Answer:

74.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah, the kite and Patricia form the vertices of a right-angled triangle with the hypotenuse side the length of the string L = 60 feet and adjacent side the distance between Hannah and Patricia = d = 16 feet.

Let the angle between the string and the sand be Ф.

By trigonometric ratios,

cosФ = adjacent/hypotenuse

= d/L

= 16 feet/60 feet

= 0.2667

Ф = cos⁻¹(0.2667)

= 74.53°

≅ 74.5°

So, he angle between the string and the sand is Ф = 74.5°

USPshnik [31]

So in 5 acres of land produces 21,000 pounds of strawberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Last year, 3\frac{1}{2} acres i.e 3.5 acres produced 14,700 pounds of strawberries. So we need to determine how many strawberries were produced per acre.

To do this we divide the total number of strawberries produced by the number of acres it was produced in.

The number of strawberries produced per acre= \frac{14,700}{3.5} = 4,200 pounds.

Step 2:

To determine the number of strawberries in 5 acres of land, we multiply the number of strawberries per acre by the number of acres.

The number of strawberries produced in 5 acres= 5(4,200) = 21,000 pounds.

So in 5 acres of land produces 21,000 pounds of strawberries.

What is the axis of symmetry of the function f(x)= -(x+9)(x-21)
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The axis of symmetry is x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, first find the two x-intercept values and then take the average. This will always be the line of symmetry.

x + 9 = 0

x = -9

x - 21 = 0

x = 21

Now take the average of these two numbers.

(-9 + 21)/2

12/2

Help ASAP!!! Savings Account.Christine Chu borrowed $4500 from a bank at a simple interest rate of 2.5% for one year.
nydimaria [60]

Answer: $112.50 ; $4612.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Determine how much interest Christine paid at the end of 1 year.

This will be:

Simple interest = PRT/100

where

P = principal = $4500

R = rate = 2.5%

T = time = 1 year

Interest = (4500 × 2.5 × 1)/100

= 11250/100

= $112.50

b) Determine the total amount Christine will repay the bank at the end of 1 year.

Total amount = Principal + Interest

= $4500 + $112.50

= $4612.5
