Un globo busca aterrizar en medio de dos ciudades A y B, cuya distancia entre si es de 200 km. Si se mide el ángulo de elevación

desde cada casa hasta el punto C en el que se ubica el globo en un instante dado, se obtienen 27° y 36° . ¿Cuál es la altura aproximada del globo?

Answer:

h \approx 59.898\,km

Step-by-step explanation:

El diagrama trigonométrico que representa el enunciado es incluido abajo como adjunto. Las siguientes relaciones trigonométricas describen la localización del globo. (The trigonometric diagram representing the statement is included below as attachment. The following trigonometric relations describes the location of the balloon):

\tan 27^{\circ} = \frac{h}{x}

\tan 36^{\circ} = \frac{h}{200-x}

A continuación, se obtiene la distancia horizontal: (The horizontal distance is obtained hereafter):

x \cdot \tan 27^{\circ} = (200-x)\cdot \tan 36^{\circ}

x \cdot (\tan 27^{\circ} + \tan 36^{\circ})= 200\cdot \tan 36^{\circ}

x = \frac{200\cdot \tan 36^{\circ}}{\tan 27^{\circ}+ \tan 36^{\circ}}

x \approx 117.557\,km

La altura aproximada del globo es (The approximated height of the globe is):

h = x\cdot \tan 27^{\circ}

h \approx 59.898\,km

Write the following inequality in slope intercept form.<br> 6x + 2y ≤-46
Kipish [7]
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
 So we're solving the equation in the question for y.
First, we subtract 6x from both sides to get

2y<-46-6x. Then we divide both sides by 2 to get y alone.
Then the answer will be y<-46÷2 -6x÷2
 FInal answer = y< -23-3x or y<-3x-23

The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race. First they reduce their time by 2.1 minutes. Then they are able
konstantin123 [22]

Answer: 15.7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time in the beginning (in minutes).

Given: The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race.

First they reduce their time by t_1=2.1 minutes.

Then they are able to reduce that time by t_2=10

If their final time is 3.96 minutes, then

x-t_1-t_2=3.6\\\Rightarrow\ x=3.6+t_1+t_2\\\Rightarrow\ x=3.6+2.1+10\\\Rightarrow\ x= 15.7

Hence, their beginning time was 15.7 minutes.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

3rd Option

Step-by-step explanation:

Which equation is the inverse of y = 7x2 – 10?

y = StartFraction plus-or-minus StartRoot x + 10 EndRoot Over 7 EndFraction

y = plus-or-minus StartRoot StartFraction x + 10 Over 7 EndFraction EndRoot

x = plus-or-minus StartRoot StartFraction x Over 7 EndFraction + 10 EndRoot

y = StartFraction plus-or-minus StartRoot x EndRoot Over 7 EndFraction plus-or-minus StartFraction StartRoot 10 EndRoot Over 7 EndFraction

The data set below represents the ages of 36 executives. find the percentile that corresponds to an age of 4141 years old. 2828
solong [7]

Answer:

37th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a data set that represents the ages of 36 executives. We are asked to find the percentile that corresponds to an age of 41 years.

28, 29, 29, 32, 32, 33, 34, 34, 34, 34, 37, 37, 38, 41, 41, 42, 45, 45, 47, 47, 47, 48, 50, 51, 53, 56, 56, 56, 61, 61, 62, 63, 64, 64, 65, 66.

Let us count the number of data points below and at 41.

We can see that the number of data points at and below 41 is 13.

We will use percentile formula to solve our given problem.

\text{Percentile rank of x}=\frac{\text{Number of values below x}}{\text{Total number of data points}}\times 100

\text{Percentile rank of 41}=\frac{13}{36}\times 100

\text{Percentile rank of 41}=0.361111\times 100

\text{Percentile rank of 41}=36.11\approx 37

Therefore, the percentile rank that corresponds to age of 41 years old is 37th percentile.
