An airplane descends 1.6 miles to an elevation of 6.95 miles. Find the elevation of the plane before its

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:    First, let's call the starting elevation of the plane: e

We can then write an equation representing this problem as:    

e−1.5mi=5.25mi

Now, add 1.5mi  to each side of the equation to solve for e

while keeping the equation balanced:

e−1.5mi + 1.5mi=5.25mi + 1.5mi

e−0=6.75mi

e=6.75mi

The plane's starting elevation was 6.75 miles

Is the product of 2/5 and 5 greater than or less than 2/5 is it greater than or less than 5
vlabodo [156]
A great way to figure this out is to actually multiply it.  2/5 x 5/1      You can simplify numbers diagonally, so the two fives can both cancel out into ones. now we have 2/1 x 1/1, which is the same as 2x1    This equals 2, which is less than five.
One great thing to know is that anything multiplied by a number less than one (a fraction or a decimal) will always be smaller than the original number.

Answer: 2

Karl starts the engine on his small private airplane. The engine drives a propeller with a radius of 9 feet and its centerline 1
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

  • 3.68 feet using given equation (wrong)
  • 12.5 feet using correct equation

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the given (incorrect) equation and fill in the value of t to find h:

  h = 12.5 +9sin(750(3.5)) = 3.68 . . . . feet

__

Or, you can use the correct equation, or just your knowledge of revolutions:

  h = 12.5 +9sin(750(2π·3.5)) = 12.5 . . . . feet

in 3.5 minutes at 750 revolutions per minute, the propeller makes 2625 <em>full revolutions</em>, so is back where it started — at 12.5 feet above the ground.

A competitive diver dives from a 33-foot high diving board. The height of the diver in feet after 't' seconds is given by u(t) =
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

t  = 0.375s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

h(t) = -16t^2 + 4t + 33 --- driver 1

Rate = 2ft/s -- driver 2

height = 33ft

Required

The time they passed each other

First, we determine the function of driver 2.

We have that:

Rate = 2ft/s and height = 33ft

So, the function is:

h_2(t) = Height - Rate * t

h_2(t) = 33 - 2t

The time they drive pass each other is calculated as:

h(t) = h_2(t)

-16t^2 + 4t + 33= 33 - 2t

Collect like terms

-16t^2 + 4t + 2t= 33 - 33

-16t^2 + 6t= 0

Divide through by 2t

-8t + 3= 0

Solve for -8t

-8t  = -3

Solve for t

t  = \frac{-3}{-8}

t  = 0.375s

Find all real zeros of the function y= -3x+9
Basile [38]
0= -3x+9
-9=-3x
3=x

Final answer: x=3

There is only one zero because it is linear, and can therefore only cross the x axis once.
