Answer: the length of string that been let out to fly the kite this high is 172.89 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of string attached to the kite, the vertical height of the kite above the ground and the ground distance forms a right angle triangle.
With an angle of 57 degrees, the length of the string that is attached to the kite represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
The height of the kite above the ground represents the opposite side of the triangle
To determine h, the length of the string that has been let out to fly the kite this high, we would apply the
Sine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as
Sine θ = opposite side/hypotenuse
Sin 57 = 145/h
h = 145/Sin57 = 145/0.8387
h = 172.89
No, because (2,0) is a coordinate. x=2 and y=0. So just plug in the numbers where there's x or y with the appropriate number, (2 or 0). So in the first equation, x-2y=0, when you pug in the numbers, 2-2(0)=0, you know it's wrong because 2-0=0 isn't correct. So no. the point (2,0) is not a solution to the first equation. Now plug in the numbers for the second coordinate. You get 2(2)-3(0)=1. So 4-0=1. This is once again false no no. (2,0) satisfies neither equations.
Linear because x moves up by 3 and y moves up by 7
Answer:
24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50
x= 2.5 pounds of Granny Smith apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Gala apples = 3 lbs
Granny apples = x lbs
They cost 4.50 a pound
Total cost = 24.75
Total cost = gala apples * cost per pound + granny apples * cost per pound
Substitute in what we know
24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50
24.75 = 13.50 + 4.5x
Subtract 13.50 from each side
24.75-13.50 = 13.50-13.50 + 4.5x
11.25 = 4.5x
Divide by 4.50 on each side
11.25/4.5 = 4.5x/4.5
2.5 =x
Answer:
1.5 as decimal, 1 1/2 as a fraction
Step-by-step explanation:
1. convert 2 5/6 & (-1 4/12) to a improper fraction.
17/6 and -16/12
2. multiply 17/6 by 2 to match -16/12's denominator
17/6 * 2 = 34/12
We now have
34/12 + -16/12
A positive number plus a negative number is the same thing as subtraction so we remove the negative sign and replace the plus with a minus sign.
We have:
Now solve. 34-16 = 18
our answer is 18/12
