A surveyor is 40m from the edge of a building. The angle of elevation from the surveyor to the top of the building is 55° . What is the height of the building?
Answers
Answer:
Height of building is 57.12 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us try to understand the given dimensions as per the attached diagram.
Please refer to attached image (Right angled [tex]\triangle OBT[/tex])
with [tex]\angle B =90^\circ[/tex]
Let O be the point where the Surveyor is standing.
B be the point of the base of building.
T be the point of top of building.
As per question statement,
[tex]\angle O = 55^\circ[/tex]
Side OB = 40 m
To find: Side BT = ?
Using tangent trigonometric identity:
[tex]tan\theta =\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]
[tex]tanO =\dfrac{BT}{BO}\\\Rightarrow tan55^\circ = \dfrac{BT}{40}\\\Rightarrow BT = tan55^\circ \times 40\\\Rightarrow BT = 1.43\times 40\\\Rightarrow BT = 57.12 m[/tex]
So, height of building is 57.12 m.

Given the line of best fit for a set of data points with the equation y=5x-2.5, what is the residual for the point (3,6)?
Answers
========================================================
Explanation:
For the x value x = 3, the observed y value is y = 6 which is from the point (3,6).
The predicted y value is found by plugging x = 3 into the line of best fit equation
y = 5x-2.5
y = 5(3)-2.5
y = 12.5
The residual is the difference between the two y values
e = residual
e = (observed y value) - (predicted y value)
e = 6 - 12.5
e = -6.5
The negative residual tells us the observed y value is smaller than the predicted y value for this given x value.
-5(x - 1) = 2x - 7x + 5
Answers
Answer:
This is true! 1x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's rewrite the question again.
-5(x - 1) = 2x - 7x + 5
So we will solve from left to right.
-5(x-1) <- In here, we cannot add a variable to a whole number. So, we simply multiply -5 by x and -1.
-5(x - 1) = -5x+5
2x - 7x + 5 <- Here, we can subtract 2x-7x. They are both variables. But, we cannot add 5 to a variable.
2x - 7x + 5 = -5x+5
Now, here is the equation that we have so far.
-5x+5 = -5x+5
+5x +5x
----------------------
5=5
-5 -5
0=0
So in here, we can have anything. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 100, anything. So, the answer is:

Angela is following this recipe to make biscuits.
Angela uses 1.8 l of syrup.
How much margarine is needed in kg?
Recipe: Makes 10 biscuits
150 g margarine
180 g sugar
225 ml syrup
225 g oats
40 g sultanas
Asapppp
Answers
Answer : The amount of margarine needed is 1 kg.
Step-by-step explanation :
First we have to convert volume of syrup from mL to L.
Conversion used:
1 L = 1000 mL
or, 1 mL = 0.001 L
So, 225 mL = 0.225 L
Now we have to calculate the amount of margarine needed.
As, 0.225 L of syrup needed 150 g of margarine
So, 1.8 L of syrup needed [tex]\frac{1.5L}{0.225L}\times 150 g=1000g[/tex] of margarine
Amount of margarine needed = 1000 g = 1 kg (1 kg = 1000 g)
Therefore, the amount of margarine needed is 1 kg.
Calculate the lateral area of a right prism with a heptagon base side of 4 feet and a
height of 10 feet.
Answers
Answer:
280 ft2
Step-by-step explanation:
The lateral area of this prism consists of seven rectangles, each one with dimensions 4 feet by 10 feet.
The area of one of these rectangles is:
[tex]A = base * height = 4 * 10 = 40\ ft^2[/tex]
Then, the area of the seven rectangles is:
[tex]Lateral\ area = 7*A = 7*40 = 280\ ft^2[/tex]
So the lateral area of this prism is 280 ft2.
Write down in terms of n, an expression for the nth term
of the following sequences:
a) 4 1 -2-5-8
b) -7 -12 -17 -22 -27
Answers
Answer:
a: -3n+1
b:-5n-2
Step-by-step explanation:
a: it is -3+1 because you can see that the sequence is going down by 3, so it is the 3 times table, but because the number is 4, and 4 is 1 more than 3, you put plus one at the end. :)
b: similar to the last, it's going down by five, but it is two less this time, so you put minus two instead.

Answer:
20 red sweets
Step-by-step explanation:
do two thirds of 30 and the part that cane out is the red sweets
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum the parts of the ratio, 2 + 3 = 5 parts
Divide the number of sweets by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio
30 ÷ 5 = 6 sweets ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus
2 × 6 = 12 ← number of red sweets

The total length of 2 pieces of rope is
108cm. If one piece is 18cm shorter, what is
the length of the longer piece?
Answers
Answer:
63 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
piece 1: x
piece 2: x - 18
First you would subtract 2x - 18 = 108
Second you would add 108 + 18 = 2x
Third you would divide 126 divided by 2x = 63
So that would mean x = 63
Answer:
63cm
Step-by-step explanation:
2 pieces of rope, and one is shorter by 18cm.
piece 1: x
piece 2: x-18
Add the equations together, combine both pieces
2x-18
2x-18 = 108
108+18 = 2x
126 = 2x
x = 63

When we divide the entire equation by -1/2 to get rid of the coefficient of n we get n = 16.
Answer:
D.) 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for n:
-n/2 = -8
Multiply both sides of -n/2 = -8 by -2:
(-2 (-n))/2 = -2 (-8)
-2×(-1)/2 = (-2 (-1))/2:
(-2 (-1))/2 n = -2 (-8)
(-2)/2 = (2 (-1))/2 = -1:
--1 n = -2 (-8)
(-1)^2 = 1:
n = -2 (-8)
-2 (-8) = 16:

Option (3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression in this question represents the partial sum of an infinite geometric series in the sigma notation.
[tex]S_{n}=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}6(2)^{n-1}[/tex]
First term of this series 'a' = 6
Common ratio 'r' = 2
We have to find the sum of 4 terms of this infinite series (n = 4).
Sum of n terms of a geometric series is,
[tex]S_n=\frac{a(r^n-1)}{(r-1)}[/tex]
[tex]S_4=\frac{6(2^4-1)}{(2-1)}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{6(16-1)}{(1)}[/tex]
[tex]=90[/tex]
Therefore, sum of 4 terms of the given series will be 90.

On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 4, 1) and (0, 3). Everything below and to the right of the line is shaded. Which linear inequality is represented by the graph? y ≤ 2x + 4 y ≤ one-halfx + 3 y ≥ One-halfx + 3 y ≥ 2x + 3
Answers
Answer: [tex]y \leq \frac{1}{2} x+3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If a function has a positive slope, that means the y value is increasing with respect to x. As you go down the x-axis, the y value will continuously increase.
First you want to plot the two sets of coords that they gave you, or else you wont know what the line looks like. Or, you could visually do it in your head. We're going down -4 on the x-axis and down 1 on the y-axis. Then for our second coords, we are going to 0 on the x-axis, then up 3 on the y-axis.
You could plot this for yourself, but im going to do it in my head for simplicity. We also need to find the slope of this function in order for us to find the y-intercept. The slope is change in y divided by the change in x. Subtract the initial position from the final position.
3 - 1 = 2
0 - (-4) = 4
2/4 = 1/2
The new equation is:
[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x+b\\plugin(0,3)\\3=\frac{1}{2} (0)+b\\b=3[/tex]
Everything is shaded below and to the right of the line. They said the line was solid, so that means less than or equal to, [tex]\leq[/tex]

so 2a+3b=±13
Step-by-step explanation:
4a²+9b²=97
ab=6
2a+3b=?
by using formula
(a+b)²=a²+b²+2ab
(2a+3b)²=(2a)²+(3b)²+2(2a)(3b)
(2a+3b)²=4a²+9b²+12ab
putting values
(2a+3b)²=97+12(6)
(2a+3b)²=97+72
(2a+3b)²=169
taking square root on both sides
√(2a+3b)²=√169
2a+3b=±13
i hope it will help you
Answer:
2a+3b = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Using this formula
[tex](x+y)^2 = x^2+y^2+2xy[/tex]
Where,
x = 2a and y = 3b
Putting in the above formula
=> [tex](2a+3b)^2=4a^2+9b^2+12ab[/tex]
Putting 4a²+9b² = 97 and ab = 6
=> (2a+3b)² = 97+12(6)
=> (2a+3b)² = 97+72
=> (2a+3b)² = 169
Taking sqrt on both sides
=> 2a+3b = 13
