Answer:

La altura del globo con respecto al suelo es 449,6 metros.

Step-by-step explanation:

La afirmación está incompleta. El enunciado completo es: "Un globo vuela entre dos ciudades A y B, que distan entre sí 1.500 m. Los tripulantes del globo ven la ciudad A con un ángulo de depresión de 27°, mientras que para ver la ciudad B es de 36°. ¿Cuál es la altura aproximada del globo con respecto al suelo?

El diagrama geométrico de la situación se encuentra descrita en el archivo adjunto. La altura aproximada del globo puede obtenerse con ayuda de las funciones trigonométricas, en este caso, se recomienda utilizar la función tangente de los ángulos de depresión:

Ciudad A

\tan 27^{\circ} = \frac{h}{1500\,m-x}

0,510 = \frac{h}{1500\,m-x}

Ciudad B

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

0,727 = \frac{h}{x}

Donde h y x son la altura con respecto al suelo y la distancia horizontal con respecto a la ciudad A.

A continuación, se elimina la altura de ambas ecuaciones por igualación y se determina la distancia horizontal del globo con respecto a la ciudad A:

0,727\cdot x = 0,510\cdot (1500\,m-x)

1,237\cdot x = 765\,m

x = 618,432\,m

Finalmente, la altura del globo con respecto al suelo es:

h = 0,727\cdot x

h = 0,727\cdot (618,432\,m)

h = 449,600\,m

La altura del globo con respecto al suelo es 449,6 metros.

Omar, Amare, and Jack paid a total of $68.25 for dinner and tickets to a concert. The concert
Marina86 [1]

Answer: $13

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the solution arithmetically in two steps, first divide 68.25 by 3 and then subtract 9.75 from the result. To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 3(x+9.75)=68.25. Each friend paid $13 for dinner.

You and your friend each collect rocks and fossils. Your friend collects three times as many rocks and half as many fossils as y
pochemuha

Answer:

I collect 4 rocks and 16 fossils. While my friend collects 12 rocks and 8 fossils.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of total objects collected by me  = 20

The number of objects collected by my friend  = 20

Let us assume:

The number of rocks collected by me  = m

The number of fossils collected by me  = 2 k

⇒ m +  2 k =  20  .... (1)

So, according to the question:

The number of rocks collected by my friend = 3 x (rocks collected by me)  

= 3 x (m)  = 3 m

The number of fossils collected by my friend = 1/2 x (fossils collected by me)    = 1/2 x (2k )  = k

⇒ 3 m +   k =  20  .... (2)

Solving (1)and (2) for the value of m and k, we get:

m +  2 k =  20     ⇒ m = 20 - 2 k ... Put this in (2)

3 m +   k =  20  ⇒  3 (20 - 2 k) +  k = 20

⇒ 60 - 6 k +  k  = 20

or, - 5k = -40

or, k = 40/5  = 8

⇒ k= 8

m + 2(8)  = 20

or, m = 4

Hence, the number of rocks collected by me  = m = 4

The number of fossils collected by me  =  2 k = 2 (4)  = 16

Hence, the number of rocks collected by my friend   = 3 m  = 3 x 4 = 12

The number of fossils collected by my friend   =   k =  8

Hence, I collect 4 rocks and 16 fossils. While my friend collects 12 rocks and 8 fossils.

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction?
marta [7]

Answer:

  \dfrac{-4x+7}{2(x-2)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to combine the parts of the numerator and denominator into one rational expression each. Those will have the same denominator, so their ratio is the ratio of their numerators.

  \dfrac{\dfrac{3}{x-1}-4}{2-\dfrac{2}{x-1}}=\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{3-4(x-1)}{x-1}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{2(x-1)-2}{x-1}\right)}=\dfrac{3-4(x-1)}{2(x-1)-2}\\\\=\dfrac{3-4x+4}{2x-2-2}=\boxed{\dfrac{-4x+7}{2(x-2)}}

The cost of soup, s, varies directly with the number of cans, c. When c is 4, the cost is $3. Which graph represents the cost of
r-ruslan [8.4K]

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form

\frac{y}{x} =k\ or\ y=kx

In this problem

Let

x--------> the number of cans

y-------> the cost of a soup

so

when

x=4\ cans\\y=\$3

substitute

\frac{y}{x} =k\\\\ \frac{3}{4} =k

the equation is

y=\frac{3}{4}x

using a graph tool

see the attached figure
