1 answer:
Answer:
- 6955 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
- <em>Refer to attached. Point J, segment BJ and angle measures added.</em>
<u>Step 1, find BJ</u>
- BJ / AB = sin 20° ⇒ BJ = AB sin 20° ⇒ BJ = 600 sin 20° ≈ 205.2 ft
<u>Step 2, find BP</u>
- BJ/BP = cos 75° ⇒ BP = BJ / cos 75° ⇒ BP = 205.2/cos 75° ≈ 792.8 ft
<u>Step 3, find PQ</u>
- PQ/BP = sin 35° ⇒ PQ = BP sin 35° ⇒ PQ = 792.8 sin 35° ≈ 454.7 ft
<u>Step 4, find the elevation of peak P</u>
- Height above sea level = 6500 + 454.7 ≈ 6955 ft (rounded)

Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
Given y is directly proportional to x² then the equation relating them is
y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition y = when x =
, then
= k(
)² =
k ( multiply both sides by 8 )
1 = 2k ( divide both sides by 2 )
k =
y = x² ← equation of proportion
When y = , then
=
x² ( multiply both sides by 2 )
9 = x² ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ± 3
with positive value x = 3 → d
