Answer:

\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x and y are proportional and the equation relating them is

y = rx ← r is the constant of proportionality

To find r use any ordered pair from the table

Using x = 9, y = 4.5 , then

4.5 = 9r ( divide both sides by 9 )

\frac{4.5}{9} = r , that is

r = \frac{1}{2}

It was recently estimated that females outnumber males by about three or two. If there are 1770 people in a county, how many of
max2010maxim [7]

GIVEN

1) Females outnumber males by 3 to 2.

2) There are 1770 people in the city.

SOLUTION

Let the number of males be x and the number of females y. Therefore, the total number of people can be written to be:

x+y=1770\text{   -----------(1)}

If there are 3 females for every 2 males, we have that:

\begin{gathered} \frac{y}{3}=\frac{x}{2} \\ \therefore \\ x=\frac{2y}{3}\text{   ----------(2)} \end{gathered}

We can substitute equation (2) into equation (1) and solve for y:

\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{3}y+y=1770 \\ \frac{2y+3y}{3}=1770 \\ 5y=1770\times3 \\ 5y=5310 \end{gathered}

Dividing both sides by 5, we have

y=1062

There are 1062 females in the county.

A girl is on the beach and the angle of elevation from her feet to the top of a lighthouse is 62' If the lighthouse is 30ft tall
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

15.95 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Angle of elevation = 62°

Using trigonometric relation :

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

From the drawing attached :

Opposite = 30 feets

Distance between girl and lighthouse = d

Tan 62 = 30 / d

1.8807264 * d = 30

d = 30 / 1.8807264

d = 15.951283

d = 15.95 feets
