Answer:
1675 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
For us to calculate how close the windmill is to the fire, if we imagine it as a triangle, the distance from watch tower to the fire will be:
tan θ= opposite/adjacent
opposite=140 ft
adjacent = x
θ=3°
Thus;
tan 3 = 140/x
x=140/tan 3
x = 2,671.359 ft
Now, the distance from watch tower to windmill will be:
tan θ=opposite/ adjacent
θ=8°
opposite=140 ft
adjacent=y
thus
tan 8 = 140/y
y = 140/tan8
y=996.15 ft
Now, the distance between fire and wind mill will be:
x - y = 2671.359 - 996.15
x - y = 1675.209 ≈ 1675 ft
okay so that would be a 1
because of the Rules of Zero
stating that whatever variable and exponent of 0 is 1 or something like that
D(t)=-16t²+32t+88
a] Maximum height
At maximum height d'(t)=0
from d(t);
d'(t)=-32t+32=0
thus
t=1
hence the maximum height will be:
d(t)=-16t²+32t+88
d(1)=-16(1)^2+32(1)+88
d(1)=104 ft
2] <span> how many seconds does it take to reach the ground after first being thrown upward?
Here we solve for t intercept
</span>when d(t)=0
<span>thus</span>
0=-16t²+32t+88
<span>solving for t, we get:
t=1-</span>√13/2
or
<span>t=1+</span>√13/2
<span>
t=-1.55 or t=3.55 sec
Thus the answer is t=3.55 sec
