Answer:

904.9 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The Angular distance can be calculated using below expression

S= r θ ..............eqn(1)

Where

θ = angular distance travelled

r= Radius= radius of 18 feet

But angular distance can also be expressed as

θ = wt...................eqn(2)

w= angular speed= 8 rev per minute= (8 × 2π)

t= time

Velocity can also be expressed as

V= s/t............eqn(3)

Where

V= velocity

s= distance

t= time

Substitute eqn(2) into eqn(3)

V=( r θ)/ t................eqn(4)

Substitute eqn(2) into eqn(4)

V=( r w t)/ t

V= r w ..............eqn(5)

V= 18×(8 ×2π)

=288π

= 904.9 feet per minute

Hence, the linear speed, in feet per minute, of the water. is 904.9 feet per minute

From Tony's seat in the classroom, his eyes are 1.0 m above ground. On the wall 4.2 m away, he can see the top of a blackboard t
Semmy [17]

Answer:

15 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a horizontal segment approximately 4 inches long. Label the right endpoint A and the left endpoint C. Label the length of AC 4.2 meters. That is the horizontal distance between the eye and the blackboard.

At the right endpoint, A, draw a vertical segment going up, approximately 1 inch tall. Label the upper point E, for eye. Label segment EA 1 meter since the eye is 1 meter above ground.

At the left endpoint of the horizontal segment, point C, draw a vertical segment going up approximately 2 inches. Label the upper point B for blackboard. Connect points E and B. Draw one more segment. From point E, draw a horizontal segment to the left until it intersects the vertical segment BC. Label the point of intersection D.

The angle of elevation you want is angle BED.

The length of segment BC is 2.1 meters. The length of segment CD is 1 meter. That means that the length of segment BD is 1.1 meters.

To find the measure of angle BED, we can use the opposite leg and the adjacent leg and the inverse tangent function.

BD = 1.1 m

DE = 4.2 m

tan <BED = opp/adj

tan <BED = 1.1/4.2

m<BED = tan^-1 (1.1/4.2)

m<BED = 15

Answer: 15 degrees

Kira looked through online census information to determine the average number of people living in the homes in her city. What is
Goshia [24]
First we need to identify if the data is qualitative or quantitative.

The data is average number of people living in the homes.

Qualitative data as its name indicates is an attribute or characteristic. It can not be measured e.g color. Quantitative data is such a data which can be counted or measured.

Since the average number of people can be counted and measured, the data is Quantitative.

In an observational study the individuals are observed. In the given case, Kira did not observed the individuals to gather the data, rather she used an Online resource to gather the data.

Therefore, the correct answer will be:
Kira used published data that is quantitative.

Which expressions simplify to a rational answer? Select each correct answer. 29√⋅4√ 3√⋅16−−√ 73⋅−√3√ 5√⋅5√
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The correct options are 1, 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the expressions whose simplified form is a rational number.

Rational number: If a number is defined in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q≠0, then it is called a rational number.

For example: 0,2, 4.3 etc.

Irrational number: If a number can not defined in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q≠0, then it is called an irrational number.

First expression is

2\sqrt{9}\cdot \sqrt{4}=2(3)\cdot (2)\Rightarrow 6\cdot 2=12

12 is a rational number.

Second expression is

\sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt{16}=\sqrt{3}\cdot 4\Rightarrow 4\sqrt{3}

4\sqrt{3} is an irrational number.

Third expression is

7\sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt{3}\Rightarrow 7\cdot 3=21

21 is a rational number.

Fourth expression is

\sqrt{5}\cdot \sqrt{5}=5

5 is a rational number.

Therefore, the correct options are 1, 3 and 4.

What is the following quotient 3 sqrt 8/ 4 sqrt 6
adell [148]
We have that
(3√8)/(4√6)

we know that
√8---------> √(2³)-----> 2√2
so
(3√8)/(4√6)=(3*[2√2])/(4√6)---> 6√2/(4√6)
√6=√(2*3)---> √2*√3
6√2/(4√6)=6√2/(4√2*√3)----> 6/(4√3)----> 6/(4√3)*(√3/√3)-----> 6√3/(4*3)----> √3/2

the answer is
√3/2
