Well, A linear relationship has to be a straight line and a proportional relationship has to go through the origin! Hope that's a good hint!
First solve the return in each
price per unit
Return = number units sold x price
per unit
Return1 = 5000 units x Php 900
Return1 = php 4,500,000
Next is solve the other price per
unit
Return2 = number units sold x
price per unit
Return2 = (5000 + 1500 units0 x (
php 900 – 100)
Return2 = php 5,200,000
So the php 800 per unit will have
greater return
The ladder, leaning against the building, forms a right triangle with height "a" being the distance from the ground to the window, and hypotenuse "c" being the length of the ladder.
Because it's a right triangle, we can use trigonometric ratios to find the angles we're missing.
For part A), to solve for the angle between the base of the ladder and the ground, you'll want to use sine, because we know the lengths of the opposite side and the hypotenuse.
Sin(x) = a/c , solve for angle x in degrees or radians.
For part B), finding the angle between the top of the ladder and the building, remember that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, or pi radians, depending on which unit your teacher prefers.
Assuming degrees, we can say that angle y = 180-90-x. You are simply subtracting the two known angles to find the third.
For part C) use the Pythagorean theorem. You're looking for the length of the base, "b". Recall:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Plug in the known values, and solve for b.
