Answer:

If CD=h and BC=x, then

h/x = tan24°

h/(x+7600) = tan16°

or,

h = 0.4452x

h = 0.2867x + 2179.2649

0.4452x = 0.2867x + 2179.2649

BC = x = 13750

CD = h = 6121

A yellow jacket can fly 4.5 meters in 9 seconds.find the unit rate in meters per second
snow_lady [41]
The answer is .5 because to set it up you write 4.5/9 and then n/1 so 4.5 times 1 = 4.5 then you multiply 9 times n so it would be 9n, so then you didvide 9 by both sides so n=.5 so the unit rate is 1: .5

Which pair of expressions has equivalent values? 1 Superscript 13 and 1 Superscript 15 6 Superscript 1 and 9 Superscript 1 7 Sup
lora16 [44]

Answer:

1 Superscript 13 and 1 Superscript 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The process of exponentiation can be mathematically written as:

a^b

where a is called the base, and b is called the exponent.

Basically it means that we have to multiply the base with itself as many times as the value of the exponent.

For example 2^4 is 2•2•2•2

Having this in mind, 1^13 and 1^15 have equivalent values, because no matter how many times we multiply 1 with itself it will always be equal to 1.
