Answer:

Callie needs to hide both her and her brother's candy from him so that none is eaten/stolen.  Then count each stash separately.  Put the candies in groups of 10 to quickly establish that over 70 pieces were collected.  Callie should steal a stack from her brother's pile while he's not looking.  Just calmly shift one stack of ten candies to her side.  She should announce she got 47 pieces and her brother only 32.

Answer:

x = 185.458 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

When we draw a picture, we are able to see that we need to use sin∅ to solve this problem:

sin15° = 48/x

xsin15° = 48

x = 48/sin14°

DB is a median (given). It goes from vertex point D to midpoint B. 

The point B is the midpoint of segment AC. So B cuts AC into two equal halves: AB and AC
Meaning AB = AC

AC = AB+BC ... segment addition postulate
AC = AB+AB ... substitution; replace BC with AB (valid because AB = AC)
AC = 2*AB
2*AB = AC
2*AB = 50 ... substitution; replace AC with 50
2*AB/2 = 50/2 ... divide both sides by 2
AB = 25 which is the answer

The altitude of a plane is 1200 meters. From a point on the ground, the angle of elevation of an airplane is 25º. What is the di
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

2839.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Altitude = 1200 m

Using trigonometry :

The distance from point P to the airplane :

Using trigonometric relation :

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Sin θ = altitude / x

Sin θ = 1200 m / x

Sin 25 = 1200 / x

0.4226182 = 1200 / x

x = 1200 / 0.4226182

x = 2839.4423

Distance from P to airplane = 2839.4 meters

Answer:

4 units to the left

Step-by-step explanation:

y = a (x - h)² + k

The h is a horizontal translation of <em>h</em> units.

For h > 0, move right

For h < 0, move left
