A helicopter is flying above a town. the local high school is directly to the east of the helicopter at a 20° angle of depressio
guapka [62]
Answer: 4.5 miles

Explanation:

When you draw the situation you find two triangles.

1) Triangle to the east of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from the high school to the helicopter = depression angle from the helicopter to the high school = 20°

b) hypotensue = distance between the high school and the helicopter

c) opposite-leg to angle 20° = heigth of the helicopter

d) adyacent leg to the angle 20° = horizontal distance between the high school and the helicopter = x

2) triangle to the west of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from elementary school to the helicopter = depression angle from helicopter to the elementary school = 62°

b)  distance between the helicopter and the elementary school = hypotenuse

c) opposite-leg to angle 62° = height of the helicopter

d) adyacent-leg to angle 62° = horizontal distance between the elementary school and the helicopter = 5 - x

3) tangent ratios

a) triangle with the helicpoter and the high school

tan 20° = Height / x ⇒ height = x tan 20°

b) triangle with the helicopter and the elementary school

tan 62° = Height / (5 - x) ⇒ height = (5 - x) tan 62°

c) equal the height from both triangles:

x tan 20° = (5 - x) tan 62°

x tan 20° = 5 tan 62° - x tan 62°

x tan 20° + x tan 62° = 5 tan 62°

x  (tan 20° + tan 62°) = 5 tan 62°

⇒ x = 5 tant 62° / ( tan 20° + tan 62°)

⇒ x = 4,19 miles

=> height = x tan 20° = 4,19 tan 20° = 1,525 miles

4) Calculate the hypotenuse of this triangle:

hipotenuese ² = x² + height ² = (4.19)² + (1.525)² = 19.88 miles²

hipotenuse = 4.46 miles

Rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5 miles

That is the distance between the helicopter and the high school.

G=-4x-4, solve for x
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

G = -4x - 4

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1: flip your equation and turn G into zero

ex: -4x - 4 = 0

step 2: add 4 to both sides

ex: -4x - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4   (-4x = 4)

step 3: divide both sides by -4

ex: -4x/-4 = 4/-4   (x = -1)

step 4: plug -1 into x then solve to check your answer

ex: -4(-1) - 4 = 0

4 - 4 = 0

0 = 0 (when this says 0 = 0 then that means your answer is always true)

Jafar will get $12400 more if his salary is increased by 31%. Jafar's salary is 20% less of his colleague Ali's salary. What is
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Ali's salary is $50000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jafar's salary be x.

(31/100)*x = 12400

x = (12400*100)/31

x = 400*100

x = $40000

Let Ali's salary be y.

y-[(20/100)*y] = 40000

y-(y/5) = 40000

(5y-y)/5 = 40000

4y = 200000

y = $50000

Gas Use
Alisiya [41]
Answer: 10.75
Steps:
After 110miles, it used 2.75gallons
Therefore, the amount of gas used per mile is: 100/2.75= 40 gallon per mile

So after 430miles, the number of gallons used: 430/40 = 10.75 gallons
