Answer:

435 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = <P = 49° (angle of elevation)

Opposite side = 500 ft

Adjacent side = d = ?

Apply trigonometric function, TOA.

This:

Tan P = opp/adj

Tan 49 = 500/d

d × Tan 49 = 500

d = 500/Tan 49

d = 434.643369 ≈ 435 ft (to the nearest foot)

On a farm there was a cow. And on the farm there were 2 sheep. There were also 3 chickens. What is the total mass of the 1 cow,
RoseWind [281]

The total mass of the living things on the farm is 588 kg.

<h2><u>Mass calculation</u></h2>

Since on a farm there was a cow, 2 sheep and 3 chickens, to determine what is the total mass of the 1 cow, the 2 sheep, the 3 chickens, and the 1 farmer on the farm, the following calculation must be performed :

  • (6.2 x 10) + (4 x 10 x 10) + (2 x 6 x 10) + (3 x 2 x 1) = X
  • 62 + 400 + 120 + 6 = X
  • 588 = X

Therefore, the total mass of the living things on the farm is 588 kg.

Can someone help me with this pls?
madam [21]
Please bare with me bc I’m bad at wording things, change it as you please!

It’s a minimum. I know that the function is a minimum because whenever there is a - in the beginning of the equation it flips your parabola over the x axis and my parabola becomes concave down. When my parabola is concave up I have a minimum, vise versa is a maximum. Because there isn’t a -, my parabola is concave up meaning the function has a minimum

Which piece wise function is graphed below
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is how to approach the problem:

We see that all our restrictions for all four answer choices are relatively the same with a couple of changes here and there.
One way to eliminate choices would be to look at which restrictions don't match the graph.

At x<-5, there is a linear function that does have a -2 slope and will intersect the x axis at -7. The line ends with an open circle, so any answer choice with a linear restriction of x less than or equal to -5 is wrong. This cancels out choices C and D.

Now we have two choices left.

For the quadratic in the middle, the vertex is at (-2,6) and the vertex is a maximum, meaning our graph needs to have a negative sign in front of the highest degree term. In our case, none of our quadratics left are in standard form, and instead are in vertex form.

Vertext form is f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k.

h being the x-coordinate of the vertex and k being the y-coordinate.

We know that the opposite of h will be the actual x-coordinate of the vertex, so if our vertex is -2, we will see x+2 inside the parenthesis. This leaves option A as the only correct choice.

Write and solve a proportion to answer the question. (Skills Review Handbook) 22. 30 is 15% of what number?
algol13

Answer:

The answer is 148.6666667

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Set a linear quation

\frac{22.30}{x}  =  \frac{15}{100}

2) Cross multiply

15x = 22.30 \times 100

3) Multiple the right side

15x = 2230

4) Divide both side by 15

\frac{15x}{15}  =  \frac{2230}{15}

5) Solve the linear equation

x = 148.6666667
