a 130 foot tall building has a shadow that is 4 feet long. what is the angle of elevation of the sun? round to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

The angle of elevation of the sun is 18°.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

A 130 foot tall building has a shadow that is 400 feet long (this is the correct question).

Now, let's take the angle of elevation of the sun to be x°.

Now, the height of the building will become perpendicular and the shadow will serve as the base for the angle of elevation.

We will use the trigonometric function tan.

Tan x = Perpendicular/base

Tan x = 130/400

Tan x = 0.325

Now, the value of x is 18°.

Hence, the angle of elevation of the sun is 18°.

If Danny wants to buy the new sci-fi book for $15.75. Some of the books were signed by the author, and those cost an additional 60%. Then  new selling price for a signed sci-fi book is $25.52

What is Percentage?

Percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.

Given,

Danny wants to buy the new sci-fi book for $15.75.

Some of the books were signed by the author, and those cost an additional 60%

We need to calculate 60% of 15.75

Change 60% to decimal value by dividing with 100

60/100=0.6

Now multiply 0.6 with 15.75 to find 60% of 15.75

0.6×15.75

9.45

So 9.45 is the cost of books.

Add 15.75 with 60% amount

$15.75+$9.45

$25.52

Hence the new selling price for a signed sci-fi book is $25.52

What is function?

An association between each element of a non-empty set A and at least one element of a different non-empty set B is called a function. In mathematics, a function is defined as a relation f between a set A (the function's domain) and a set B (its co-domain). f = (a,b)| for all values of a A and b B. Every element of set A must have exactly one image in set B for a relation to be considered a function. A relation from a non-empty set B is called a function if it has the property that no two separate ordered pairs in f have the same first element.  

Here the given function is ,

=> f(x)=[tex]x^2[/tex]-2x+3

Now put x= 1 then

=> f(1) = [tex]1^2[/tex]-2(1)+3

Minstrel incurred a factory payroll of $150,000, of which $40,000 was indirect labor. Minstrel uses a predetermined overhead application rate of 150% of direct labor cost. If minstrel incurred total overhead costs of $167,800 during the month, compute the amount of under- or overapplied overhead:.

Answers

If Minstrel Manufacturing incurred total overhead costs of $167,800 during the month, the underapplied overhead was $2,800.

What is underapplied overhead?

Underapplied overhead arises when the applied overhead is less than the actual overhead incurred.

On the other hand, overapplied overhead suggests that the applied overhead is more than the actual overhead incurred.

Overhead application is the allocation of overhead costs to units of products or jobs using a predetermined application rate.

Predetermined overhead application rate = 150% of direct labor cost

Direct labor cost = $110,000 ($150,000 - $40,000)

Applied overhead = $165,000 ($110,000 x 150%)

Actual overhead = $167,800

Underapplied overhead = $2,800 ($165,000 - $167,800)

Thus, during the month, the company underapplied overhead by $2,800.

The store's profit on the video game is $35.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

Elsie bought a video game for $85.00. And the store charges 170% of its cost for the game.

Now, let's take the original price of the video game to be $x.

So, we have the following expression:

170% of x = 85

170x/100 = 85

Using the cross multiplication method:

170x = 85*100

x = 8500/170

x = 50

So, we have the cost of the video game.

Now, we know that the formula to find the profit is as follows:

Profit = Selling price - cost of the product

Profit = $(85-50)

Profit = $35

Given, a group of 234 students are going to see a thanksgiving parade, traveling in 4 busses and 3 vans.

Each bus holds 6 more than 3 times a number a van can hold.

Let the van holds 'x' students

then, bus holds 6 + 3x students

Now, according to the question

4(6 + 3x) + 3x = 234

24 + 12x + 3x = 234

24 + 15x = 234

15x = 234 - 24

15x = 210

x = 210/15

x = 14

So, bus holds 6 + 3x students

= 6 + 3(14)

= 6 + 42

= 48

Hence, 48 students can fit in one bus.
