A flag pole 18 feet tall casts a shadow 12 feet long at a specific time of day. Find, to the nearest degree, the angle of elevation of the sun at this time of day.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

56°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of flagpole = 18

Length of shadow = 12

The angle of elevation of tbe sun at the time of the day = θ

Uding trigonometry :

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan θ = height of flagpole / length of shadow

Tan θ = 18 / 12

Tan θ = 1.5

θ = tan^-1 (1.5)

θ = 56.309

θ = 56° (nearest degree)

what is the slope intercept form of the equation of the line?

Answers

Answer:

The slope-intercept form of the equation of the line is:

y = 2/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

m is the slopeb is the y-intercept

Given the points

(0, 2)(3, 4)

(x₁, y₁) = (0, 2)

(x₂, y₂) = (3, 4)

Using the formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

               =  [4 - 2] / [3 - 0]

               = 2 / 3

Thus, the slope of the line = m = 2/3

We know that the value of the y-intercept can be determined by setting x = 0 and determining the corresponding value of y.

From the graph, it is clear

at x = 0, y = 2

Thus, the y-intercept b = 2

now substituting m = 2/3 and b = 2 in the slope-intercept form

y = mx+b

y = 2/3x + 2

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line is:

y = 2/3x + 2

Ahmed wrote two numbers.The first number has 7 in it's tenth place.The second number has a 7 with a value that's 1,000 times greater than the value of the 7 in the first number.

This is how we can represent it:

*The symbol 'x' represents the numbers that we don't know.

The first 'x' has a place value of ones.

The second 'x' has a place value of tens.

Find the general solution of
dy/dx + 2y =6​

Answers

Answer:

ye^(2x) - 3e^(2x) = C or (y - 3)e^(2x) = C

Step-by-step explanation:

dy/dx + 2y = 6

This is a first order linear ODE.

p(x) = 2

Integrating factor: I(x) = e^(∫ 2 dx) = e^(2x)

e^(2x)(dy/dx + 2y) = 6e^(2x)

e^(2x) dy + 2ye^(2x) dx = 6e^(2x) dx

Integrate both sides of the equation.

ye^(2x) = 3e^(2x) + C

Thus, the general solution is ye^(2x) - 3e^(2x) = C or (y - 3)e^(2x) = C.

At the market, Meyer buys a bunch of bananas for $0.50 per pound and a frozen pizza for $6. The total for his purchase was $8.50.
Which equation can be used to determine how many pounds p of bananas Meyer bought?
A) 0.5p - 6 = 8.50
OB) 0.5p + 6 = 8.50
O C) 6p - 0.5 = 8.50
OD) 6p + 0.5 = 8.50

Answers

Answer:

B) 0.5p + 6 = 8.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If bananas cost $0.50 per pound, you would have to multiply that by how many pounds Meyer bought, or p. When you found how many bananas Meyer bought, you would have to add the money for the frozen pizza ($6) That will give you a total of $8.50.

Answer:

5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the value of 0.5p so our equation is:

8.5 - 6 = 2.5

Then we need to find the value of p in that 2.5, so our equation is:

2.5 ÷ 0.5 = 5

So Meyer bought 5 pounds of bananas

Costs

Carpentry costs:

15*2*x  +  15*2,5*y    =  30*x  +  37,5*y

Painting costs

12*1,5*x  +  12*1*y      =  18*x  +  12*y

Finishing costs

18*1,3*x  +  18*1,2*y    = 23,4*x  + 21,6*y

Total costs:

30*x  + 37,5*y + 18*x  + 12*y  + 23,4*x  + 21,6*y

71,4*x  +  71,1*y

Subject to:

First constraint:

2*x  +  2,5*y ≤  3000

Second constraint

Hours available in painting  1500

1,5*x  +  1*y  ≤   1500

Third constraint

1,3*x  +  1,2*y  ≤ 1500

Fourth constraint

We, wants to maximize the total weekly profit.

What is the meaning of constraints?

a constraint is a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy.

Objective function:  z

x =  number of contemporary style

y = number of farmhouse style

We have to find the cost

The carpentry costs is,

15*2*x  +  15*2,5*y    = 30*x  +  37,5*y

The painting costs is

12*1,5*x  +  12*1*y      =  18*x  +  12*y

The finishing costs is

18*1,3*x  +  18*1,2*y    = 23,4*x  + 21,6*y

Therefore the total costs is,

30*x  + 37,5*y + 18*x  + 12*y  + 23,4*x  + 21,6*y

71,4*x  +  71,1*y

z  =  90*x  +  85*y - ( 71,4*x  +  71,1*y )   to maximize

z  = 18,6*x  +  13,9*y  to maximize

Subject to the constraint;

The first constraint is,

The hours available in carpentry   3000

2*x  +  2,5*y ≤  3000

The second constraint is,

Hours available in painting  1500 so,

1,5*x  +  1*y  ≤   1500

The third constraint is,

Hours available in finishing  1500 so,

1,3*x  +  1,2*y  ≤ 1500

Fourth constraint is,

The minimum quantity of contemporary style  500 so,

x ≥  500

The fifth constraint is

The minimum quantity of farmhouse style   650 so,

y  ≥  650

The general constraints are,

x  ≥  0     y  ≥  0   x , y integers,

Therefore the Model z  =   90*x  +  85*y - ( 71,4*x  +  71,1*y )   to maximize,

Subject to

2*x  +  2,5*y ≤  3000

1,5*x  +  1*y  ≤   1500

1,3*x  +  1,2*y  ≤ 1500

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the candidate score is 600 or greater

P(X≥ 600 ) = 0.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given mean of the Population = 500

Given standard deviation of the Population = 50

Let 'X' be the random variable in normal distribution

Given  X = 600

[tex]Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{600-500}{50} = \frac{100}{50} =2[/tex]

The probability that the candidate score is 600 or greater

P(X≥ 600 ) = P(z≥2)

                  = 0.5 - A(2)

                 = 0.5 -0.4772
