5)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve each proportion, we apply cross multiplication.
Question 1:
Simplifying both sides by 5
Question 2:
Simplifying both sides by 20
Simplifying by 3
Simplifying by 2
Question 3:
Simplifying both sides by 7
Simplifying both sides by 3
Question 4:
Question 5:
Simplifying by 2, both sides
Simplifying by 8, both sides
Q) Without a calculator, we must estimate the value of the following expression:
A) I estimate 3 - √38 to be approximately -3.2.
First, we estimate the value of √38. √38 is between √36 and √49, but close to √36 (since 38 is closer to 4 than it is to 9). Since √36 is 6, √38 is probably something like 6.1 or 6.2. Filling 6.2 in the expression and simplifying, we have this:
So, I expect the number 3 - √38 to be close to -3.2.
Using a calculator we find that: 3 - √38 ≅ -3.16, which it is approximately the result that we found.
Answer
Without a calculator we find that 3 - √38 ≅ -3.2.
Answer:
14) 21.136505024965 m
15) 43.076759215619 km
Step-by-step explanation:
14)
let h be the height of the lighthouse:
tan(41.3) = 18.7/h
Then
h = 18.7÷tan(41.5)
= 21.136505024965 m
………………………………………
15)
90-71.4 =18.6
Let s be the distance that the plane flew
towards the south:
tan(90 - 71.4) = s/128
Then
tan(18.6) = s/128
Then
s = tan(18.6)×128
= 43.076759215619 km
