height ; 23°C - 4°C = 19°C

B) for a temperature drop of 5°C, we have;

5°C = height increase(m)/200

Height increase = 200 × 5

Height increase = 1000 m

Thus, you will need to climb; 500 + 1000 = 1500 m

Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse is 2 square root of 13 ⇒ c

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the area of the right triangle is A = \frac{1}{2} × leg1 × leg2, where

leg1 and leg2 are the sides of the right angle

∵ The area of a right triangle is 12 in²

∵ The ratio of the length of its legs is 2: 3

→ Let leg1 = 2x and leg2 = 3x

∵ leg1 = 2x and leg2 = 3x

→ Substitute them in the rule of the area above

∴ 12 = \frac{1}{2} × 2x × 3x

∵ 2x × 3x = 6x²

∴ 12 =  \frac{1}{2} × 6x²

∴ 12 = 3x²

→ Divide both sides by 3 to find x²

∴ 4 = x²

→ Take √ for both sides

∴ x = 2

→ Substitute x in the expressions of leg1 and leg2 to find them

∴ leg1 = 2(2) = 4 inches

∴ leg2 = 3(2) = 6 inches

∵ hypotenuse = \sqrt{(leg1)^{2}+(leg2)^{2}}

∴ hypotenuse = \sqrt{(4)^{2}+(6)^{2}}=\sqrt{16+36}=\sqrt{52}

∵ The simplest form of \sqrt{52} = 2\sqrt{13}

∴ The length of the hypotenuse = 2\sqrt{13} inches
