The Bungling Brothers Circus is in town and you are part of the crew that

is setting up its enormous tent. The center pole that holds up the tent

is 70 feet tall. To keep it upright, a support cable needs to be attached to

the top of the pole so that the cable forms a 60° angle with the ground.


a) How long is the cable?


b) How far from the pole should the cable be attached to the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 80.83 ft b. 40.42 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h = height of pole = 70 ft, L = length of cable and x = distance of cable on ground to pole and Ф = angle between cable and ground.

a) How long is the cable?

Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and L being the hypotenuse side, by trigonometric ratios,

sinФ = h/L

L = h/sinФ

L = 70 ft/sin60°

L = 70 ft/0.8660

L = 80.83 ft

b) How far from the pole should the cable be attached to the ground?

Since L, h and x form a right-angled triangle with angle Ф and h being the opposite side to Ф and x being the adjacent side, by trigonometric ratios,

tanФ = h/x

x = h/tanФ

x = 70 ft/tan60°

x = 70 ft/1.7321

x = 40.42 ft

Answer 2

The length of the cable is 80.83 ft and the distance from the pole should the cable be attached to the ground is 40.42 ft and this can be determined by using the trigonometric function.

Given :

The Bungling Brothers Circus is in town and you are part of the crew that  is setting up its enormous tent. The center pole that holds up the tent  is 70 feet tall. To keep it upright, a support cable needs to be attached to  the top of the pole so that the cable forms a 60° angle with the ground.

a) The trigonometric function can be used in order to determine the length of the cable.

[tex]\rm sin\theta=\dfrac{h }{L}[/tex]

where h is the height of the pole, L is the length of the pole, and [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle from the ground.

Substitute the known terms in the above expression.

[tex]\rm L=\dfrac{h }{sin\theta}[/tex]

[tex]\rm L = \dfrac{70}{sin60}[/tex]

L = 80.83 ft.

b) The trigonometric function can be used in order to determine the distance from the pole should the cable be attached to the ground.

[tex]\rm tan \alpha =\dfrac{h}{x}[/tex]

where x is the distance between pole and cable.

Substitute the known terms in the above expression.

[tex]\rm x = \dfrac{70}{tan 60 }[/tex]

x = 40.42 ft.

Answer:  17; 13; 9; 5; 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x + 9

When x = -4, y = 17

When x = -2 , y = -2x + 9 = -2(-2) + 9 = 13

When x = 0 , y = -2x + 9 = -2(0) + 9 = 9

When x = 2 , y = -2x + 9 = -2(2) + 9 = 5

When x = 4 , y = -2x + 9 = -2(4) + 9 = 1

Answers

Answer:

The students rented 3 small cars and 6 large cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a group of college students are going to a lake house for the weekend and plan on renting small cars and large cars to make the trip, and each small car can hold 4 people and each large car can hold 6 people, and the students rented twice as many large cars as small cars, which altogether can hold 48 people, to determine the number of small cars rented, X, and the number of large cars rented, Y, the following calculation must be performed:

4X + 6Y = 48

4x4 + 6x8 = 16 + 48 = 64

4x3 + 6x6 = 12 + 36 = 48

Thus, the students rented 3 small cars and 6 large cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

We can simplify this expression by combining like terms

Now what are like terms?

They are terms that have the same variable ex. 4a and 2a are like terms as they have the same variable (a)

Now lets look back at the expression and see if there are any like terms

which there are (4c and -c) and (6d and 8d)

so lets combine them

4c - c =3c

6d + 8d = 14d

so the simplified version would be 3c + 14d

Answer:

B) 3c+14d

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the addition property for the following question

First we rearrange the following problem and we get

4c-c+6d+8d

The easiest way is to just add and subtract or if you want have a better understanding, you can factor our the like terms which gives us

(4-1)c+(6+8)d

and then we can simplify to get

3c+14d

C) Line A does not intersect Line B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line A passes through (6 ,-30) & (-2 , 10)

Line B passes through (-4 , 28) & (2 , -2)

Find the slopes for each line. To find the slope, use the slope formula:

slope (m) = [tex]\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Line 1:

Let:

[tex](x_1 , y_1) = (6 , -30) \\(x_2 , y_2) = (-2 , 10)[/tex]

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

m = [tex]\frac{10 - (-30)}{-2 - 6} = \frac{10 + 30}{-8} = \frac{40}{-8} = \frac{-5}{1}[/tex]

Line 2:

Let:

[tex](x_1 , y_1) = (2 , -2)\\(x_2 , y_2) = (-4 , 28)[/tex]

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

m = [tex]\frac{28 - (-2)}{-4 - (2)} = \frac{28 + 2}{-4 - 2} = \frac{30}{-6} = \frac{-5}{1}[/tex]

The two lines share the same slope, therefore, they are parallel to each other. This means that they do not intersect at any given point.

A restaurant used 231 eggs last week. 46 of them are colored white, w. The remaining eggs are colored brown. Write an equation that represents the situation. ( i will give you brainly)

Answers

Answer:

46 + W = 231

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

My guess: 231 = 46 + b

Step-by-step explanation: Because they didn't mention how many were colored brown, we would use a variable to represent them, in this case I use b. But we do know 46 of them were white. so the equation would simply be 231 = 46 + b. After you add 46 and b you will get the total to 231. You can find b from subtracting 231 to 46. Then add b to 46 and get the total of 231
