Answer: Tim's average speed is greater

====================================================

Explanation:

Lara traveled a total distance of

AB+BC = (6 miles)+(2 miles) = 8 miles

and did so in

(1.5 hours)+(1 hour) = 2.5 hours

Plug those values into the formula

r = d/t

and we get

r = (8 miles)/(2.5 hours)

r = (8/2.5) mph

r = 3.2 mph

Lara's average speed is 3.2 mph

---------------------------------------

We'll follow the same steps for Tim as well

total distance = AE+ED+DC

total distance = (2 mi)+(4 mi)+(6 mi)

total distance = 12 miles

total time = (0.5 hr)+(1.5 hr)+(1.5 hr)

total time = 3.5 hours

rate = distance/time

r = d/t

r = (12 miles)/(3.5 hours)

r = (12/3.5) mph

r = 3.42857 mph approximately

Tim's average speed is roughly 3.42857 mph. We see that he has the greater average speed.

The way to find the area of a triangle is A=\frac{B*H}{2}
if the base is 3 feet longer then the height we can write it like this B=H+3

now we can add it to our area equation
20=\frac{H(H+3)}{2}
20=\frac{ h^{2} +3h}{2}
40=H^{2}+3H
10\frac{1}{3}=H^{2}
h=3.2ft

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Part 1: It is not a valid conclusion to say that track and field sports are more popular than soccer based on the survey. The survey was taken at a track and field event so the people that were surveyed are probably biased.

Part 2: A better way of determining which sport is more popular is by counting how many people show up to each event and comparing the results.

Answer:

The distance of the plane from the base of the tower is 25.5 foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Max is in a control tower at a small airport.

He is located 50 feet above the ground when he spots a small plane on the runway at an angle of depression of 27°.

Now by using the trigonometric identity.

tan\theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

As shown in the figure given below

Perpendicular = CB

Base = AC = 50 feet

\theta = 27^{\circ}

Put in the identity.

tan\ 27^{\circ} = \frac{CB}{AC}

tan\ 27^{\circ} = \frac{CB}{50}

tan\ 27^{\circ} = 0.51\ (Approx)

Put in the above

0.51 = \frac{CB}{50}

CB = 0.51 × 50

CB = 25.5 foot

Therefore the distance of the plane from the base of the tower is 25.5 foot.
