8. The world's tallest
totem pole is in Alert
Bay, B.C., home of the
Nimpkish First Nation.
Twenty feet from the
base of the totem pole,
the angle of elevation
of the top of the pole
is 83.4º. How tall is
the totem pole to the
nearest foot?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The height of the totem tree is approximately 172.8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

To find the height of the totem pole, we need to use our date to make a pictorial representation so that we can know if the pole and base makes a right angle triangle with the angle of elevation.

See attached document for better illustration.

Let T represent the height of the pole.

Using trigonometric ratio,

SOHCAHTOA, we can use tangent since we have our adjacent and we're to solve for the opposite.

Tanθ = opposite/ adjacent

Opposite = T

Adjacent = 20ft

θ = 83.4°

Tan83.4 = T / 20

T = 20Tan83.4

T = 20 × 8.64

T = 172.8ft

The height of the totem tree is approximately 172.8ft

A circular track is 1000 yards in circumference. Cyclists A, B, and C start at the same place and time, and race around the track at the following rates per minute: A at 700 yards, B at 800 yards, and C at 900 yards. What is the least number of minutes it mus take for all three to be together again?

Answers

Answer:

B gains 100 yards every minute. So, after 10 minutes, B has lapped A once.

C gains 100 yards on B every minute, so after 10 minutes C has lapped B.

Thus, after 10 minutes, A has gone 7 laps, B has gone 8 laps, C has gone 9 laps, and all are even again.

In ∠QRS, m∠R=65°, and m∠S=35°. Which side of ΔQRS is the longest?

Answers

Answer:

The longest side of the ΔQRS is Side RS.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  m∠R=65°, m∠S=35° we don't know what m∠Q is in ΔQRS.

To find m∠Q , we first need to know that all triangles have a sum of 180°. Since we are already given two angle measurements ( m∠R and  m∠S) we can add them both measurements up which gives us 100°. Then we subtract 100 from the triangle sum which is 180° (180°-100°) and we are left with 80°. Which mean that m∠Q got to be 80°.

Now we know the all the angles measurements we can immediately find out which side is the longest. To find the longest side its always lie opposite the largest angle which in this m∠Q (80°). Which mean that side RS is the longest side in the triangle.

what is the value of x? enter your answer in the box

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{x = 45\ degrees}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 180 - 80 - 55 (Interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees so if we need to find any unknown angle, we'll subtract all the other angles from 180)

x = 45 degrees

Answer: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of a triangle's angles will always be 180 degrees. If we subtract 80 and 55 from 180, we will get the missing angle.

[tex]180-80-55=45[/tex]

Thus, the missing angle is 45 degrees.

11. How many kilometers is it from the main gate to Manatee Springs? (Hint: To convert from

Manatee Springs

Elephant

3,500 yds

4,200 yds

Train Depot

2,000 yds

Bird Sanctuary

Main Gate

(SHOW WORK)

Answers

Answer:

6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the following items

the Point at Train depot = T

The Point at Main gate =  M

The Point at Bird sanctuary =  B

The Point at Elephant house = E

The Point at manatee Springs =  S

As we can see that there are two triangles namely TMB and TSE.

Mentioned that

MTB = ∠STE

∠TMB = ∠TSE

∠TBM = ∠TES.

According to the Angle-angle-angle (AAA similarity)

So, the triangles TMB and TSE are the same.

[tex]\frac{TM}{TS} = \frac{TB}{TE} \\\\ \frac{TM}{4,200} = \frac{2,000}{3,500}[/tex]

So, the TM is 2400 yds

Now the Distance between Main gate M and manatee Spring S is

MS = MT + TS

= 2,400 + 4200

= 6600 yds

Now the MS is

= 6600 × 0.0009144 km

= 6.035 km

6 km

The time between failures for an electrical appliance is exponentially distributed with a mean of 25 months. What is the probability that the next failure will not occur before 30 months have elapsed

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the next failure will not occur before 30 months have elapsed is 0.0454

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Poisson distribution  where

t= number of units of time

x= number of occurrences in t units of time

λ= average number of occurrences per unit of time

P(x;λt) = e raise to power (-λt)  multiplied by λtˣ divided by x!

here λt = 25

x= 30

P(x= 30) = 25³⁰e⁻²⁵/ 30!

P (x= 30) = 8.67 E41 * 1.3887 E-11/30!    (where E= exponent)

P (x=30) = 1.204 E31/30!

Solving it with a statistical calculator would give

P (x=30) = 0.0454

The probability that the next failure will not occur before 30 months have elapsed is 0.0454

We need to find the value of k so that the triangle with vertices (1, -1), (-4,2k) and (-k, – 5) is 24 sq. units.

The area of triangle is given by :

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times [x_1(y_2-y_3)-x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)][/tex]

George spent $40.80 on 3 identical files and 2 identical pencil cases. Each file cost $5.40 less than a pencil case. How much did George pay for each file?​

Answers

Answer:

He spent $6 on each file

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

To solve this question, we need to bring out our variables from the equation.

He spent $40.80 for 3 files and 2 pencil cases

Let x represent the file

Let y represent the pencil case

But the file is $5.40 less than each pencil case

x = y - 5.40.....equation (i)

40.80 = 3x + 2y .......equation (ii)

Substitute equation (i) into equation (ii)

40.80 = 3(y - 5.40) + 2y

40.80 = 3y - 16.20 + 2y

Collect like terms

40.80 + 16.20 = 3y + 2y

57 = 5y

Solve for y

y = 57 / 5

y = 11.4

The pencil case costs $11.4 each.

Put y = 11.4 into equation (i)

x = 11.4 - 5.40

x = 6.0

The file costs $6 each

Which describes how square S could be transformed to square S prime in two steps? Assume that the center of dilation is the origin. A.) a dilation by a scale factor of Two-fifths and then a translation of 3 units up B.) a dilation by a scale factor of Two-fifths and then a reflection across the x-axis C.) a dilation by a scale factor of Five-halves and then a translation of 3 units up D.) a dilation by a scale factor of Five-halves and then a reflection across the x-axis

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

A.) A dilation by a scale factor of two-fifths and then a translation of 3 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

Square S undergoes transformation into square S'

From the figure, the dimension of S' = 2/5 dimension of S

Therefore, the scale factor of the dilation is two-fifths

The center of dilation = The origin

Therefore, given that the top right edge of S is at the center of dilation, the initial location of the dilated figure will be (0, 0), (2, 0), (2, -2), and (0, -2)

Given that the lowermost coordinates of S' are (0, 1) and (2, 1), and the lowermost coordinates of the initial dilation are (0, -2) and (2, -2), we have that the translation to S' from the initial dilation is T (0 - 0, 1 - (-2)) = T(0, 3) which is 3 units up.

Hello There. ☆~---~--___●♡●__~--☆ Since p = x² - 7, you can substitute/plug in p for x² - 7

So:

(x² - 7)² - 4x² + 28 = 5

(p)² - 4x² + 28 = 5   You can factor out -4 from (-4x² + 28)

p² - 4(x² - 7) = 5        Plug in p

p² - 4p = 5        Subtract 5

p² - 4p - 5 = 0  And, your correct answer is C.

Answers

Answer:

A. How many times the ad appear:

= 400 times

B. How many hits the website must have for thread to appear 1000 times with 0.05 probability that an ad appears when the website is loaded.

= 20,000 hits

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The probability that an ad appears when a particular website is loaded = 0.2

When the website gets 2,000 hits a day, the ad appears

= 2,000 x 0.2

= 400 times

B. When the probability that an ad appears when the website is loaded is 0.05.

Therefore, the website must have 20,000 hits for thread to appear 1,000 times

= 1,000/0.05

= 20,000 times

The probability of an ad appearing when a website is loaded is the chance that the event happens (i.e. the ad appears) from the many events that can happen.

The Greenpoint factory produced two-fifths of the Consolidated Brick Company’s bricks in 1991. If the Greenpoint factory produced 1,400 tons of bricks in 1991, what was the Consolidated Brick Company’s total output that year, in tons?

Answers

Answer:

3500 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

The Greenpoint factory produced 2/5 of the bricks that the Consolidate Brick Company produced in 1991.

Let the amount of bricks produced by the Greenpoint factory be g and the amount of bricks produced by the Consolidated brick company be c.

Therefore:

g = 2/5 * c = 2c/5

That year, the Greenpoint factory produced 1400 tons of bricks. This implies that:

1400 = 2c/5

To find the amount that the Consolidated Brick Company produced, solve for c:

1400 = 2c/5

1400 * 5 = 2c

7000 = 2c

c = 7000 / 2 = 3500 tons

The Consolidated Brick Company had a total production output of 3500 tons in 1991.
