A 10 foot ladder leans against a building that is 8 feet off of the ground. At what height would a 25 foot ladder touch the building if both ladders form the same angle with the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

19.99feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up will form a right  angles triangle:

First we need to get the angle of elevation of the first ladder using SOH, CAH, TOA

The length of the ladder will be the hypotenuse = 10foot

The opposite will be the height of the building = 8ft

Using Sin(theta) = opposite/hyp

sin Theta = 8/10

theta = sin^{-1}0.8

theta = 53.13°

If the length of the ladder is now 25 foot, the height of the building will be calculated as shown;

sin Theta = h/25

sin53.13 = h/25

h = 25sin53.13

h = 19.99feet

Hence the height of the building will be 19.99feet

On a hot summers day, 613 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are 1.75 dollars for children and 2 dollars fir adults. The recipts for admission totaled 1127 dollars. How many children and how many adults swam at the public pool that day?

Answers

Answer:396  children and 217 adults swam at the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

let Children be represented as  x

and Adults  be represented as y

therefore

Step 2

x + y =  613.........equation 1 -----represents the 613 people (children and adults) that used the public swimming pool.

And

1.75x + 2.00y = 1127... equation 2------represents the daily prices which totaled 1127 dollars

Making x subject formulae in equation 1 and substituting in equation 2

x= 613-y

1.75(613-y) + 2.00y = 1127

1072.75 -1.75y+ 2y=1127

1127-1072.5 = -1.75y +2y

54.25=0.25y

y=54.25/0.25

y=217

Substitute y = 218 in (1)

x + 217= 613

x = 613-217

x = 396

396  children and 217 adults swam at the pool.

Answer: 396 children and 217 adults tickets were sold at the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of people who used the pool = 613

Total sum on the receipt = 1127.

Price of adult tickets = $2

Price for children tickets = 1.75

Solution:

Let

Children = x

Adults = y

x + y = 613......... equation 1

1.75x + 2y = 1127..... equation 2

Multiply equation (1) by 2

2x + 2y = 1226........ equation 3

1.75x + 2y= 1127

Subtract (2) from (3)

0.25x = 99

x = 396

Substitute x = 396 in equation (1)

x + y = 613

396 + y = 613

y = 217

396 children and 217 adults tickets were sold at the pool.

What is the solution: –9x + 4 –12 = 64

Answers

Answer:

Simplifying

-9x + 4 + -12 = 64

Reorder the terms:

4 + -12 + -9x = 64

Combine like terms: 4 + -12 = -8

-8 + -9x = 64

Solving

-8 + -9x = 64

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '8' to each side of the equation.

-8 + 8 + -9x = 64 + 8

Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0

0 + -9x = 64 + 8

-9x = 64 + 8

Combine like terms: 64 + 8 = 72

-9x = 72

Divide each side by '-9'.

x = -8

Simplifying

x = -8

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

-9x + 4 - 12 = 64

-9x = 64 - 4 + 12

-9x = 72

x = -8

The distance an object falls when dropped from a tower varies directly as the square of the time it falls. If the object falls 144 feet in 3 seconds, how far will it fall in 18 seconds?
a.
4536 ft
b.
5832 ft
c.
5184 ft
d.
288 ft

Answers

Answer:

5184ft

Step-by-step explanation:

d= distance an object falls when dropped from a tower

t= time it takes to fall

According to the first sentence,

d(sign of proportionality) t^2

Introducing a constant k:

d =kt^2

when d=144ft ,t=3sec

Substitute the values to find k

144 =k(3^2)

144 = 9k

k = 144/9

k =16

Substitute k =16 and t =18sec

d =kt^2

d =16×(18^2)

d =16× 324

d = 5184ft

Sally grew 18 flowers with 9 seed packets. How many seed packets does Sally need to have a
total of 44 flowers in her garden? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

Answers

Answer:

22 seed packets

Step-by-step explanation:

we can look at this in a couple of ways. the first way to solve this is an algebraic problem. we know that 18 flowers came from 9 packets so 18 is going to be on one side of the equation while 9 is going to be on the other. we dont know how many seeds were in each packet though so we will use x to represent the amount of seeds. now our equation looks like this: 18 = 9x. heres how to solve it:

given: 18 = 9x

to get x alone we divide each side by 9 because its the opposite of muliplication: 2 = x

answer: x = 2 seeds per packet

another way we could figure this out is by using proportions. when we see the ratio flowers to packet is 18:9, we can tell that it needs to be simplified. we know both 9 and 18 are divisible by 9 so when we do that we get the answer, our ratio of flowers to packets is 2:1.

next, we need to look back at how we solved that problem we just did, and plug in our new numbers. when doing it algebraically, we follow these steps:

plug in: 44 = (x)2

x times 2 is equal to 2x: 44 = 2x

to get x alone divide each side by 2 because its the opposite of multiplication: 22 = x

answer: x = 22

if we want to solve it using ratios and proportionalities, we set it up flowers to packets like before so we have the ratio 44:x. seeing that the ratio was 2:1 last time, we know that 44 is 2 times x, or x is 1/2 (half) of 44. so we can find half of 44 to get x. half of 44 is 22 so 44:22 is the ratio's answer.

tammy will order both macaroni and potato salad. She estimates that she will spend a total of $38 on 7 pounds of salad. She uses this system of equations to show how many pounds of macaroni salad, m, and potato salad, p, she plans to buy. 5m + 6p = 38 m + p = 7 How many pounds of each salad does Tammy plan to buy?

Answers

Answer: Marcaroni salad = 4 pounds

Potatoes salad = 3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

5m + 6p = 38 ......... i

m + p = 7 .......... ii

Multiply equation i by 1

Multiply equation ii by 5

5m + 6p = 38 ....... iii

5m + 5p = 35 ....... iv

Subtract equation iv from iii

p = 3

Since m+p = 7

Therefore, m + 3 = 7

m = 7-3

m = 4

Marcaroni salad = 4 pounds

Potatoes salad = 3 pounds

En una piscina hay 1500 litros y el desagüe bota en el despiche medio litro por minuto. La función que describe la cantidad de litros (lt) que habrá en la piscina a las x horas después de abrir el despiche del desagüe es

Aquí, queremos obtener una función que describa la cantidad de litros que quedan en la piscina a las x horas después de abrir la salida de drenaje.

De la pregunta, la capacidad total de la piscina. es de 1.500 litros.

La tasa de goteo es de 0,5 litros por minuto.

x horas es lo mismo que 60 * x = 60x minutos

Ankur estimated the quotient of 15 and one-third divided by (negative 4 and two-thirds) to be 3. Which best describes his error? Ankur multiplied the compatible numbers 15 and –3. Ankur found that the quotient of a positive number and a negative number is negative. Ankur found that the quotient of a positive number and a negative number is positive. Ankur added the compatible numbers 15 and –3.

Answers

Answer:

Ankur found that the quotient of a positive number and a negative number is negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Quotient of 15 and one-third divided by (negative 4 and two-thirds) = 3

Mathematically,

( 15 1/3) ÷ (-4 2/3) = 3

Here,

Dividend = 15 1/3 (positive)

Divisor = - 4 2/3 (negative)

Dividing a positive Dividend by a negative Divisor will always give a negative quotient

Hence,

15 1/3 = 46 / 3

-4 2/3 = - 14 / 3

46/3 ÷ - 14/3

= 46/3 * -3 / 14

Ankur must have either forgotten or neglected the negative sign in the divisor

The correct option which describes Ankur's error is: Ankur found that the quotient of a positive number and a negative number is positive.

Given that,

Ankur estimated the quotient of 15 and one-third divided by (negative 4 and two-thirds) = 3

We have to find,

Which best describes his error?

According to the question,

The two [tex]15\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] and [tex]-4\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] number are mixed fractions.

Ankur estimated the quotient of 15 and one-third divided by (negative 4 and two-thirds) = 3

Then,

Convert the equation into an improper fraction,

[tex]= \rm \dfrac{15\dfrac{1}{3}}{-4\dfrac{2}{3}} \\\\\ Convert \ into \ improper \ fraction\\\\= \dfrac{\dfrac{15\times3+1}{3}}{\dfrac{-4\times 3+2}{3}} \\\\[/tex]

Now simplify the equation,

[tex]= \dfrac{\dfrac{46}{3}}{\dfrac{-10}{3}} \\\\\\ = \dfrac{\dfrac{46}{3} } {\dfrac{3}{-10}} \\\\\\ = \dfrac{-3}{14}[/tex]

The mistake he has committed, while dividing two fractions, he must have forgotten that one of the fractions which is in the denominator bears a negative sign before it.

Ankur forgot to put the negative sign before 3.

Hence, The correct option which describes Ankur's error is: Ankur found that the quotient of a positive number and a negative number is positive.

Choose 1 answer:

Answers

Answer: 1200 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance (d) across which bag is dragged = 20 meters

Applied force (F) = 60 N

The workdone is the product of the applied force and the distance through which the force is applied ;

Hence,

Workdone = Force * Distance

Workdone = 60 N * 20 m

Workdone = 1200Nm

OR 1200 Joules

The work done required to drag box is 1200 Joule.

Work done is defined as the energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force .

[tex]Workdone=force*displacement+cos\theta[/tex]

Where [tex]\theta[/tex] is angle between direction of force and displacement.

Here given that force F = 60 N and Displacement = 20 meters

Since, Displacement of box is in the direction of force.

Therefore, [tex]\theta=0[/tex] degree.

Substituting all the values.

 [tex]W=60*20*cos0\\\\W=1200*1\\\\W=1200joule[/tex]
