A man standing near a radio station antenna observes that the angle of elevation to the top of the antenna is 64 He then walks 68 feet further away and observes that the angle of elevation to the top of the antenna is 43 Find the height of the antenna to the nearest foot.

Answers

Answer 1

The height of the radio station antenna is approximately 116 feet to the nearest foot.

From the diagram in the attached image

[tex]h=\text{the height of the radio station antenna}\\x=\text{the distance from the foot of the radio station antenna to where the man stood at first}[/tex]

we now have the following relationships

[tex]tan64^\circ=\frac{h}{x}\\\\\implies x=\frac{h}{tan64^\circ}[/tex]

and

[tex]tan43^\circ=\frac{h}{68+x}\\\\\implies x=\frac{h}{tan43^\circ}-68[/tex]

we can equate the two relationships to eliminate [tex]x[/tex].

[tex]\frac{h}{tan64^\circ}=\frac{h}{tan43^\circ}-68[/tex]

solving for the height of the radio station antenna, [tex]h[/tex], we get

[tex]h=\frac{68\times tan43^\circ \times tan64^\circ}{tan64^\circ -tan43^\circ}\approx 116ft\text{ (to the nearest foot)}[/tex]

The ratio of boys to girls at a party was 6:7 if there were 28 girls how many people attended the party

Answers

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

6+7=13

6:7=13

x:28

28/7=4

so you have to multiply by 4

4x6=24

24 boys and 28 girls

24+28=52

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets put the ratio like this: 6x (boys) : 7x (girls)

because we know that the amount of girls is 28 we can set them equal as so:

7x = 28

÷ divide both sides by 7

x = 4

now add 6x + 7x to get the total people = 13x and because x equals 4, we can multiply 13 by 4. Which is 52

What happens to the decimal point when we multiply a whole number by 100?

Answers

There is a similar shortcut for multiplying decimal numbers by numbers such as 10, 100, and 1000: Move the decimal point to the right as many places as there are zeros in the factor. Move the decimal point one step to the right (10 has one zero). Move the decimal point two steps to the right (100 has two zeros).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply a decimal by 100, move the decimal point in the multiplicant by two places to the right. Here we multiplied the number 98.26 by 100 so we move 2 places to the right. 3. To multiply a decimal by 1000, move the decimal point in the multiplicant by three places to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

2 things to remember for problems like this :

the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.

the law of sines :

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C) or upside-down (whatever fuss the situation better), with the sides being always opposite of the angles.

so, now for the given problems :

4.

x/sin(90) = 12/sin(29)

x/1 = x = 12/sin(29) = 24.75198408...

rounded x = 24.8

5.

the opposite angle of x is

180 - 90 - 16 = 74 degrees.

x/sin(74) = 37/sin(90) = 37

x = 37×sin(74) = 35.56668275...

rounded x = 35.6

6.

the opposite angle of x is

180 - 90 - 58 = 32 degrees.

x/sin(32) = 22/sin(58)

x = 22×sin(32)/sin(58) = 13.74712574...

rounded x = 13.7

7.

the opposite angle of 15 is

180 - 90 - 51 = 39 degrees.

x/sin(51) = 15/sin(39)

x = 15×sin(51)/sin(39) = 18.52345735...

rounded x = 18.5

Answer:

[tex]y= -3x+9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily see from the graph that the equation intersecs the x-axis at p=3 and the y-axis at q=9. Now there is a trick to quickly write the equation in these situations, and it is

[tex]\frac xp + \frac yq = 1[/tex] where p and q are the length of the segments (with their sign!!) the line cuts from the origin.

At this point, it's just a matter of writing the equation in the wanted form:

[tex]\frac x3 + \frac y9 =1\\9\frac x3 + y = 9\\y= -3x+9[/tex]

Which is the equation you want.

If you prefer a more traditional approach, you can determine the slope right away by noticing that when the y coordinate moves from 9 to 0, ie it decreases by 9, the x coordinate goes from 0 to 3, and the slope is [tex]m= {\Delta y \over \Delta x} = {{-9}\over{3}} = -3[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming the tank starts empty. It means that in 1 hour the tank has half that water, or 3600 gallons. And the good thing of lines passing through 0.0 is that the value at 1 IS the slope we need. ie 3600.

At this point it's easy to find that if in 2 hours it filled 1/10th of the tank, in 20 hours the tank will be full.

Why does Kamkwamba begin with the day the windmill first generated electricity?

Answers

The kind of text structure that was utilized by William Kamkwamba in the story, "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind" is the Sequential text structure.

William Kwakwamba began with the day the windmill first generated electricity because it was remarkable and is, therefore, the first detail to note in the story.

To understand why this is the right text structure, we need to first understand what text structure is and the characteristics of a sequential structure.

What is Text Structure?

Text structure refers to the organization of writing to convey intended meanings.

The sequential text structure follows these processes:

It is a step-by-step account of the events in the story.It can be identified by words such as first, then, and finally.

Thus given these explanations of what the sequential text structure is, we can classify the excerpt from William Kamkwamba's "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind" as sequential.
