Answer:
The flight speed should be 84.79 miles per hour at angle of 22.92° Northeast
Step-by-step explanation:
The given information are;
The distance from Parrot Point Airport to Ivy Cliffs = 291 miles
The direction from Parrot Point Airport to Ivy Cliffs = 9.1° Northeast
The speed of the wind = 25 miles per hour
The direction of the wind = Southeast
The time for the journey = 3 hours
The component of the wind velocity are;
For Southeast direction which is an inclination of 45°
Speed of the wind = -25 × sin(45) + 25 × cos(45)
Without the wind, the velocity of flight will be V = Displacement/time, which gives;
V = 291/3 = 97 miles/hour = 97 mph
Let the required velocity of flying = X, we have;
X×sin(θ) + X×cos (θ) -25× sin(45) + 25 × cos(45) = 97×sin(9.1) + 97×cos(9.1)
X×sin(θ) -25× sin(45) = 97×sin(9.1)
X×sin(θ) = 97×sin(9.1 )+25× sin(45 ) = 33.02
X×sin(θ) = 33.02
X×cos (θ) + 25 × cos(45) = 97×cos(9.1)
X×cos (θ) = 97×cos(9.1)- 25 × cos(45) = 78.1
X×cos (θ) = 78.1
∴X×sin(θ)/(X×cos (θ)) = tan(θ) = 33.02/78.1 = 0.423
tan⁻¹(0.423) = 22.918≈ 22.92°
X×sin(θ) = 33.02
X = 33.02/(sin(θ)) = 33.02/(sin(22.92°)) = 84.79 miles per hour
Therefore, the flight speed should be 84.79 miles per hour at angle of 22.92° Northeast.
The graph of h(x) is a translation of f (x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x EndRoot. On a coordinate plane, a cube root function goes through (negative 3, negative 1), has an inflection point at (negative 2, 0), and goes through (negative 1, 1). Which equation represents h(x)?
Answer:
The correct option is;
[tex]h(x) = \sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that h(x) is a translation of f(x) = ∛x
From the points on the graph, given that the function goes through (-1, 1) and (-3, -1) we have;
When x = -1, h(x) = 1
When x = -3, h(x) = -1
h''(x) = (-2, 0)
Which gives
d²(∛(x + a))/dx²= [tex]-\left ( \dfrac{2}{9} \cdot \left (x + a \right )^{\dfrac{-5}{3}}\right )[/tex], have coordinates (-2, 0)
When h(x) = 0, x = -2 which gives;
[tex]-\left ( \dfrac{2}{9} \cdot \left (-2 + a \right )^{\dfrac{-5}{3}}\right ) = 0[/tex]
Therefore, a = (0/(-2/9))^(-3/5) + 2
a = 2
The translation is h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex]
We check, that when, x = -1, y = 1 which gives;
h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{-1 + 2} = \sqrt[3]{1} = 1[/tex] which satisfies the condition that h(x) passes through the point (-1, 1)
For the point (-3, -1), we have;
h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{-3 + 2} = \sqrt[3]{-1} = -1[/tex]
Therefore, the equation, h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex] passes through the points (-1, 1) and (-3, -1) and has an inflection point at (-2, 0).

Answer:
B. The horizontal cross-sections of the prisms at the same height have the same area.
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the cone and the pyramid have the same volume. This is important.
This follows the Cavalieri's principle that, for the case of 3 dimensions, as the present case, it states, roughly, that if we have two bodies like the cone and the pyramid, and if we have parallel planes crossing each section, and we always have the same area, these two bodies have the same volume.
In this case, both, cone and pyramid have the same volume, then (reciprocally):

Total weight of gravel on the roof = [tex] 24,372 pounds [/tex]
Step-by-step Explanation:
The area Adams planned to cover with gravel can be divided into 3 rectangles as shown in the diagram attached.
We would have 3 rectangles. See the attachment below to check out how we arrive at the dimensions of the 3 rectangles.
Area of rectangle = L*W
Area to be covered by gravel = area of rectangle 1 + area of rectangle 2 + area of rectangle 3
Area to be covered with gravel = [tex] (30*17) + (13*9) + (52*27) [/tex]
[tex] Area = (30*17) + (13*9) + (52*27) = 2,031ft^2 [/tex]
Total weight of gravel on the roof = 12 pounds per square foot multiplied by total area of the roof to be covered = [tex] 12 * 2031 = 24,372 pounds [/tex]

The triangle would be divided in half from that rectangle.
Right triangle ABC is located in A(-1,-2), B(-1,1) and C(3,1) on a coordinate plane. what is the equation of a circle with radius AC?
A) (x+1)*2+(y+2)*2=9
B) (x+1)*2+(y+2)*2=25
C) (x-3)*2+(y-1)*2= 16
D) (x-3)*2+(y-1)*2=25
Answer:
Hey there!
First, we want to find the radius of the circle, which equals the length of line segment AC.
Length of line segment AC, which we can find with the distance formula: [tex]\sqrt{25\\[/tex], which is equal to 5.
The equation for a circle, is: [tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex], where (h, k) is the center of the circle, and r is the radius.
Although I don't know the center of the circle, I can tell you that it is either choice B or D, because the radius, 5, squared, is 25.
Hope this helps :) (And let me know if you edit the question)
Answer: The equation of the circle is (x+1)²+(y+1)² = 25
Step-by-step explanation: Use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the length of the radius from the coordinates given for the triangle location: A(-1,-2), B(-1,1) and C(3,1) The sides of the triangle are AB=3, BC=4, AC=5.
Use the equation for a circle: ( x - h )² + ( y - k )² = r², where ( h, k ) is the center and r is the radius.
As the directions specify, the radius is AC, so it makes sense to use the coordinates of A (-1,-2) as the center. h is -1, k is -2 The radius 5, squared becomes 25.
Substituting those values, we have (x -[-1])² + (y -[-2])² = 25 .
When substituted for h, the -(-1) becomes +1 and the -(-2) for k becomes +2.
We end up with the equation for the circle as specified:
(x+1)²+(y+1)² = 25
A graph of the circle is attached. I still need to learn how to define line segments; the radius is only the segment of the line between the center (-1,-2) and (1,3)
Carrie can inspect a case of watches in 5 hours.James can inspect the same case of watches in 3 hours.After working alone for 1 hour,Carrie stops for lunch.After taking a 40 minute lunch break,Carrie and James work together to inspect the remaining watches.How long do Carrie and James work together to complete the job?
Will mark brainlist if it correct and well explained
Answer:
It takes Carrie and James an hour and a half to finish the job.
Step-by-step explanation:
assuming they have to inspect ONE case of watches.
Carrie can inspect 1/5 case in one hour.
James can inspect 1/3 case in one hour.
Carrie worked alone for 1 hour, so she finished 1/5 of a case.
She leaves 4/5 case to finish.
She had lunch.
After that, Carrie and James worked together for x hours to finish the job.
When they work together, the finish 1/5+1/3 = 8/15 case per hour.
So time to finisher the remaining case
Time = 4/5 / (8/15)
= 4/5 * 15/8
= 3/2 hours
= an hour and a half.

The mean one-way commute to work in Chowchilla is 7 minutes. The standard deviation is 2.4 minutes, and the population is normally distributed. What is the probability of randomly selecting one commute time and finding that: a). P (x < 2 mins) _____________________________ b). P (2 < x < 11 mins) _____________________________ c). P (x < 11 mins) ________________________________ d). P (2 < x < 5 mins) _______________________________ e). P (x > 5 mins)
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The mean (μ) one-way commute to work in Chowchilla is 7 minutes. The standard deviation (σ) is 2.4 minutes.
The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
a) For x < 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 2) = P(z < -2.08) = 0.0188 = 1.88%
b) For x = 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
For x = 11:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{11-7}{2.4} =1.67[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(2 < x < 11) = P(-2.08 < z < 1.67 ) = P(z < 1.67) - P(z < -2.08) = 0.9525 - 0.0188 = 0.9337
c) For x = 11:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{11-7}{2.4} =1.67[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 11) = P(z < 1.67) = 0.9525
d) For x = 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
For x = 5:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{5-7}{2.4} =-0.83[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(2 < x < 5) = P(-2.08 < z < -0.83 ) = P(z < -0.83) - P(z < -2.08) = 0.2033- 0.0188 = 0.1845
e) For x = 5:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{5-7}{2.4} =-0.83[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 5) = P(z < -0.83) = 0.2033

Answer:
inverse = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / (2log(4)), or
c. y = ( log_4(x+4) + 1 ) / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find inverse of
y = 4^(-6x+5) / 4^(-8x+6) - 4
Exchange x and y and solve for y.
1. exchange x, y
x = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6) - 4
2. solve for y
x = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6) - 4
transpose
x+4 = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6)
using the law of exponents
x+4 = 4^( (-6y+5) - (-8y+6) )
simplify
x+4 = 4^( 2y - 1 )
take log on both sides
log(x+4) = log(4^( 2y - 1 ))
apply power property of logarithm
log(x+4) = (2y-1) log(4)
Transpose
2y - 1 = log(x+4) / log(4)
transpose
2y = log(x+4) / log(4) + 1 = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / log(4)
y = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / (2log(4))
Note: if we take log to the base 4, then log_4(4) =1, which simplifies the answer to
y = ( log_4(x+4) + 1 ) / 2
which corresponds to the third answer.
A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a play at a theatre that has 2000 seats. The students filled 65% of the seats in the theatre. How many 6th graders went on the trip?
Answer: 1,300 students went on the trip
Step-by-step explanation: So we know that 65% filled the seats so let's turn that into a fraction. [tex]\frac{65}{100}[/tex] . Now we know that there are 2,000 seats in total so let's put that into a fraction. [tex]\frac{x}{2,000}[/tex] The x represents the students that went on the trip.
[tex]\frac{65}{100} = \frac{x}{2,000}[/tex] we have to cross multiply
65(2,000) = 100 (x)
130,000 = 100 (x)
130,000 ÷ 100
1,300 = x So now we know that 1,300 went to the trip students

The value 4 is a lower bound for the zeros of the function shown below.
f(x) = 4x^3 – 12x^2 – x + 15
A) True
B) False
Answer:
False roots are x = -1 or x = 5/2 or x = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
4 x^3 - 12 x^2 - x + 15 = 0
The left hand side factors into a product with three terms:
(x + 1) (2 x - 5) (2 x - 3) = 0
Split into three equations:
x + 1 = 0 or 2 x - 5 = 0 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides:
x = -1 or 2 x - 5 = 0 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Add 5 to both sides:
x = -1 or 2 x = 5 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Divide both sides by 2:
x = -1 or x = 5/2 or 2 x - 3 = 0
Add 3 to both sides:
x = -1 or x = 5/2 or 2 x = 3
Divide both sides by 2:
Answer: x = -1 or x = 5/2 or x = 3/2
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x³ - 12x² - x + 15
Set output to 0.
Factor the function.
0 = (x + 1)(2x - 3)(2x - 5)
Set factors equal to 0.
x + 1 = 0
x = -1

A total of $10,000 is invested in two mutual funds. The first account yields 5% and the second account yields 6%. How much was invested in each account if the total interest earned in a year is $575?
Answer:
$2,500 was invested in the first account while $7,500 was invested in the second account
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we want to find the amount which was invested in each of the accounts, given their individual interest rates and the total amount that was accorded as interest from the two investments
Now, since we do not know the amount invested , we shall be representing them with variables.
Let the amount invested in the first account be $x and the amount invested in the second account be $y
Since the total amount invested is $10,000, this means that the summation of both gives $10,000
Mathematically;
x + y = 10,000 ••••••(i)
now for the $x, we have an interest rate of 5%
This mathematically translates to an interest value of 5/100 * x = 5x/100
For the $y, we have an interest rate of 6% and this mathematically translates to a value of 6/100 * y= 6y/100
The addition of both interests, gives 575
Thus mathematically;
5x/100 + 6y/100 = 575
Multiplying through by 100, we have
5x + 6y = 57500 •••••••••(ii)
From 1, we can have x = 10,000-y
let’s substitute this into equation ii
5(10,000-y) + 6y = 57500
50,000-5y + 6y = 57500
50,000 + y = 57500
y = 57500-50,000
y = 7,500
Recall;
x = 10,000-y
so we have;
x = 10,000-7500 = 2,500

Solve the right triangle given that mA =30°, mC = 90° and a = 15. Then round your result to ONE decimal place
Answer:
m∠B = 60°
b = 26 units
c = 30 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle ACB,
By applying Sine rule,
[tex]\frac{\text{SinA}}{a}=\frac{\text{SinB}}{b}=\frac{SinC}{c}[/tex]
m∠A = 30°, m∠C = 90°
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
30° + m∠B + 90° = 180°
m∠B = 180° - 120°
m∠B = 60°
Therefore, [tex]\frac{\text{Sin30}}{15}=\frac{\text{Sin90}}{c}=\frac{\text{Sin60}}{b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30}=\frac{\text{Sin90}}{c}=\frac{\text{Sin60}}{b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30} =\frac{1}{c}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{c}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30} =\frac{1}{c}[/tex] ⇒ c = 30 units
[tex]\frac{1}{30}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2b}[/tex]
b = 15√3

Question 4. In the graph, lines f and g intersect at P(6,6). What is the area, in square units, of the shaded region? * E. 15 F. 21 G. 27 H. 30
Answer:
E
Step-by-step explanation:
i guess the dotted lines outline a square
so get the area of the square which is 6×6=36
then don't focus on the shaded part but unshaded you'll see two right angled triangles
[tex]a = 1 \div2b \times h[/tex]
you will get a total for both as 21
then get the area of the square 36-21=15
so the area becomes 15

Answer:
The SAS Postulate
Step-by-step explanation:
SAS means Side-Angle-Side; that is, two sides are equal and an angle between those sides are equal. We're given two sides: TK and TL, and we're given that 1 is congruent to 2. Knowing the latter, we can conclude that the angle between them (let's call it 1.5 for our purposes) will be congruent to itself. Since 1.5 is the angle right in the middle of two congruent sides, our answer is SAS.
Solve the equation and show the solution set on a number line: |x+5|=x+5
Answer: x ≥ -5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's see how the function f(x) = IxI works:
if x ≥ 0, IxI = x
if x ≤ 0, IxI = -x
Notice that for 0, I0I = 0.
Ok, we want that:
|x+5| = x+5
Notice that this is equivalent to:
IxI = x
This means that |x+5| = x+5 is only true when:
(x + 5) ≥ 0
from this we can find the possible values of x:
we can subtract 5 to both sides and get:
(x + 5) -5 ≥ 0 - 5
x ≥ -5
So the graph in the number line will be a black dot in x = -5, and all the right region shaded.
something like:
-7__-6__-5__-4__-3__-2__-1__0__1__2__3__4__ ...
If $6a^2 + 5a + 4 = 3,$ then what is the smallest possible value of $2a + 1$?
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation: [tex]6a^2+5a+4=3[/tex]
Subtract 3 from both the sides, we get
[tex]6a^2+5a+1=0[/tex]
Now , we can split 5a as 2a+3a and [tex]2a\times 3a = 6a^2[/tex]
So, [tex]6a^2+5a+1=0\Rightarrow\ 6a^2+2a+3a+1=0[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow\ 2a(3a+1)+(3a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (3a+1)(2a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (3a+1)=0\text{ or }(2a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ a=-\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ or }a=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
At [tex]a=-\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]2a+1=2(-\dfrac{1}{3})+1=-\dfrac{2}{3}+1=\dfrac{-2+3}{3}=\dfrac{1}3{}[/tex]
At [tex]a=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]2a+1=2(-\dfrac{1}{2})+1=-1+1=0[/tex]
Since, [tex]0< \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
Hence, the possible value of 2a+1 is 0.
A car bought for $20,000. Its value depreciates by 10% each year for 3 years. What is the car's worth after3 years?
Answer:
$14,580
Step-by-step explanation:
To start off, 10% of 20,000-one easy way to do this is to multiply 20,000 by 0.1, which is 10% in decimal form
-In doing that, you get 2,000
-Now the question says that the value is depreciated which means it goes down in value, so subtract 2,000 from 20,000 to 18,000
-the value of the car after one year is now $18,000
Now, let's move to the second year. This time find 10% of 18,000
-multiply 18,000 by 0.1 to get 1,800
-since the value is depreciating, or becoming less, we will subtract 1,800 from 18,000 to get 16,200
-the value of the car after two years is now $16,200
Finally, let's look at the value of the car after three years. Only this time, we will now find 10% of 16,200
-multiply 16,200 by 0.1 to get 1,620
-since value is being depreciated, or lessened, we will once again be subtracting. Subtract 1,620 from 16,200 to get 14,580
Therefore, the value of the car after three years is now $14,580.
