Answer:

2839.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Altitude = 1200 m

Using trigonometry :

The distance from point P to the airplane :

Using trigonometric relation :

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Sin θ = altitude / x

Sin θ = 1200 m / x

Sin 25 = 1200 / x

0.4226182 = 1200 / x

x = 1200 / 0.4226182

x = 2839.4423

Distance from P to airplane = 2839.4 meters

Draw the graphs of the pair of linear equations : x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4 Also find the points where the lines meet the x -
aliina [53]

Answer:

(1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the lines x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4

First we need to make x the subject of the formulas

For x+2y = 5

x = 5 - 2y ... 1

For 2x - 3y = -4

2x = -4+3y

x = (-4+3y)/2 ... 2

Equate 1 and 2

5 - 2y =  (-4+3y)/2

2(5-2y) = -4+3y

10 - 4y = -4+3y

-4 -3y = -4-10

-7y = -14

y = 14/7

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into 1

x = 5 = 2y

x = 5 - 2(2)

x = 5 - 4

x = 1

Hence the point where the lines meet will be at (1, 2)

Prove 2(2x+4)= 16 2(2x) by using the laws of exponents.<br> boris9
storchak [24]

The prove that the equation can be verified using the laws of exponents.

<h3>What is the proof of the equation given; 2^(2x+4)= 16 × 2^(2x)?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the equation given is; 2^(2x+4)= 16 • 2^(2x).

It follows from the laws of indices ; particularly, the product of same base numbers.

The evaluation is therefore as follows;

2^(2x+4)= 16 • 2^(2x)

2^(2x) • 2⁴ = 16 • 2^(2x)

2^(2x) • 16 = 16 • 2^(2x)

Hence, since LHS = RHS, it follows that the expression is mathematically correct.
