A certain book is for sale in both Belize and Brazil. In Belize, it sells for 80.39 Belize dollars. In Brazil, it sells for 63.6

5 Brazilian reals. The exchange rate of US dollars to Belize dollars is 1:1.9246, and the exchange rate of US dollars to Brazilian reals is 1:1.7880. When converted into US dollars, which country sells the book at a more expensive price, and how much more expensive is it? Round all currency values to two decimal places.

A book is sold in Belize for 80.39 Belize dollars.
In Brazil, it sells for 63.65 Brazilian reals.

The exchange rate of US Dollars to Belize Dollars is 1:1.9246
<span>The exchange rate of US Dollars to Brazilian Real is 1:1.7880
</span>
If we convert the two into dollars,
Belize Dollars 
1 : 1.9246 = X : <span>80.39 
1.9246X = 80.39
X = $ 41.77 

</span>Brazilian Real
1 : 1.7880 = X : 63.65 <span> 
</span>1.7880X = 63.65 <span>
X = $ 35.60
</span>
Difference = $ 41.77 - $ 35.60
Difference = $ 6.17

<span>So, in Belize the book is more expensive by $ 6.17</span>

After traveling for 4 hours and 1800 miles, an airplane begins a steady descent. When it begins descending, its altitude (height
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Part 1)  Descending Rate = -2,000 ft/min

Part 2)  Starting altitude value is 33,000 ft

Part 3)  The linear equation for the plane's altitude (y) as a function of time (x) is:  y=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,x\,+\,33000\,ft

Part 4)  The information not used for the equation is that the plane was travelling for 4 hours to cover 1800 miles before starting the descent

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

The rate at which the airplane descends is given by the difference between final and initial altitude (17,000 ft-33,000 ft) divided the elapsed time (8 minutes):

Descending\,\,Rate\,= \frac{17000-33000}{8} \,\,\frac{ft}{min}=\frac{-16000}{8} \,\,\frac{ft}{min}=-\,2000\,\,\frac{ft}{min}

Part 2)

When graphing the descent (that is the plane's altitude as a function of time), the starting value for the altitude should be 33,000 ft

Part 3)

We can build the equation of the plane's altitude as a function of time in slope y-intercept form y = m x + b

by noticing that the slope "m" stands for the rate of descent that we found in part 1), and then using the information that at time zero (when the plane starts its descent), its altitude is 33000 ft:

y=m\,x\,+\,b\\y=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,x\,+\,b\\33000=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,(0)\,+\,b\\33000=b

with this information about the intercept "b", we can write the final expression for the plane's altitude as a function of time during its descent as:

y=-2000\,\frac{ft}{min} \,x\,+\,33000\,ft

Part 4)

The information that was not used to write the descent equation was the initial details about how long the plane traveled (4 hours) and for 1800 miles.

If cosine theta almost-equals 0.3090, which of the following represents approximate values of sine theta and tangent theta, for
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

\sin \theta = 0.9511 and \tan \theta = 3.078

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, \cos \theta = 0.309.

Now, we have to calculate the values of \sin \theta and \tan \theta.

We know the identity that, \sin^{2}\theta + \cos^{2}\theta  = 1

So, \sin \theta = \sqrt{1 + \cos^{2}\theta} = \sqrt{1 - (0.309)^{2}} = 0.9511 {Since 0 \leq  \theta \leq  90^{\circ}}

Now, \sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos\theta} = \frac{1}{0.309} = 3.236

Then, we know the identity, \sec^{2}\theta - \tan^{2}\theta  = 1

So, \tan \theta = \sqrt{\sec^{2}\theta - 1} = \sqrt{(3.236)^{2} - 1} = 3.078 (Answer) {Since 0 \leq  \theta \leq  90^{\circ}}

Evaluate. 58−(14)2=58-142= ________
nasty-shy [4]

For this case we have the following expression:

58- (14) ^ 2

The first step is to solve the quadratic term.

We have then:

58- (14) ^ 2 = 58-196

Then, the second step is to subtract both resulting numbers:

58- (14) ^ 2 = -138

We observe that the result obtained is a negative number.

Answer:

The result of the expression is given by:

58- (14) ^ 2 = -138
