A ranger spots a forest fire while on a 30-meter observation tower. The angle of depression from the tower to the fire is 14°. To the nearest meter, how far is the fire from the base of the tower?
a. 7 meters
b. 4 meters
c. 124 meters
d. 120 meters
The fire from the base of the tower is at 120 m and Option D is the correct answer.
What is Angle of Depression ?The angle of depression is an angle formed between the horizontal line and the line of sight when an observer looks downwards at an object is known as an angle of depression.
The formula is
[tex]\rm sin\;\theta = y/z\\\\\\cos\; \theta = x/z\\\\\\tan\; \theta = y/x[/tex]
where x is the distance between the point of the ground and the object , horizontally,
y is the perpendicular distance between the surface to the object
and z is the measure of line of sight
[tex]\rm \theta[/tex] is the angle of depression = 14°
It is given in the question that y= 30 m
x= ?
To determine we will substitute the value
[tex]\rm tan\; \theta = y/x\\\\\\tan \;14^{o} = 30/ x\\\\\\0.25 = 30/x\\\\\\\x= 30/0.25\\\\\\x= 120 m\\[/tex]
Therefore the fire from the base of the tower is at 120 m and Option D is the correct answer.

Answer:
DCB = 44 degree
Step-by-step explanation:
DAB (given = 100
(180-100 ) / 2 = 40
ADB = ABD = 40 degree (each)
ADC (given = 108
BDC = DBA = 108-40 = 68 degree;
(subtracting angle inscribed within another triangle)
Triangle DBC = 180- 68+68 = 180 - 136 = 44 degree
Find DCB We have found BDC and DBA by deducting ADB from ADC
to get BDC
Then we deduct BDC from ADC to get DCB

Find the value of a
in the equation,(3+4√3)(2-a√3)=-18+2√3
Given:
The equation is:
[tex]\left(3+4\sqrt{3}\right)\left(2-a\sqrt{3}\right)=-18+2\sqrt{3}[/tex]
To find:
The value of a.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]\left(3+4\sqrt{3}\right)\left(2-a\sqrt{3}\right)=-18+2\sqrt{3}[/tex]
On simplification, we get
[tex](3)(2)+(4\sqrt{3})(2)+(3)(-a\sqrt{3})+(4\sqrt{3})(-a\sqrt{3})=-18+2\sqrt{3}[/tex]
[tex]6+8\sqrt{3}-3a\sqrt{3}-4a(3)=-18+2\sqrt{3}[/tex]
[tex]6+8\sqrt{3}-3a\sqrt{3}-12a=-18+2\sqrt{3}[/tex]
[tex](6-12a)+(8-3a)\sqrt{3}=-18+2\sqrt{3}[/tex]
On comparing both sides, we get
[tex]6-12a=-18[/tex]
[tex]-12a=-18-6[/tex]
[tex]a=\dfrac{-24}{-12}[/tex]
[tex]a=2[/tex]
And,
[tex]8-3a=2[/tex]
[tex]-3a=2-8[/tex]
[tex]a=\dfrac{-6}{-3}[/tex]
[tex]a=2[/tex]
Therefore, the value of a is 2.
How many solutions exist for the given equation?
1/2(x + 12) = 4x - 1
zero
one
two
O infinitely many
Answer: X = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation!
Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.
Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.
Step 4: Multiply both sides by 2/(-7).

Marcie Ann Weber, age 32, takes out $15,000 of a term insurance for a ten year term.
annual premium: $
quarterly premium: $
Answer:
Annual premium = $1,500 per year
Quarterly premium = $375 per quarter
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Insured amount of term insurance plan = $15,000
Number of year = 10 year
Find:
Annual premium
Quarterly premium
Computation:
Annual premium = Insured amount of term insurance plan / Number of year
Annual premium = $15,000 / 10
Annual premium = $1,500 per year
Quarterly premium = Insured amount of term insurance plan / Number of quarter in 10 year
Quarterly premium = 15,000 / (10 x 4)
Quarterly premium = 15,000 / 40
Quarterly premium = $375 per quarter
What is the sum of the first 47 terms of the sequence? -215, -201, -187, -173, ...
Answer:
5029
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is
d = - 201 - (- 215) = - 187 - (- 201) = - 173 - (- 187) = 14
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with sum to n term
= [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = - 215 and d = 14 , then
= [ (2 × - 215) + (46 × 14) ]
= 23.5 (- 430 + 644)
= 23.5 × 214
= 5029
Find the volume of the solid
Answer:
V = 2784 mm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The base of this prism is a right triangle. We can use the formula:
A = bh/2
to find the area of the base. A is area, b is base, and h is height. We can substitute what we have:
A = 16 * 12 / 2
A = 96
The volume of a prism is represented by the formula:
V = Bh
Where V is the volume, B is the base, and h is the height.
We have the area of the base as 96 and the height as 29, so we can substitute them in:
V = 96 * 29
V = 2784 mm^3

4 When Janelle was born, her grandmother put $200 into a college savings account for her.
Each month, her grandmother adds $50 to the account. Which inequality can be used to find
m, the number of months it will take for Janelle's savings account to have more than $1,250
in savings?
A 200m + 50 > 1,250
B 200 + 50m > 1,250
C 200 + 50m < 1,250
D 200m + 50 < 1,250
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
200+50m >1250
This means that for every month her grandmother gives 50 for an unknown amount of months along with the first 200 dollars.
The greater than 1250 shows that until she is greater than 1250 she'll keep getting money
Tom and Susan park at different lots.
To see which lot is busier, they count the numbers of cars in the lots each day as they arrive.
Their data are shown in the box plots.
the questions to compare the variabilities of the data sets.
1. What is the interquartile range for Tom's data? Explain how you found the interquartile range.
Write your answer in the space below.
1
Answer:
Tom = 5
Susan = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
FROM THE BOXPLOT :
Tom's IQR :
IQR = Q3 - Q1
Q3 = third quartile (value at the endpoint of the box)
Q1 = 1st quartile (value at the beginning of the box)
IQR = 9 - 4
IQR = 5
SUSAN :
IQR = Q3 - Q1
Q3 = third quartile (value at the endpoint of the box)
Q1 = 1st quartile (value at the beginning of the box)
IQR = 8 - 5
IQR = 3

How far from the base of the house do you need to place an 18’ ladder so that it exactly reaches the top of a 14’ wall?
Answer:
Length of Ladder(Hypotenuse)=18
Height of wall(Opposite) =14
How far from the base... This talks about the adjacent or distance between the wall and the base.
You can get your answer from Pythagoras theorem
Which states
The square of the hypotenuse is = to the squares of the adjacent and Opposite sides

Answer: 5.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it’s closer to six but still In the 5 range.
15 31/40 to the nearest whole number
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the number is closer to 16, it can be rounded off to that. 15 31/40 is the same as 15.78. When the decimal is over .50 it is rounded up to the next whole number, but when it is under .50 it si rounded down to the nearest whole number. ex. since this one is over the .50, it's rounded up, but if it were 15.36 then it would be rounded down to 15. hope this helps :D

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point(-1,-3) and is perpendicularly to the line x-2y=14
Answer:
the equation will be
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+y+5=0
Answer:
2x + y + 5 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of line is x-2y = 14 and we need to find the equⁿ of line which passes through (-1,-3) and is perpendicular to given line.
Find the slope of given line by converting it into slope intercept form.=> x - 2y = 14
=> 2y = x - 14
=> y = x-14/2
=> y = x/2 - 7
Comparing to y = mx + c ,=> Slope (m) = 1/2 .
Now the slope of line perpendicular to it , will have a slope ,
=>[tex] m_{perp}[/tex] = -1/m
=>[tex] m_{perp}[/tex] = -1/½
=> [tex] m_{perp}[/tex] = -2
Using point slope form ,=> m = (y - y₁) / ( x - x₁)
=> -2 = { y - (-3) } / { x - (-1) }
=> -2 = y + 3/x + 1
=> -2(x + 1) = y + 3
=> -2x -2 = y + 3
=> y + 2x +3+2 = 0
=> 2x + y + 5 = 0
Hence the equation of line perpendicular to it is 2x + y + 5 = 0 .Two squares were used to form a figure. The side length of each square is shown.

Oranges cost 2.50 cents
How much did James pay for 8296 oranges
•ω• Hewo fren!
☆☆●◉✿Answer:✿◉●☆☆
20740
☆☆●◉✿Step-by-step explanation:✿◉●☆☆
Since the oranges cost 2.50 cents each then the ratio would be 2.50 cents to 1 orange, 2.5:1. James is buying 8296 oranges so we would have to multiply the ratio by 8296 since the oranges increased. 1 × 8296 = 8296.
2.5 × 8296 = 20740. James paid 20740 dollars for 8296 oranges. (20740:8296 would be the ratio.)
