Mr. Smith is flying his single-engine plane at an altitude of 2400 feet. He sees a cornfield at an angle of depression of 30º. What is his horizontal distance to the cornfield?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Height of the fighter plane =1.5km=1500 m

Speed of the fighter plane, v=720km/h=200 m/s

Let be the angle with the vertical so that the shell hits the plane. The situation is shown in the given figure.

Muzzle velocity of the gun, u=600 m/s

Time taken by the shell to hit the plane =t

Horizontal distance travelled by the shell =u

x

t

Distance travelled by the plane =vt

The shell hits the plane. Hence, these two distances must be equal.

t=vt

Sin θ=v/u

=200/600=1/3=0.33

θ=Sin

(0.33)=19.50

In order to avoid being hit by the shell, the pilot must fly the plane at an altitude (H) higher than the maximum height achieved by the shell for any angle of launch.

A high school play is sold tickets to their performance and wanted to see how many tickets were adults (x) and how many were students (y). There were 50 more adult tickets sold compared to student tickets. Adult tickets were $5, student tickets were $2, and they collected a total of $950. Write 2 equations and solve this system.

Answers

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation are x = y + 50  and 5x + 2y = 950

Firstly, let x represent the number of adult tickets sold and let y represent the number of student tickets sold.

Since there was 50 more adult tickets sold compared to student tickets, hence this statement can be represented by the equation:

x = y + 50 (1)

Also, they collected a total of $950. Each adult ticket was $5 while female ticket was $2, hence:

5x + 2y = 950     (2)

5(y + 50) + 2y = 950

y = 100

x = 100 + 50

x = 150

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously gives y = 100 and x = 150

Therefore they was 150 adult tickets and 100 student tickets

Find AC please, help is very much appreciated.

Answers

Answer:

AC ≈ 67.9

Step-by-step explanation:

15² = 9 (3x + 1 + 9)

225 = 9 (3x + 10)

225 = 27x + 90

135 = 27x

x ≈ 19.29

AC = (3x + 1 + 9)

AC = 3 (19.2857...) + 1 + 9

AC = 57.857... + 1 + 9

AC =  57.857... + 10

Find the value of x.

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

We see that this is a right angle, which means the entire angle is equal to 90.

We can find what x is by adding this expression and 44 and equaling it to 90.

90 = x + 9 + 44

90 = x + 53

37 = x

The value of x is 37.

A prop for the theater club's play is constructed as a cone topped with a half-sphere. What is the volume of
the prop? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch. Use 3.14 to approximate pi. Complete
sentences

Answers

Answer:

Volume of the prop = 706.5 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the prop given in the picture = Volume of hemisphere + Volume of the cone

Volume of the hemisphere = [tex]\frac{2}{3}\pi r^{3}[/tex]

where 'r' = radius of the hemisphere

For r = 5 in,

Volume of the hemisphere = [tex]\frac{2}{3}(3.14)(5)^{3}[/tex]

                                             = 261.67 in³

Volume of a cone = [tex]\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h[/tex]

Here r = radius of the circular base

h = height of the cone

For 'r' = 5 in and h  17 in.

Volume of the cone = [tex]\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(5)^2(17)[/tex]

                                  = 444.83 in³

Volume of the prop = 261.67 + 444.83

                                 = 706.5 in³

Chris has 7/8 yards of purple ribbon and one whole one over 6 yards of ribbon Chris has a total of three holes to over 3 yards of ribbon how many yards of Chris's ribbon are neither purple nor green

Answers

Complete question :

Chris has 7/8 yards of purple ribbon and 1 1/6 yards of green ribbon. Chris has a total of 3 2/3 yards of ribbon. How many yards of Chris's ribbon are neither purple nor green.

Answer:

1.625 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Purple ribbon = 7/8 yards

Green ribbon = 1 1/6 yards = 7/6 yards

Total ribbon = 3 2/3 yards = 11/3 yards

Ribbon that is neither purple nor green :

Total ribbon - (green + purple ribbon)

7/8 - (7/6 + 7/8)

11/3 - (28 + 21) / 24

11/3 - 49/24

= 1.625 yards

How do you find the circumference of a circle? Please include an example if you’d like.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug the given value of the diameter into the formula and solve.[2]

Example problem: You have a circle tub with a diameter of 8 feet, and you want to build a white fence that creates a 6-foot wide space around the tub. To find the circumference of the fence that has to be created, you should first find the diameter of the tub and the fence which will be 8 feet + 6 feet + 6 feet, which will account for the entire diameter of the tub and fence. The diameter is 8 + 6 + 6, or 20 feet. Now plug it into the formula, plug π into your calculator for its numerical value, and solve for the circumference:

C = πd

C = π x 20

C = 62.8 feet

write the recurring decimal 0.25656565656 as a fraction in its simplest form

Answers

Answer:

127/495

Step-by-step explanation:

Turning repeating decimals into fractions is a little like surgery: you need to make sure to "cut out" just the right part to let you simplify. In this case, it'd be very nice if we could deal with that repeating 0...565656... part. Let's start by giving our decimal a name:

[tex]x=0.25656...[/tex]

We're gonna split this into two parts: a number we can operate on, and "knife" to make the incision. For both, we'd like the only part to the right of the decimal to be the repeating part. To make our "knife," we'll multiply both sides of the equation by 10:

[tex]10x=2.5656...[/tex]

To make the number we'll be cutting from, we can shift the decimal point by any multiple of two more to the right. I'll keep things simple and stick with 2. This corresponds to multiplying the "knife" equation by 100 on both sides:

[tex]1000x=256.5656...[/tex]

Surgery time! To cut out the repeating bit, we can now just subtract the "knife" equation from the one above:

[tex]1000x-10x=256.5656...-2.5656...\\990x=254[/tex]

And just like that, it's gone! All that's left to do now is divide both sides by 990 and simplify:

[tex]x=254/990=127/495[/tex]

The American Quarter Horse is the most popular riding horse in the world. The average weight of an American Quarter Horse at birth is 85 pounds. They grow to a maximum weight of 1300 pounds. Write and solve an inequality to find how many pounds an American Quarter Horse may gain from birth to adulthood.

From the question, we are informed that the average weight of an American Quarter Horse at birth is 85 pounds and that they grow to a maximum weight of 1300 pounds.

The inequality to calculate the amount of pounds that an American Quarter Horse may gain from birth to adulthood will be the difference between it's maximum weight and weight at birth. This will be:

= 1300 - 85.

= 1215 pounds

n + 13 = 52

Answers

Answer:

N = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

N + 13 = 52

-13. -13

N = 39

Answer:

n = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

To find what n equals, I want to get it alone on one side of the equation.

To do this, I move 13 to the right side of the equation by subtracting 13 from both sides.

13-13=0 so n is the only value on the left side

52-13=39.

You are now left with n = 39

To check that this is right, add 13 to 39. It equals 52, so you know the answer you found is correct.

We are painting a rectangular wall of a large room. The dimensions of the wall are 35feet long and 21.5 feet wide. If the total cost of the paint was 421.40 what was the cost in dollars of the paint rounded to the nearest cent

Answers

Answer:

56 cent per ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Wall dimension = 35 feets * 21.5 feets

Total cost of paint used = 421.40

Area of wall = Area of rectangle = Length * width

Area of wall = 35 feets * 21.5 feets

Area of wall = 752.5 ft²

Cost of paint per square feet:

Total coast of paint / Area of wall

$421.40 / 752.5 ft²

= $0.56 per ft²

= 0.56 * 100 = 56
