A hot air balloon is released into the air. During its straight ascent, the angle of elevation was 15° and, 3 minutes later, the

angle of elevation increased 20°. How fast is the balloon traveling, in km/h, if the angle measurements were taken 300m away from the launch site?

Answer:

The speed of balloon is 0.16 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

BC = 300 m

AD = x

AB = y

time, t = 3 min = 3 x 60 = 180 s

By the triangle, ADC,

tan 15 = \frac{AD}{BC}\\\\0.27 \times 300 = x \\\\x = 80.4 m

By the triangle, BDC

tan 20 = \frac{BD}{BC}\\\\0.36 \times 300 = x + y \\\\x + y = 109.2 m

So, y = 109.2 - 80.4 = 28.8 m

Speed of balloon = 28.8/180 = 0.16 m/s

The management of a restaurant with locations all over the country has developed a new hamburger that researchers believe will s
Sliva [168]

Using sampling concepts, it is found that the best way to perform a randomized experiment with the goal of determining if this new hamburger will sell better than the hamburger that is currently sold is as follows:

Randomly select 40 restaurants, let each one decide if it wants to sell the new hamburger, and compare sales in those restaurants to sales in the restaurants that chose not to sell the new hamburger.

<h3>What is sampling?</h3>

It is is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population.

For example:

I want to estimate the proportion of New York state residents who are Buffalo Bills fans. So i ask, lets say, 1000 randomly selected New York state residents whether they are Buffalo Bills fans, and expand this to the entire population of New York State residents.

In this problem, a sample of randomly selected restaurants should be taken to sell the new hamburger, and then be compared with the ones who sell the old hamburger to see if sales increased, hence the correct option is:

Randomly select 40 restaurants, let each one decide if it wants to sell the new hamburger, and compare sales in those restaurants to sales in the restaurants that chose not to sell the new hamburger.

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x – 10?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

f⁻¹(x) = (1/2)x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

In y = f(x), swap the variables, then solve for y. The expression you get is f⁻¹(x).

... y = 2x -10

... x = 2y -10 . . . . . . swapped variables

... x +10 = 2y . . . . . add 10

... (1/2)x + 5 = y . . . . divide by 2

... f⁻¹(x) = (1/2)x + 5 . . . . . . rewrite using function notation
