James is 5 ft. tall and casts a 6.5 ft. shadow. At the same time, a palm tree casts a 26 ft. shadow. How tall is the palm tree?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  20 feet

=====================================================

Work Shown:

(height)/(shadow length) = (height)/(shadow length)

(5 ft)/(6.5 ft) = (x ft)/(26 ft)

5/(6.5) = x/26

5*26 = 6.5*x

130 = 6.5x

6.5x = 130

x = 130/(6.5)

x = 20

The palm tree is 20 feet tall, which is the same height as a 2 story building (assuming each floor is 10 ft).

One of the angles of a triangle is 110° and the other two angles are equal.What is the measure of each of these equal angles?

Answers

Answer:

x = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the one of the other angles

X is also the third angle since we know they are equal

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180

110+x+x = 180

110 +2x= 180

2x = 180-110

2x= 70

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 70/2

x = 35

Answer:

[tex]x = 35 \degree[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown angle be x

Unknown Angles are equal to each other so,

[tex]x + x + 110 = 180[/tex]

sum of the interior angles in a triangle is 180°

[tex]2x + 110 = 180 \\ 2x = 180 - 110 \\ 2x = 70 \\ \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{70}{2} \\ x = 35 \degree[/tex]

Question: "If y > 3, what is the value of n ?"

Answers

Answer:

y-3

Problem:

What is the remainder when the dividend is xy-3, the divisor is y, and the quotient is x-1. ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividend=quotient×divisor+remainder

So we have

xy-3=(x-1)×(y)+remainder

xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder *distributive property

Now we just need to figure out what polynomial goes in for the remainder so this will be a true identity.

We need to get rid of minus y so we need plus y in the remainder.

We also need minus 3 in the remainder.

So the remainder is y-3.

Let's try it out:

xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder

xy-3=(xy-y)+(y-3)

xy-3=xy-3 is what we wanted so we are done here.

find the slope of the tangent line of the curve r = cos (3theta) at theta = pi / 3

Answers

The slope of the tangent line to the curve at a point (x, y) is dy/dx. By the chain rule, this is equivalent to

dy/dθ × dθ/dx = (dy/dθ) / (dx/dθ)

where y = r(θ) sin(θ) and x = r(θ) cos(θ). Then

dy/dθ = dr/dθ sin(θ) + r(θ) cos(θ)

dx/dθ = dr/dθ cos(θ) - r(θ) sin(θ)

Given r(θ) = cos(3θ), we have

dr/dθ = -3 sin(3θ)

and so

dy/dx = (-3 sin(3θ) sin(θ) + cos(3θ) cos(θ)) / (-3 sin(3θ) cos(θ) - cos(3θ) sin(θ))

When θ = π/3, we end up with a slope of

dy/dx = (-3 sin(π) sin(π/3) + cos(π) cos(π/3)) / (-3 sin(π) cos(π/3) - cos(π) sin(π/3))

dy/dx = -cos(π/3) / sin(π/3)

dy/dx = -cot(π/3) = -1/√3

[tex]a_n=-1-2n+2[/tex] (I just distributed through the parenthesis) and a bit more to

Given the following coordinates complete the reflection transformation.​

Answers

Answer:

For a general point (x, y), a reflection across the line x = a transforms the point into:

(a + (a - x), y) = (2a - x, y)

So if we first do a reflection across the line x = 1, the new point will be:

(2*1 - x, y) = (2 - x, y)

And if we now do a reflection across the line x = 3, the new point will be:

(2*3 - (2 - x), y) = (6 - 2 + x, y) = (4 + x, y)

Now that we have the general formula we can solve the question.

For the point (-5, 2)

The generated point after the reflections is:

(4 + (-5), 2) = (-1, 2)

For the point (-1, 5)

The generated point after the reflections is:

(4 + (-1), 5) = (3, 5)

For the point (0, 3)

The generated point after the reflections is:

(4 +0, 3) = (4, 3)

A group of rowdy teenagers near a wind turbine decide to place a pair of
pink shorts on the tip of one blade. They notice that the shorts are at its
maximum height of 16 metres at t = 10 s and its minimum height of 2 metres at
t = 25 s.

a) Determine the equation of the sinusoidal function that describes
the height of the shorts in terms of time.

b) Determine the height of the shorts at exactly t = 10 minutes, to
the nearest tenth of a metre.

Answers

Answer:

a) Hence the equation of the sinusoidal function that describes the height of the shorts in terms of time is [tex]y = 9 + 7* sin(\pi * t / 15 - \pi / 6)[/tex]

b) Hence the height of the shorts at exactly t = 10 minutes, to

the nearest tenth of a meter is 5.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The wind turbine blade traverses a circular path as it rotates with time (t), whose time variation is given by the following trajectory equation :

[tex]x^2 + (y-yc)^2 = R^2[/tex] ,

where  

R = (16 m - 2 m)/2 (since diameter = maximum height - minimum height of the pink short)

= 14 m / 2

= 7 m (radius of the circle)

Also, center of the circle will be at (0, 2 + R) i.e (0,9)

So,  is the trajectory path equation to the circle

Let [tex]x = 7* cos(w*t + \phi ) & y = 9 + 7* sin(w* t + \phi)[/tex] be the parametric form of the above circle equation which represent the position of the pink shorts at the tip of the blade at time t  

At t= 10s, y = 16 m so we have,

[tex]9 + 7 * sin(10* w + \phi) = 16[/tex] ---------------(1)

Also, at t= 25s, y =2 m so we have,

[tex]9 + 7* sin(25 * w +\phi) = 2[/tex]--------------(2)

Solving we have, [tex]10* w + \phi = \pi/2 & 25*w + \phi = 3*pi/2[/tex]

[tex]15* w = \pi\\\\w = \pi/15 & \phi = \pi/2 - 10*\pi/15 = -\pi / 6[/tex]  

Therefore [tex]y = 9 + 7* sin(\pi * t / 15 - \pi / 6)[/tex] is the instantaneous height of the pink short at time t ( in seconds)

b) At t= 10minutes = 10 * 60 s = 600s, we have,

[tex]y = 9 + 7 * sin(\pi * 600/15 - \pi / 6)\\\\= 9 + 7 * sin(40* \pi - \pi / 6)[/tex]

= 5.5 meters (pink short will be at 5.5 meters above ground level at t= 10 minutes)

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationship between sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.

We have given a graph of a trigonometric function,

As we know, the trigonometric function is sinusoidal in nature, and it has a domain of all real numbers and lies between the [a, a]where is the amplitude of the function.

The trigonometric ratio is defined as the ratio of the pair of a right-angled triangle.

From the graph, the function is increasing from 3π/2 to 2π

The graph slopes upward at that particular segment, indicating that the function is increasing in the interval in A as the x-values increase and the y-values on the graph follow suit.

Thus, the graph of a function is increasing on the interval (3π/2, 2π) option (A) is correct.

Let ∠ A be x. In the ∆ ABC , AB = AC which means they are isosceles triangle and we know the opposite angles of isosceles triangle are equal i.e ∠ A = ∠ C = x.

The sum of angles of a triangle is always 180°. Now , Find out the value of x :

Answer: A. The number 23 is prime, but 36 is composite.

=====================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the possible answer choices

A) This is true because 23 only has the factors 1 and 23. So that's why 23 is prime. We can say 36 is composite since 2 is a factor, ie 36 = 2*18.B) This is false because 33 is not prime. Note how 33 = 3*11, showing that 3 is a factor of 33.C) Similar to B, the statement "21 is prime" is false. Note how 21 = 3*7.D) Like the other false statements, 27 is not prime because 27 = 3*9.

23 is indeed prime, and 36 is indeed composite.

33 is composite, and 42 is indeed composite.

21 is composite, and 25 is composite as well

27 is not prime, and 39 is composite.

Primes have only 2 factors: 1 and themselves.

And 33, 21 and 27 definitely have more than 2 factors. Hope this helps!
