zack is standing at the top of a lookout tower and spotsa a water fountain below. if the lookout tower is 75 feet tall and the angle of depression is 28 what is the horizontal distance between zack and the water fountain

Answers

Answer 1

The horizontal distance between Zack and the water fountain is approximately 141.1 feet.

To find the horizontal distance between Zack and the water fountain, we can use trigonometry.

The tangent function relates the angle of depression (\(\theta\)) to the opposite side (height of the tower, \(h\)), and the adjacent side (horizontal distance, \(d\)):

[tex]\[ \tan(\theta) = \frac{h}{d} \][/tex]

Given:

Height of the tower = 75 feet

Angle of depression  = 28°

We rearrange the formula to solve for \(d\):

[tex]\[ d = \frac{h}{\tan(\theta)} \]\[ d = \frac{75}{\tan(28°)} \]Calculating \(\tan(28°)\), and then the distance \(d\):\[ \tan(28°) = 0.531 \]\[ d = \frac{75}{0.531} \]\[ d = 141.1 \][/tex]

So, the horizontal distance between Zack and the water fountain is approximately 141.1 feet.

Three runners are jogging from North Augusta to Beech Island. Runner 1 runs 14 miles in 3 hours while .Runner 2 runs 16 miles in 4 hours. Runner 3 runs 15 miles in 6 hours. What is the average speed of each runner?

Answers

Answer:

Runner 1,2 and 3 ran at a average speed of 4.67 , 4 and 2.5 miles per hour respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

We can all agree that speed equals distance divided by time and we are asked to find out the average speed of this 3 people.

---Average speed of runner 1

Speed = distance / time

Since he ran 14 miles within 3 hours

S = 14/3

The average speed was 4.67 miles pet hour

---For runner 2,

Speed = distance / time

Since he ran 16 miles in 4 hours,

Average speed = 16/4

= 4 miles per hour

---For runner 3,

Speed = distance / time

Since he ran 15 miles under 6 hours,

Average speed = 15/6

= 2.5 miles per hour

Write the equation of the circle graphed below

Answers

Answer:

[tex](x-1)^2+(y+1)^2=0.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph it is clear that the center of the circle is (1,-1) and the circle passing through the point (0.5,-1).

So, radius of the circle is  

[tex]r=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]r=\sqrt{(0.5-1)^2+(-1-(-1))^2}[/tex]

[tex]r=\sqrt{(-0.5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]r=\sqrt{(0.5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]r=0.5[/tex]

The radius of the circle is 0.5 units.

The standard form of a circle is  

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

where, (h,k) is center and r is radius.

The center of given circle is (1,-1) and radius is 0.5. So, the equation of circle is

[tex](x-(1))^2+(y-(-1))^2=(0.5)^2[/tex]

[tex](x-1)^2+(y+1)^2=0.25[/tex]

Therefore, the required equation is [tex](x-1)^2+(y+1)^2=0.25[/tex].

d = C/pi

d = 44/3.14

d = 14.01 approximately

d = 14 also approximate

take half of this to get the radius

r = d/2 = 14/2 = 7

Final answer:

The equation that represents the given verbal statement is 6 + 2(x + 4) = ½(3 − x), which translates the words into algebraic expressions and sets them equal as per the statement.

Explanation:

The correct equation to represent "six added to twice the sum of a number and four is equal to one-half of the difference of three and the number" is:

6 + 2(x + 4) = ½(3 − x)

Let's break down the statement and turn it into an equation step by step:

Six added to indicates we start with a six and add something to it.Twice the sum of a number (x) and four is written as 2(x + 4).Finally, is equal to one-half of the difference of three and the number translates to ½(3 − x).

Putting it all together, we get the equation above, which correctly represents the given verbal statement.

Given the function defined in the table below, find the average rate of change, in

Answers

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change, in simplest form, of the function over the interval 1 < x < 5 is 18.

Find the average rate of change?

The average rate of change is the change in the slope of the function, it is given by the formula,

[tex]\text{Average rate of change} = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Given to us

y₂ = f(x₂) = 27

x₂ = 3

y₁ = f(x₁) = 9

x₁ = 2

Substitute the values in the formula,

[tex]\text{Average rate of change} = \dfrac{27-9}{3-2} = 18[/tex]
