Suppose a person is standing on the top of a building and that she has an instrument that allows her to
measure angles of depression. There are two points that are 100 feet apart and lie on a straight line that is
perpendicular to the base of the building. Now suppose that she measures the angle of depression from the
top of the building to the closest point to be 33.5º and the angle of depression from the top of the
building to the furthest point to be 28.3º. Determine the height of the building. (Round your answer to the
nearest tenth of a foot.)
The building and the person on it are illustrations of elevation and depression
The height of the building is 76.9 feet
How to determine the height of the building?To calculate the building height, we make use of the attached illustration
Considering the triangle DCB in the figure, we have:
tan(B) = DC/BD
Substitute known values
tan(28.3) = DC/(DA + 100)
Cross multiply
(DA + 100) * tan(28.3) = DC
Divide both sides by tan(28.3)
DA + 100 = DC/tan(28.3)
Subtract 100 from both sides
DA = -100 + DC/tan(28.3)
Considering the triangle DCA in the figure, we have:
tan(A) = DC/DA
Substitute known values
tan(33.5) = DC/DA
Make DA the subject
DA = DC/tan(33.5)
Substitute DA = DC/tan(33.5) in DA = -100 + DC/tan(28.3)
DC/tan(33.5) = -100 + DC/tan(28.3)
Evaluate the tangent ratios
0.56DC = -100 + 1.86DC
Collect like terms
-1.86DC + 0.56DC = -100
Evaluate
-1.3DC = -100
Divide both sides by -1.3
DC = 76.9 feet
Hence, the height of the building is 76.9 feet

bedmas 10+45/9-(14/2)=
Answer:
8.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. In PEMDAS, parenthesis always comes first. In this equation, 14 divided by 2 is in parenthesis. this equals 7. Now the equation looks like the following: 10+45/9-(7).
3. In this equation, there are no exponents, nor is there multiplication, so we move on to division. The only division left in this equation is 45 divided by 9, which is equal to 5. Now the equation looks like the following:
10+5-(7)
4. Next in PEMDAS comes addition, which in this case is 10 plus 5, which is equal to 15. Equation presently: 15-(7)
5. Lastly, subtraction. 15 minus 7= 8, therefore the overall answer is 8.

The school cafeteria has 16 round tables that each fit-8 students and..
12 rectangular tables that each fit 12 students. How many students can
fit in the cafeteria at once?
A 128
- B 256
C 144
D 272
Answer:
The answer is D. 272
Step-by-step explanation:
All you need to do is find out how many people can be seated at each table, then add them together.
16 x 8 = 128
12 x 12 = 144
128 + 144 = 272
272 students can fit in the cafeteria at once.

Laurie throws a tennis ball toward her dog from a height of 4.5 ft. The initial vertical velocity of the ball is 18 ft/s. At the same time as Laurie throws the ball, her dog jumps with an initial vertical velocity of 21 ft/s. When the dog jumps, its mouth is 1.5 ft above the ground.
Projectile motion formula:
h = -16t2 + vt + h0
t = time, in seconds, since the ball was thrown
h = height, in feet, above the ground
Which system models the height of the tennis ball and the height of the dog's mouth over time?
h = 4.5t + 18 and h = -16t2 + 1.5t + 21
h = 18t + 4.5 and h =-16t2 + 21t + 1.5
h = -16t2 + 4.5t + 18 and h = -16t2 + 1.5t + 14
h = -16t2 + 18t + 4.5 and h = -16t2 + 21t + 1.5
Using quadratic function concepts, it is found that the system that models the height of the tennis ball and the height of the dog's mouth over time is given by:
h(t) = -16t² + 18t + 4.5 and h(t) = -16t² + 21t + 1.5.
What is the quadratic function for the height of a projectile?It is given by:
h(t) = -16t² + v(0)t + h(0)
In which:
v(0) is the initial velocity.h(0) is the initial height.For the tennis ball, we have that v(0) = 18, h(0) = 4.5, hence the equation is:
h(t) = -16t² + 18t + 4.5.
For the dog jump, we have that v(0) = 21, h(0) = 1.5, hence:
h(t) = -16t² + 21t + 1.5.
Hence, the system is given by:
h(t) = -16t² + 18t + 4.5 and h(t) = -16t² + 21t + 1.5.

Give an example of an equation that crosses the x-axis at x=3 and x=-8.
This is a problem on my math homework that I’ve been stuck on. Does anyone know how to help?
The *graph of a function* (and not an equation) f(x) crosses the x-axis for any value of x such that f(x) = 0. We call x a root of f(x) in that case.
The simplest function with roots at both x = 3 and x = -8 is
f(x) = (x - 3) (x + 8)
since
f(3) = (3 - 3) (3 + 8) = 0 • 11 = 0
and
f(-8) = (-8 - 3) (-8 + 8) = -11 • 0 = 0

Answer: x=20
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles provided are vertical angles.
Vertical angles are equal in measurement.
This means we can set (3x+50) and (6x-10) equal to each other and solve for x
[tex]3x+50=6x-10[/tex]
Add 10 to both sides
[tex]3x+50=6x-10\\3x+50+10=6x-10+10\\3x+60=6x[/tex]
Subtract 3x from both sides
[tex]3x-3x+60=6x-3x\\60=3x[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3
[tex]\frac{60}{3} =\frac{3x}{3} \\20=x[/tex]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x + 50)° = (6x - 10)°
3x - 6x = -50 - 10

Answer:
8.6 mile
Explanation:
[tex]\sf equation \ follows : \ \ \ d = 1.2116\sqrt{h}[/tex]
d represents the distance a person can see.h represents the height above the ocean.what the captain sees:
[tex]\hookrightarrow \sf d_c = 1.2116\sqrt{15}[/tex]
what the sailor sees:
[tex]\hookrightarrow \sf d_s = 1.2116\sqrt{120}[/tex]
Difference between them:
[tex]\sf \rightarrow 1.2116\sqrt{120} \ - \ 1.2116\sqrt{15}[/tex]
[tex]\sf \rightarrow 8.58[/tex]
[tex]\sf \rightarrow 8.6[/tex] (rounded to nearest tenth)
Answer:
8.6 miles (nearest tenth)
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]d=1.2116\sqrt{h}[/tex]
where:
d = approximate distance a person can see (in miles)h = person's height above the ocean (in feet)Captain
Given the Captain is 15 ft above the ocean:
[tex]\implies h = 15[/tex]
Substituting this into the equation:
[tex]\implies d_1=1.2116\sqrt{15}[/tex]
Lookout
Given the lookout is 120ft above the ocean:
[tex]\implies h = 120[/tex]
Substituting this into the equation:
[tex]\implies d_2=1.2116\sqrt{120}[/tex]
Solution
To find how much farther the lookout can see than the captain, subtract the distance the captain can see from the distance the lookout can see:
[tex]\implies d_2-d_1[/tex]
[tex]\implies 1.2116\sqrt{120}-1.2116\sqrt{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for compound interest is [tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]
Where
A = final amount
P = initial principal balance (1700 for this)
r = interest rate (0.065 for this)
n = number of times interest applied per time period (1 for this)
t = number of time periods elapsed (3 for this)

Answer:
see image
Step-by-step explanation:
You are subtracting fractions. To do this you must have a common denominator. Then subtract the numerators.
In your question, the denominators (expressions on the bottom) are ALREADY THE SAME, because (x+2)(x+1) is the same as x^2+3x+2.
So to subtract, keep the denominator and subtract the tops:
x - 1
The result can be written in either factored form or standard form. The answers are equivalent. See image.
