A man is flying in a hot-air balloon in a straight line while keeping it at a constant altitude. As he approaches a parking lot

and notices that the angle of depression from his balloon to a friend's car is 36º. He flew directly over the car. A minute and a half later he had travelled 360 feet horizontally; he looks back to see his friend getting into the car and observes the angle of depression to be 37º. At that time, what is the distance between him and his friend?

Answer:

221°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using sine rule

a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC

A= 36°

B= 37°

C = 107°

It takes 90 seconds to go from point A to point B. To find a, we will use

a/sinA = c/sinC

a/sin36°= 360/sin 107°

a(sin 107°) = 360sin36°

a = 360sin 36° / sin 107°

a = 360(0.5878) / 0.9563

a = 211.608/0.9563

a = 221.27°

a = 221°

Which expressions are equivalent to 2^5•2^4? Check all that apply.
Maurinko [17]

Option A: 2^9

Option E: 2^{-2}.2^{11}

Option F: (2.2.2.2.2)(2.2.2.2)

Solution:

Given expression is 2^5.2^4.

To find which expression is equivalent to the given expression.

Option A: 2^9

Using exponent rule: a^b.a^c=a^{(b+c)}

2^5.2^4=2^{(5+4)}=2^9

Therefore 2^9 is equivalent to the given expression.

Option B: 2^{20}

It is not equivalent to the given expression.

Option C: 2.2^9

2.2^9=2^{(1+9)}=2^{10}

Therefore, It is not equivalent to the given expression.

Option D: 2^{10}.2^2

2^{10}.2^2=2^{(10+2)}=2^{12}

Therefore, It is not equivalent to the given expression.

Option E: 2^{-2}.2^{11}

2^{-2}.2^{11}=2^{(2-11)}=2^9

Therefore, It is equivalent to the given expression.

Option F: (2.2.2.2.2)(2.2.2.2)

(2.2.2.2.2)(2.2.2.2)=2^5.2^4

Therefore, It is equivalent to the given expression.

Hence option A, Option E and Option E are equivalent to the given expression.

A father decided to give twenty five percent of his monthly income to his three children as their monthly allowance. The eldest
Helen [10]

Answer:

The youngest child will receive $2000

Step-by-step explanation:

A father decided to give 25% of his monthly income to his three children as their monthly allowance.

The eldest child got 45% of the allowance and the youngest got 20%. This means that the second child got:

100 - (45 + 20) = 100 - 65 = 35%

The second child received $3500.

Let the 25% of his monthly income be x.

Hence:

35% of x = 3500

=> \frac{35}{100} * x = 3500

x = \frac{3500 * 100}{35}

x = $10000

The amount the man shared among his children is $10000.

Hence, the youngest child (20%) will receive:

20% of $10000

\frac{20}{100} * 10000

= $2000

The youngest child will receive $2000.
