While on spring break, Kayla decided she wanted to go parasailing She was held at a constant angle above the water by a large tow rope attached to the back of the boat. The length of the tow rope is 240 meters. If the angle of the rope keeps Kayla at a horizontal distance of 181 meters away from the boat, how high above the boat is Kayla?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

157.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Horizontal distance = 181m

Length of the rope =240m

To know how high above Kayla was, we will use the Pythagoras theorem.

According to the theorem;

d² = x²+y²

x is the horizontal distance

y is the vertical distance

d is the length of the rope

Substitute

240² = 181²+y²

y² = 240²-181²

y² = 24839

y = √24839

y = 157.6m

Hence the boat is 157.6m above Kayla

Step-by-step explanation:

90 minutes=1 and a half hour

hour=60 min

answer: A

explanation:
liz and mike both started at 4:15 pm.

mike stopped 90 minutes later. if liz stopped half an hour less than mike, then that means she stopped 60 minutes later. this is because half an hour is 30 and 90-30= 60.

therefore, we would add 60 minutes (or 1 hour because 60 minutes= 1 hour) to when she started, which is 4:15 pm.

4:15 pm + 1 hour = 5:15 pm

Consider the rule y = 5x + 7.
a. How many tiles are in Figure 0?
b. Which figure has 37 tiles?
c. In the equation y = mx + b, what do the letters m and b represent?

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the rule y = 5x + 7.

a. How many tiles are in Figure 0?

In figure 0, we let x=0

y = 5*0+7 = 0+7 = 7

b. Which figure has 37 tiles?

This means y = 37

37 = 5x+7

Subtract 7 from each side

37-7 = 5x+7-7

30 = 5x

Divide by 5

30/5 = 5x/5

6 =x

Figure 6 has 37 tiles

c. In the equation y = mx + b, what do the letters m and b represent?

m is the slope or how much it is increasing each time x increases by 1  and b is how much we start with when x =0

Solve the system by substitution.

A train leaves New Delhi at 4:00 p.m. and reaches Lucknow at midnight. Its speed is 55km/h. What is the distance between Delhi and Lucknow?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{440 km}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Work out time between New Delhi and Lucknow

12:00 - 4:00 = 8:00

→ State the speed formula

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

→ Rearrange to make distance the subject

Distance = Speed × Time

→ Substitute in the values

55 × 8 = 440 km

Solve the equation s = a + lw for the variable w

w= [tex]\frac{-a+s}{l}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for w.

s=a+lw

Step 1: Flip the equation.

lw+a=s

Step 2: Add -a to both sides.

lw+a+−a=s+−a

lw=−a+s

Step 3: Divide both sides by l

[tex]\frac{lw}{l} =\frac{-a+s}{l}[/tex]
