Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is classic right triangle trig. The height of the hill is 78.4 which serves as the side opposite the reference angle of 23 degrees. The side we are looking for is the hypotenuse of that triangle. The trig ratio that relates the side opposite a reference angle to the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the sin ratio. Setting it up using our values:
, where x is the unknown length of the hypotenuse. Solving for x:
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode before entering this in. You will get a length of the hypotenuse as 200.649 feet, so choice A.
Answer:

Explanation:
First put change the words into an equation:
√
3
×
√
6
Now you can multiply them together as you would normally multiply:
√
3
×
√
6
=
√
18
Now let's prime factor 18 and see if there are any squares that we can take out of it to simplify. All we have to see is if there are 2 numbers that are the same:
18
/ \
6
3
/ \
2
3
As you can see, we have a square:
3
×
3
=
9
So take
√
9
out of
√
18
. You should have:
√
9
√
2
But since
√
9
=
3
we can simplify further to make:
√
9
√
2
→
3
√

Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate the amount of money Peter will have in his account after 5 years. Formula for the amount after t years with interest compounded continuously : A = P * e ^(rt)
We know that r = 0.06, t=5, e = 2.71 and p= $8,000
A = 8,000 * 2,718 ^(0.06 * 5) = 8,000 * 2,718 ^ (0.3) = 8,000 * 1.3488158 = 10,798.53 so the answer is 10,798.53
Answer:
33 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio of the student to their shadow and flagpole to its shadow are equal, then you can use the proportion
5.5/3 = x/18 and cross multiply to find x.
5.5 × 18 = 99
3 × x = 3x
3x/3 = x, 99/3 = 33.
x = 33.
