A Road Starts At Sea Level And Climbs Steadily, Reaching An Elevation Of 2000 Feet After 8 Miles, As

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I think the answer is 1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

 Elevation of the road at 5 miles from the starting point is 1250 ft.

Similarity of triangles:    If two triangles are similar, their corresponding sides will be proportional.

Given in the question,

Two triangles formed by a road are ΔADE and ΔABC (As shown in the figure attached).

Since, ∠A ≅ ∠A (Reflexive property)

           ∠AED ≅ ∠ACB (right angles)

            ΔADE ~ ΔABC (By A-A property of similarity)

In these similar triangles, corresponding sides will be proportional.

[tex]\frac{AB}{BC}=\frac{AD}{DE}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{2000}=\frac{5}{DE}[/tex]

[tex]DE=\frac{5\times 2000}{8}[/tex]

      [tex]=1250[/tex] miles

   Therefore, elevation of the road at 5 miles from the starting point will  be 1250 ft.

    Option (B) will be the answer.

43°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You need to create an equation: 3c+64+5c+82=90°

(Why 90°?)- this is a right triangle as you can see the little square

2. Then combine like terms

8c+146=90°

3. Subtract 146 from both sides

4. 8c=-56

5. Then divide 8 from both sides

C= -7

6. Then plug in -7 in 3c+64 and solve!

Answer:

11/3 or 3and2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To change a mixed number into a fraction, you multiply the whole number by the denominator and add it to the numerator.

4 and 2/5 = 22/5

1 and 1/5 = 6/5

To divide fractions, flip one upside down and then multiply top by top, bottom by bottom

(22/5) / (6/5) = (22/5) x (5/6) = (22x5)/(5x6) = 110/20 = 11/3 or 3and2/3

Select the table that represents a linear function. (Graph them if necessary.)

Answers

Answer:

table B represents the linear equation which is:

[tex]y=-3x+11[/tex]

The graph of the linear function is also attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table B values

x               y

0              11

1               8

2               5

3               2

As the equation for the linear function

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

As the y-intercept can be obtained by setting x=0

From the table, it is clear that when the value of x=0, then the value of

y=11.

so (0, 11) is the y-intercept.

Also taking two points (0, 11) and (1, 8) to find the slope

[tex]\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:11\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(1,\:8\right)[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{8-11}{1-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=-3[/tex]

so substituting the value m=-3 and the point (1, 8) in the point-slope form

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

[tex]y-8=-3\left(x-1\right)[/tex]

[tex]y-8=-3x+3[/tex]

[tex]y=-3x+3+8[/tex]

[tex]y=-3x+11[/tex]

comparing the equation with the slope-intercept form of linear equation

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]y=-3x+11[/tex]

here

m=slope=-3b=y-intercept=11

Therefore, table B represents the linear equation which is:

[tex]y=-3x+11[/tex]

The graph of the linear function is also attached below.

An airplane travels 780 miles in 4 hours. Make a table and graph to show the mileage for 2,8, and 12 hours. Is there a direct variation? Explain.


PLS HELP ME ON THIS QUESTION!!

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

As an airplane travels 780 miles in 4 hours.

We need to determine the table and graph to show the mileage for 2,8 and 12 hours.

as

The airplane covers the distance in 4 hours: 780 miles

so

The airplane covers miles in 1 hour will be: 780/4 = 195 miles

Hence, the table can be calculated as:

Hours                             Distance Mileage in Miles

[tex]2[/tex]                                       [tex]2\times195\:=\:390[/tex] miles

[tex]8[/tex]                                       [tex]8\times195 = 1560[/tex] miles

[tex]12[/tex]                                     [tex]12\times195 = 2340[/tex] miles

It is clear from the table that it is a direct variation as the constant is 195 miles per hour.

Please check the attached graph. The graph clearly indicates a direct variation.

Steven earns extra money babysitting he charges $33 for 4 hours and $57.75 for 7 hours entering an equation to represent the relationship let x represent the number of hours Stephen babysits and let y represent the amount he charges the equation is y = ​

Answers

Answer:

y = 8.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Modeling

Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If a situation comes where a linear model is suitable, then we need two sample points to make the model and predict unknown behaviors.

The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

The equation of a line passing through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be found as follows:

[tex]\displaystyle y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

Let's use linear modeling to represent Steven's earnings he makes babysitting. Call y the money he charges by x hours of work.

We know he charges y1=$33 for x1=4 hours, and y2=$57.75 for x2=7 hours. The ordered pairs are (4,33) and ( 7, 57.75)

Computing the equation of the line we have:

[tex]\displaystyle y-33=\frac{57.75-33}{7-4}(x-4)[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]\displaystyle y-33=\frac{24.75}{3}(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]y - 33 = 8.25( x - 4 )[/tex]

[tex]y = 8.25x - 33 + 33[/tex]

y = 8.25x

The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The abundance caused food prices to fall.The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas.As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization.In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S. residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents.The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas.Question:Select a sentence from the body of this article that can be removed without affecting the author's explanation.
