A meerkat was digging a new path to get to his home 8 ft below the surface. He hit a stump and dug 15 ft lower so the roots would not be in his path. What elevation is the meerkat?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The elevation is [tex]32.3^{o}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The home of the meerkat is 8 feet below the surface. So that the root of the stump would not be in his path, he dug 15 feet lower.

This can be represented by the sides of a right angled triangle. Applying the appropriate trigonometric function, let the elevation be represented by θ.

Then,

Sin θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

        = [tex]\frac{8}{15}[/tex]

Sin θ = 0.5333

⇒ θ = [tex]Sin^{-1}[/tex] 0.5333

      = 32.287

θ = [tex]32.3^{o}[/tex]

The elevation of the meerkat is [tex]32.3^{o}[/tex].

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

5. 21x + 4 = 22x - 2 (corresponding angles)

Collect like terms

21x - 22x = -4 - 2

-x = -6

divide both sides by -1

x = 6

6. (x + 72) + (x + 132) = 180 (linear pair)

x + 72 + x + 132 = 180

Add like terms

2x + 204 = 180

2x = 180 - 204

2x = -24

x = -12

7. 90 = 22x + 2 (vertical angles)

90 - 2 = 22x

88 = 22x

Divide both sides by 22

4 = x

x = 4

8. 12x + 10 = 13x + 3 (vertical angles)

Collect like terms

12x - 13x = -10 + 3

-x = -7

Divide both sides by -1

x = 7

9. 17x = 16x + 5 (alternate exterior angles)

17x - 16x = 5

x = 5

✔️17x

Plug in the value of x

17(5) = 85°

10. 21x - 6 = 20x (corresponding angles)

Add like terms

21x - 20x = 6

x = 6

✔️20x

Blake is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars and making $22 per hour tutoring. In a given week, he can work no more than 16 total hours and must earn no less than $220. If x represents the number of hours washing cars and y represents the number of hours tutoring, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Answers

Answer:

9x + 22y ≥ 220

x + y ≤ 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First x is number of hours washing cars and y is number of hours tutoring.

He makes $9 per hour on cars, $22 per hour tutoring. So we use variables as substitutes for actual values.

That is 9x + 22y. He can't make less than 220, so use the sign greater or equal to 220.

He also must work no more than 16 hours. Total hours is x+y, and no more than 16 means use the sign less than or equal to.

please give thanks by clicking the heart button :)

            C.    y + 7 = -7(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is:

                          y - y₀ = m(x - x₀)

where m is the slope and (x₀, y₀) is the point which the line passes through

The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is  -1

so if given lines slope is ¹/₇ them:

     ¹/₇·m = -1

        m = -7

(3, -7)     ⇒    x₀ = 3,  y₀ = -7

Therefore:

               y - (-7) = -7(x - 3)

                y + 7 = -7(x - 3)

Bobby hit the wrong lever and as a result the factory produced way too many cheese puffs. If the factory managers decide to to give away 1/3 of 1/9 of a ton away as samples, what fraction of a ton did they give away? Make sure you answer is fully reduced.

Answers

Given:

The factory managers decide to to give away [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] of [tex]\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex]  of a ton away as samples.

To find:

what fraction of a ton did they give away?

Solution:

According to the question, the factory managers decide to to give away [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] of [tex]\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex] of a ton away as samples. So,

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{3}\left(\dfrac{1}{9}(1\text{ ton})\right)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{9}\times (1\text{ ton})[/tex]

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{27}\times (1\text{ ton})[/tex]

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{27}(1\text{ ton})[/tex]

So, samples is [tex]\dfrac{1}{27}[/tex] of a ton.

Therefore, they give away [tex]\dfrac{1}{27}[/tex] of a ton as samples.

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the
graph?
O y > x-2 and x- 2y < 4
O y > + 2 and x + 2y < 4
Oy>X-2 and x+ 2y < 4
Oy>x-2 and x +2y<-4

Answers

Answer:

y > x - 2.

2*y + x < 4

The correct option is the third one.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's find the red shaded part.

We can see that the shade is above the line, then we will have something like:

y > a*x + b

where a*x + b is the equation for the line.

a is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

In the graph, we can see that the line intercepts the y-axis at y = -2, then we have:

b = -2

To find the slope we need two points of the line, we can use the points (0, -2) and (2, 0)

We know that for a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) the slope is:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Then for this line, the slope will be:

a = (0 - (-2))/(2 - 0) = 2/2 = 1

Then the equation for this line is:

1*x - 2

And the inequality is:

y > x - 2.

Now for the blue one, the shaded part is below the line, then we will have:

y < a*x + b

In this case, the y-intercept is y = 2.

And we can see that this line passes through the points (0, 2) and (4, 0)

Then the slope is:

a = (0 - 2)/(4 - 0) = -2/4 = -1/2

Then this inequality is:

y < (-1/2)*x + 2

If we rewrite this as the ones shown in the options, we have:

y < (-1/2)*x + 2

2*y < -x + 2*2

2*y + x < 4

Then the two inequalities are:

y > x - 2.

2*y + x < 4

Then the correct option is the third one:

The system of linear inequalities y > x - 2 and x + 2y < 4 is represented by the graph

What is a Triangle?

A triangle is a polygon with three sides, angles and vertices.

The triangle is classified into various types on the basis of the angle and on the basis of the equality of the length of the sides,

When the measure of all the angles of a triangle is less than 90 degree, it is an acute angle triangle.

When the measure of one of the angle of a triangle is equal to 90 degree, it is a right angled triangle.

When the measure of one of the angle of a triangle is greater than 90 degree, it is called an obtuse angle triangle.

When the measure of all side is different, it is a scalene triangle.

When the two side of a triangle is equal, it is an isosceles triangle.

When all the sides of a triangle is equal, it is an equilateral triangle.

Answers

Answer:

x - 3y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the line in intercept form

The intercept form of the equation of a line is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1[/tex]

Where:

a = x-intercept

b = y-intercept

The standard form of a line is:

Ax + By = C

The given line has a=6 and b=-2, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{6}+\frac{y}{-2}=1[/tex]

Multiplying by 6:

x - 3y = 6

This is the required standard form of the line.

Thus, the standard form of the line is:
