Turn everything into decimal form, then divide by 2.
To turn into decimal divide the numerator by the denominator, and leave the whole number as it is.
For slide 1
45.4/2=22.6
For side 2
Gusset plate is 1....
take 5.75 and divide it by 2 =2.875
Take 3.333/2 = 1.6665
Corner of side is 1 and 1 inch thick
for side 3
37.4 divided by 2 = 18.7
Yes! Yup your right! Congrats yup!
Answer:
The linear speed in which Darlene is traveling is 24.74 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The wheel experiments rolling, which is a combination of translation and rotation. The point where linear speed happens is located at geometrical center of the wheel and instantaneous center of rotation is located at the point of contact between wheel and ground. The linear speed (
), measured in inches per second, is defined by following expression:
(1)
Where:
- Radius of the wheel, measured in inches.
- Angular speed, measured in radians per second.
If we know that
and
, then the linear speed, measured in miles per hour, in which Darlene is traveling is:


The linear speed in which Darlene is traveling is 24.74 miles per hour.
Since the problem is not telling us the height of Silvio, we are going to assume it is not relevant for our calculations.
Let

the altitude of the incoming plane. We know for our problem that the distance between Silvio and the tower is 3 miles, Also we know that the angle of elevation to the plane is 40°. With this information we can create a triangle as shown in the figure. We need a function that relates the angle of elevation with its opposite and adjacent sides, that function is tangent.




We can conclude that we should use the trig function tangent to model this situation; also, we can conclude that the equation that describes this situation is
