Mountain officials want to know the length of a new ski lift from A to C , as shown in the figure below. They measure angle DAC

to be 32° . They then move 960 feet to point B and measure angle DBC to be 18° . What is the length of the new ski lift from A to C ? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.

We assume that the hill is represented by points ACD  and the ski lift is represented by points BCD. From the description above, points CDB would have an angle of 90 degrees. Then, we would have:

sin (32) = CD / 960
CD = 508.72

tan 32 = 508.72 / AD
AD = 814.13

Therefore, the distance would be 814.13 - 508.72 = 305.4 ft.

Which situation below would represent a negative rate of change:
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: John's situation

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation for each situation.

John’s situation:

The amount of money that John has (y) is equal to his school account (40) minus the product of the number of days (x) and the amount he spends per day( 3)

y =40-3x

As days pass by, John has less money (negative rate of change)

Judy's situation

The amount of money that Judy has in her savings account (y) is equal to the product of the number of days (x) and the amount he saves per day (20/2)

y = x (20/2)

Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading west and the other east. The westbound train travels at 80 miles per
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

2.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = rate * time

If the west-bound train travels at a rate of 80 mph for t hours, then the distance it travels is 80t.  

If the east-bound train travels at a rate of 90 mph for t hours, then the distance it travels is 90t.

The distance between the trains after t hours is 476; therefore, the distance of the west-bound train plus the distance of the east-bound train equals the total distance between them, 476:

80t + 90t = 476 and

170t = 476 so

t = 2.8 hours
