if a fire ranger on a tower 150 ft spot a fire at an angle of 30-depression, how many feet away is the tower is from the fire.

Answers

Answer 1

By using trigonometric relations, we will see that the distance to the fire is .173.21 ft

How to find the distance to the fire?

Here we can compare this with a right triangle. We know that one angle on the right triangle is 30°, and the adjacent cathetus to that triangle is 150ft.

Now, we want to find the hypotenuse of said triangle, which is the distance to the fire.

So we can use the trigonometric relation:

cos(a) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse).

Replacing what we know, we get:

cos(30°) = 150ft/hypotenuse

hypotenuse = 150ft/cos(30°) = 173.21 ft

So the distance to the fire is 173.21 ft

Do not write beyond this border.
Do not write beyond this border.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) ∫from 0 to 2 of te^(4-t^2) dt. Let u = 4-t^2. du= -2dt. And, tdt= -dy/2.

If x=0, u= 4 and if x=2, u=0.

Therefore our new integral will be, -(1/2) ∫ from 0 to 4 of e^u du.

= -(1/2)(e^u) | 0 to 4

= -(1/2)(e^0 - e^4)

= -(1/2) + (1/2)e^4

= (1/2)(e^4 -1)  miles

Therefore, from t=0 to t=2, Chloe has travelled a distance of (1/2)(e^4-1) miles.

b) At t=3, C(t)=12-3t-t^2

C(t) is already a function of velocity so simply plug in C(3), which is -6 miles/hour.

We also need to know acceleration.

C'(t)= -3 - 2t

C(3)= - 9 miles/hour squared.

Therefore, since velocity and acceleration are both negative, Chloes speed is increasing at t =3 hours.

A point located at (-5, -6) is reflected over the x-axis

Answers

Answer:

(-5,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point is reflection a new, prime point (x') is created.

Formula

Whenever a point is reflected over the x-axis it follows a specific rule. The point goes from (x,y) to (x,-y). So, since the point is (-5, -6) we need to switch the sign of the y-value. This creates the new point (-5, 6).

Why?

Another way to remember this formula is to understand where it comes from. When reflecting over the y-axis, a point goes from the top 2 quadrants to the bottom 2 or vice versa. This means that the value is moving vertically. During vertical shifts, there is a change in the y-value. Additionally, because the x-axis is the seperation between negative and positive y-values, the y-value changes signs.

A two-sided test of H0: μ=0, α=0.05 (two sided), yields a p-value of 0.19. Will the 95% confidence interval for μ include 0?

Group of answer choices

No

Unknown

Yes

Answers

Answer:  Yes

Explanation

Rule: if the p-value is smaller than alpha, then we reject the null.

We're given a p-value of 0.19 and alpha = 0.05

Based on that rule, it means we fail to reject the null (i.e. "accept" the null), since the p-value is not smaller than alpha.

Therefore, we conclude that mu = 0 must be the case, which means this value is in the confidence interval.

If mu = 0 was outside the confidence interval, then we would reject the null.

Determine whether F(x)=4x^2-16x+6 has a maximum or a minimum value and find that value

Answers

Answer:

f(x) has a minimum value of -10.

Step-by-step explanation:

It will have a minimum value because the coefficient of x^2 is positive.

To find its value we convert to vertex form:

f(x) = 4x^2 - 16x + 6

     = 4(x^2 - 4x) + 6

      = 4[(x - 2)^2 - 4] + 6

      = 4(x - 2)^2 - 16 + 6

      = 4(x - 2)^2 - 10.

So the minimum value is -10.

The angles in a quadrilateral are 4y - 10°, y + 40°, 3y + 20° and 2y + 10° in order as you go around the quadrilateral.
a) Set up and solve an equation, to find the value of y.
b) Hence work out the value of each angle.
c) What type of quadrilateral is this?

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360°

sum the 4 angles and equate to 360

4y - 10 + y + 40 + 3y + 20 + 2y + 10 = 360 , that is

10y + 60 = 360 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

10y = 300 ( divide both sides by 10 )

y = 30

then 4 angles are

4y - 10 = 4(30) - 10 = 120 - 10 = 110°

y + 40 = 30 + 40 = 70°

3y + 20 = 3(30) + 20 = 90 + 20 = 110°

2y + 10 = 2(30) + 10 = 60 + 10 = 70°

Since the angles measures are in order around the quadrilateral, then

the opposite angles are congruent, thus quadrilateral is a parallelogram
