Answer:
(0,2.3) if only one choice expected.
(0,2.3) and (0,0) if "all that apply" expected, since (0,0) is also a vertex of the green region.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached diagram, the given answer optsions are shown in brown.
The red line shows the optimal combinations of the two variables, hence a maximization problem.
Out of the four answer options, two coincide with a vertice of the valid region (shown in green), namely (0,0) and (0, 2.3).
Out of the two indicated options which correspond to a vertex, the origin (0,0) is usually ignored for a maximization problem, which leaves us with (0,2.3) as the answer.
Answer:
14.875
Step-by-step explanation:
77/8 = 9.625 and 21/4 = 5.25
So, 9.625+5.25 =14.875
Answer:
15 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a horizontal segment approximately 4 inches long. Label the right endpoint A and the left endpoint C. Label the length of AC 4.2 meters. That is the horizontal distance between the eye and the blackboard.
At the right endpoint, A, draw a vertical segment going up, approximately 1 inch tall. Label the upper point E, for eye. Label segment EA 1 meter since the eye is 1 meter above ground.
At the left endpoint of the horizontal segment, point C, draw a vertical segment going up approximately 2 inches. Label the upper point B for blackboard. Connect points E and B. Draw one more segment. From point E, draw a horizontal segment to the left until it intersects the vertical segment BC. Label the point of intersection D.
The angle of elevation you want is angle BED.
The length of segment BC is 2.1 meters. The length of segment CD is 1 meter. That means that the length of segment BD is 1.1 meters.
To find the measure of angle BED, we can use the opposite leg and the adjacent leg and the inverse tangent function.
BD = 1.1 m
DE = 4.2 m
tan <BED = opp/adj
tan <BED = 1.1/4.2
m<BED = tan^-1 (1.1/4.2)
m<BED = 15
Answer: 15 degrees
