The first tower that you decided to examine was the Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower in Paris, France was part of the 1900 World's Fair. A surveyor set up his transit to measure the angle from the ground to the top of the tower, which was found to be 40 degrees. The distance from the center of the bottom of the tower to the vertex of the 40 degree angle is 202 meters.
How tall is the tower? Round your answer to the nearest full meter.

Answer 1

The triangle in the image is a right triangle. We are given a side and an angle, and asked to find another side. Therefore, we should use a trigonometric function.

Trigonometric Functions: SOH-CAH-TOA

---sin = opposite/hypotenuse, cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse, tangent = opposite/adjacent

In this problem, looking from the angle, we are given the adjacent side and want to find the opposite side. This means we should use the tangent function.

tan(40) = x / 202

x = tan(40) * 202

x = 169.498

x (rounded) = 169 meters

Answer: the tower is 169 meters tall

Hope this helps!

how do you find the x-intercepts if given the following polynomial in factored form?

X(x-2)^2(x+4)(x+1)​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the intercepts occur at x = 0, so set each part of the factored form equal to zero and solve for x.

The first part, plain X = 0, so X = 0 is a root, an x-intercept

The second part (X-2)^2 = 0, so X = 2 is another root. Since the function is being squared, this root will happen twice. The function crosses this root twice.

The third part (x+4) = 0, so x = -4 is another root.

Finally, (x+1) so x = -1 is another root.

So you have X = 0, X = 2, X = -4, X = -1 as your x-intercepts

Tamara finds the sum of two number cubes rolled at the same time. The chart below shows all possible sums from the 36 possible combinations when rolling two number cubes. How many times should Tamara expect the sum of the two cubes be equal to 4 if she rolls the two number cubes 216 ​times?

Answers

Answer:

18 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space ; roll of 2 number cubes = 6^2 = 36

Sum of 4 in 2 cube rolls = 3

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(sum of 4) = 3 / 36 = 1 / 12

If number cube is rolled 216 times :

Probability on 1 roll * Number of rolls

(1 / 12) * 216

0.0833333 * 216

= 18

A square is cut diagonally into two equal parts. If each part has an area of 50 cm^2, then what is the perimeter of each part?

I tried it isn't 30 cm

Answers

Answer:

30cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

When are square is cut diagonally into two parts

The resulting shape is a triangle

hence the area of the square = 50+50 = 100cm^2

The length of each side of the square = √100= 10cm

likewise the diagonal of the square = 10cm

Hence the perimeter of the resulting triangle= 10+10+10= 30cm

Determine the geometric mean of 11 and 8.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sqrt{88}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric mean of 11 and 8 is equal to [tex]\sqrt{88}[/tex].

According to the question it is clear that we have to calculate the geometric mean of two positive numbers 11 and 8.

The geometric mean of two positive numbers a and c is the positive number b in such a way that it satisfies the condition

[tex]\frac{a}{b}=\frac{b}{c}[/tex]

The geometric mean of a and b is √ab if a and b are both positive numbers and it will be −√ab if a and b are negative numbers.

The geometric mean is the positive square root of the product of two numbers.

For a square the geometric mean of two numbers a and b, is the length of one side of a square whose area is equal to the area of a rectangle with the sides of a and b lengths.

If we talk about the n numbers then the geometric mean is the nth root of the product of n numbers. If n positive values are given then the geometric mean is the nth positive root of the product of that n numbers.

So, the geometric mean is equal to [tex]\sqrt{a.b}[/tex]

Here, a = 11 and b = 8

The geometric mean of this is equal to = [tex]\sqrt{11.8}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{88}[/tex]

Desmond spends $800 per month on fixed expenses. Desmond earns $10,00 per hour,
How many hours does Desmond need to work each month to spend 50% of his/her income
on fixed expenses?

Answers

Answer:  160 hours

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

Explanation:

He earns $10.00 an hour. Let x be the number of hours worked in a month. So 10x represents how much he earns after working x hours.

If he spends $800 per month on fixed expenses, and wants this to be 50% of his total earnings, then this must mean that the other 50% is for other things (eg: spending on a vacation or putting it to savings). So his goal is to earn 800+800 = 1600 dollars per month.

Set 10x equal to this and solve for x

10x = 1600

x = 1600/10

x = 160

He needs to work 160 hours a month.

-------------------------------

Extra info:

Divide 160 over 4 (the approximate number of weeks in a month) and we see that he'll need to work 160/4 = 40 hours a week

If he only works Monday through Friday, that's 5 days of the week. So he'll put in 40/5 = 8 hours per day.

So his goal of working 160 hours per month is reasonable. Keep in mind that this doesn't include factors like him missing time from work due to being sick (unless he has paid sick leave).

2(3x-9)=2x+10 what's x

Answers

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x-9)=2x+10

6x - 18 = 2x + 10

4x = 28

x = 7

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of x, isolate it in the equation.

1) First, distribute the 2 to the terms inside the set of parentheses.

[tex]2 (3x - 9) = 2x + 10 \\6x - 18 = 2x + 10 \\[/tex]

2) Next, move all the x terms to one side and all the other terms to the other side. Subtract both sides by 2x and add both sides by 18.

[tex]6x - 18 = 2x + 10 \\4x = 28[/tex]

2) Divide both sides by 4 to finally isolate x.

[tex]4x = 28 \\x = 7[/tex]

Thus, x = 7.
