An airplane is currently flying at an altitude of 37,000 feet. The airplane is scheduled to land at an airport 100 miles

away. Find the average angle at which the airplane must descend for landing. Round your answer to the nearest

degree.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Height of the airplane = 37000feet

distance covered on landing = 100miles = 100(5280)

distance covered on landing  = 528,000feet

Using the SOH CAH TOA

sin theta = opposite/hyp

sin theta = 37000/528000

sin theta = 37/528

theta = arcsin (37/528)

theta = 4 degrees

Hence average angle at which the airplane must descend for landing is 4degrees

The temperature was recorded at the same time each day,
a)
Which temperature was the warmest?
b)
Which temperature was the coldest?
c)
How much colder was it on Thursday than on Saturday?
d)
On Sunday the temperature was 5°C lower than on Saturday.
What was the temperature on Sunday?

Answers

Answer:

a) The warmest temperature will be the one where the value of the temperature is the largest, in the table we can see that the largest temperature is 3°C on Saturday.

Then the largest temperature was on Saturday, and it was 3°C

b) Which temperature was the coldest?

Now we need to look at the smallest temperature (or the largest negative temperature). In the table we can see that the smallest temperature is -6°C on Friday.

Then the smallest temperature is -6°C.

c) On Thursday the temperature was -1°C

On Saturday the temperature was 3°C

The difference between the temperatures is:

-1°C - (3°C) = -4°C

This means that Thursday was -4°C colder than on Saturday.

d) On Sunday, the temperature was 5°C lower than on Saturday.

On Saturday the temperature was 3°C, then the temperature on Sunday is:

T = 3°C - 5°C = -2°C

The temperature on Sunday is -3°C.

Andre is planting saplings (baby trees). It takes him 30 minutes to plant 3 saplings. If each sapling takes the same amount of time to plant, how long will it take Andre to plant 14 saplings? If you get stuck, consider using the table.

Answers

Answer:

140 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes him 30 mins to plant three, then 30 divided into three equal groups is 10. Then we multiply 14 and 10 together since it takes Andre ten minutes to plant each sapling. This means  that the 14 saplings takes ten minutes EACH to plant.

The revenue​ (in dollars) from the sale of x car seats for infants is given by the following function. R(x) =56x -0.020x^2 0less than or equal to x and 2800 is greater than or equal to x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Rate = 15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]R(x) = 56 - 0.020x^2[/tex]

Required

Find the average change from​ 1,000 car seats to​ 1,050 car seats --- Missing information

This is calculated using:

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(b) - R(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]a = 1000[/tex]

[tex]b = 1050[/tex]

Now, we have:

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(1050) - R(1000)}{1050-1000}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(1050) - R(1000)}{50}[/tex]

Calculating R(1050)

[tex]R(1050) = 56 *1050- 0.020*1050^2[/tex]

[tex]R(1050) = 58800-22050[/tex]

[tex]R(1050) = 36750[/tex]

Calculating R(1000)

[tex]R(1000) = 56 *1000- 0.020*1000^2[/tex]

[tex]R(1000) = 56000- 20000[/tex]

[tex]R(1000) = 36000[/tex]

So:

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(1050) - R(1000)}{50}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{750} {50}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = 15[/tex]

The average rate of change is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(2/5)√5

Step-by-step explanation:

from the sine rule (see attached for reference), we can construct the following relationship

12/sinθ  = (6√5) / sin 90°

recall that sin 90° = 1, hence our equation becomes:

12/sinθ  = (6√5) / 1

12/sinθ  = (6√5)   (rearranging)

12 ÷ (6√5)  = sin θ

sin θ = 12 / (6√5)

sin θ = 2 / √5   (moving radical to numerator by multiplying by √5/√5)

= 2 / √5     x     √5/√5

= 2√5 / 5

= (2/5)√5

Mary has 200ml of hand sanitizer that is 15% alcohol. She mixes it with 200ml of a

hand sanitizer that is x% alcohol,

How many milliliters of water is in the resulting mixture of hand sanitizers?

Answers

Answer:

(370-2x)ml

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

In first hand sanitizer

Total solution=200ml

Alcohol=15% of 200ml

Alcohol=[tex]\frac{15}{100}\times 200=30ml[/tex]

In second hand sanitizer

Solution=200 ml

Alcohol=x% of 200 ml

Alcohol=[tex]\frac{x}{100}\times 200=2x ml[/tex]

We have to find the water in the resulting mixture of hand sanitizers.

Total solution of two hand sanitizers=200+200=400ml

Total alcohol in two hand sanitizers=(30+2x)ml

Water in two hand sanitizers=400-(30+2x) ml

Water in two hand sanitizers=400-30-2x ml

Water in two hand sanitizers=(370-2x)ml

Hence, water  in the resulting mixture of hand sanitizers=(370-2x)ml

Michael drove from home to work at an average speed of 50 mph. His return trip home took 30 minutes longer because he could only drive at 40 mph. Find the distance from his home to his work. A. [3 pts) Define variables to represent the unknowns and setup the necessary equations to answer the question. B. [4 pts) Algebraically solve the equation you created and express your final answer using a complete sentence and appropriate units. (You will not receive full credit if a trial and error method is used in place of an algebraic method.)

Answers

Answer:

100 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

To work :

speed = 50mph

Let time taken = x

From work :

speed = 40mph

30 minutes = 30/60 = 0.5

Time taken = x + 0.5

Distance from home to work :

Distance = speed * time

To work distance = from work distance

This can be algebraically expressed as :

50 * x = 40(x + 0.5)

50x = 40x + 20

50x - 40x = 20

10x = 20

x = 20/10

x = 2

Hence,

Distance = 50 * 2 = 100

The the distance from home to work = 100 miles

The distance from Michael home to work is 100 miles

Speed

Speed is the ratio of the total distance travelled to the total time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Let d represent the distance from Michael home to work. Hence:

50 = d/tt = d / 50

He took 30 minutes (0.5 hours) longer when driving at 40 mph, hence:

40 = d/(t + 0.5)t = (d - 20)/40

d/50 = (d - 20) / 40

40d = 50d - 1000

10d = 1000

d = 100 miles

The distance from Michael home to work is 100 miles
