Answer:

The ratio of Tan B is

\tan B= \dfrac{AC}{BC}=\dfrac{8}{15}

OR

\tan A= \dfrac{BC}{AC}=\dfrac{15}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

In Right Angle Triangle ABC

angle C = 90°

AB = Ramp = 17 feet

BC =Horizontal distance = 15 feet

AC = Height from floor = 8 feet

To Find:

Ratio of Tan B = ?

Solution:

In Right Angle Triangle ABC By Tangent Identity we have

\tan B= \dfrac{\textrm{side opposite to angle B}}{\textrm{side adjacent to angle B}}

Substituting the given values we get

\tan B= \dfrac{AC}{BC}=\dfrac{8}{15}

OR

\tan A= \dfrac{BC}{AC}=\dfrac{15}{8}

Imaginá que tenés 125 dados cúbicos del mismo tamaño ¿Cuantos dados de altura tiene el cubo de mayor tamaño que podés armar apil
kumpel [21]

Answer:

(i) Debemos apilar 5 dados para construir el cubo de mayor tamaño.

(ii) Se necesita 121 dados cuadrados para formar el cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de dados posibles, quedando 4 dados sobrantes.

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Sabemos por la Geometría Euclídea del Espacio que un cubo es un sólido regular con 6 caras cuadradas y longitudes iguales. Cada dado tiene un volumen de 1 dado cúbico y 125 dados dan un volumen total de 125 dados cúbicos.

El volumen de un cubo está dado por la siguiente fórmula:

V = L^{3}

Donde:

L - Longitud de la arista, medida en dados.

V - Volumen del cubo, medido en dados cúbicos.

Ahora, necesitamos despejar la longitud de la arista para calcular la altura máxima posible:

L = \sqrt[3]{V}

Dado que V = 125\,dados^{3}, encontramos que la altura del cubo de mayor tamaño sería:

L =\sqrt[3]{125\,dados^{3}}

L = 5\,dados

Debemos apilar 5 dados para construir el cubo de mayor tamaño.

(ii) El área cuadrada formada por cubos está determinada por la siguiente fórmula:

A = L^{2}

Donde:

L - Longitud de arista, medida en dados.

A - Área, medida en dados cuadrados.

Puesto que la longitud de arista se basa en un conjunto discreto, esto es, el número de dados disponibles, debemos encontrar el valor máximo de L tal que no supere 125 y de un área entera. Es decir:

L \leq 125\,dados

Si cada cubo tiene un área de 1 dado cuadrado, entonces un cuadrado conformado por 125 dados tiene un área total de 125 dados cuadrados. Entonces:

L^{2}< 125\,dados^{2}

Esto nos lleva a decir que:

L < 11.180\,dados

Entonces, la longitud máxima del cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de cubos posible es de 11 dados. El número total requerido de cubos es el cuadrado de esa cifra, es decir:

n = (11\,dados)^{2}

n = 121\,dados

Se necesita 121 dados cuadrados para formar el cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de dados posibles, quedando 4 dados sobrantes.

Quadrilateral A’B’C’D’ is a dilation of quadrilateral ABCD about point P. Quadrilateral ABCD is shown. Side AB is labeled 5. Sid
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:  The correct option is (A) reduction.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the quadrilateral A'B'C'D' is a dilation of the quadrilateral ABCD.

As shown in the given figure, the lengths of the sides of quadrilateral ABCD are as follows:

AB = 5 units, BC = 4 units, CD = 10 units and DA = 6 units.

And, the lengths of the sides of quadrilateral A'B'C'D' are as follows:

A'B'=1\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{5}{4}~\textup{units},~~B'C'=1~\textup{units},~~C'D'=2\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{2}~\textup{units},\\\\D'A'=1\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}~\textup{units}.

We know that the dilation will be an enlargement if the scale factor is greater than 1 and it will be a reduction if the scale factor is less than 1.

Now, the scale factor is given by

S=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of the dilated figure}}{\textup{length of the corresponding side of the original figure}}\\\\\\\Rightarrow S=\dfrac{A'B'}{AB}=\dfrac{\frac{5}{4}}{5}=\dfrac{5}{4\times5}=\dfrac{1}{4}

Since the scale factor is less than 1, so the dilation will be a reduction.

I rent a gym for $150.00 for 30 students. Another time I rent the gym for $270.00 for 70 students. I need to find a fixed rate.
masha68 [24]

Answer: y = 3x + 60

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Set up two equations and solve the system:

 270 = 70x + b

- <u>(150 = 30x + b)</u>

  120 = 40x

    3   =  x

Input "x" into one of the equations and solve for "b":

150 = 30x + b

150 = 30(3) + b

150 = 90 + b

60 = b


Equation: y = 3x + 60

This means that there is a flat fee of $60 plus a rate of $3 per student
