An observation tower is 75 m high. A support wire is attached to the tower 20 m from the top. If the support wire and the ground form an angle of 46 degrees, what is the length of the support wire, to the nearest thousandth?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 76.46 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of tower = 75m

Support wire 20 m from top

Angle formed (α) = 46°

Using Pythagoras :

Sinα = opposite / hypotenus

Height used = height of tower - 20 m from top

Height = opposite = (75 - 20)m = 55m

Hypotenus = Length of support wire

Sin 46 = 55m / hypotenus

Hypotenus * sin 46 = 55

0.71934 * hypotenus = 55

Hypotenus = 55/0.71934

Hypotenus = 76.458976

Hence, Lenght of support wire = 76.46 m

The fuel for a chain saw is a mix of oil and gasoline. The label says to mix 3 ounces of oil with 5 gallons of gasoline. How much oil would you use if you had 120 gallons of gasoline?

Answers

Answer:

120 gallons of gasoline needs 180 ounces of oil

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the label for the chain saw reads to mix 3 ounces of oil with 5 gallons of gasoline, it means we have a ratio of 3 ounces of oil to 5 gallons of gasoline. That is

3 ounces of oil = 5 gallons of gasoline

Using the the unity method, by dividing both sides by 5,

3/5 ounces of oil = 1 gallon of gasoline.

So, for 120 gallons of gasoline, we have

120 × 1gallon of gasoline = 120 × 3/5 ounces of oil

So, 120 gallons of gasoline = 60 × 3 ounces of oil

So, 120 gallons of gasoline = 180 ounces of oil

So, 120 gallons of gasoline needs 180 ounces of oil

Answer:

Try 15,360 gallons or it could be 15,360 oz. one of those I hope it helps a bit. I did 128 times 120 gl. witch gave me 15,360.

The volume of a fish tank is given by the function V(x)=(x+7)(x-4)(x+3). Write a function describing a fish tank that has the same height but is longer in length by 3 units and wider by 2 units.

Answers

Answer:

V(x)=(x+9) * (x-4) * (x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

A fish tank is normally in the shape of a rectangular prism. The volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the following formula

V = w * h * l

where w represents the width, h represents the heigh, l represents the length, and V represents the volume of the rectangular prism/fish tank. Therefore, we can use the function provided in the question and simply add 3 units to the length and 2 units to the width in order for it to work for our new fish tank.

V(x)=(x+9) * (x-4) * (x+6)

The function 56 – 4y = –5x can be used to determine the total amount of money in a coin jar, y, after money isadded for x days. What is the rate of change in dollars with respect to the number of days?

Answers

Answer:

$1.25 dollars per day added to the coin jar

Step-by-step explanation:

the given equation is: 56 – 4y = –5x

we can rewrite it:

4y = 56 + 5x

y = (56 + 5x) / 4

y = 14 + ⁵/₄x

the slope of the equation is ⁵/₄, which gives us how much money is added into the coin jar every day. We can write ⁵/₄ as 1.25 or $1.25 dollars per day added to the coin jar

The values of k that make the given equation having imaginary roots are:

k < -18, or (-∞,-18).

Step-by-step explanation:

Nature of the Roots of a Quadratic Equation

The standard representation of a quadratic equation is:

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

where a,b, and c are constants.

Solving with the quadratic formula:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

The expression:

[tex]d=b^2-4ac[/tex]

Is called the discriminant. The discriminant determines the nature of the roots of a quadratic equation as follows:

If d=0, there is only one real root.

if d>0, there are two different real roots

if d<0, there are two different imaginary (complex) roots

We are given the equation:

[tex]-2x^2+12x+k=0[/tex]

Comparing with the standard quadratic equation, we have:

a=-2, b=12, c=k

Calculating the discriminant:

[tex]d=12^2-4(-2)k[/tex]

[tex]d=144+8k[/tex]

If the equation has imaginary roots, then d<0, thus:

144 + 8k < 0

Subtracting 144:

8k < -144

Dividing by 8:

k < -18

The values of k that make the given equation having imaginary roots are: k < -18, or (-∞,-18).

The slope of a line (gradient) is determined by the rise/run so

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

We simply substitute in our coordinates and solve. So:

(4000 - 3000) / (60 - 40)

= 1000 / 20

= 100/2 = 50

Gradient is 50
