You are in an airplane 5.7 miles above the ground. What is the measure of BD⌢

Result:

6.1°; 425.86 m.

Step-by-step breakdown:

The information provided states that the airplane is at an altitude of 5.7 miles above ground level, while the "radius of Earth is about 4000 miles." Thus,

θ = 2 × cos^-1 (a/ (a + b)), where a = 4000 miles, and b = 5.7 miles.

θ = 2 × cos^-1 (4000/ (4000 + 5.7)) = 6.1°.

To calculate the distance in meters:

Change in distance = 6.1° /360° × 2π × 4000 miles = 425.86 meters.

Consequently, BD⌢ measures at 6.1° and the distance corresponding to this section of Earth is 425.86 meters.

Clarissa's income puts her in the bottom tax bracket (10%) last year. During the same year, she earned $250 in dividends and $75
Leona [12618]

Answer:

75 dollars in coupons.

250 dollars in dividends.

She achieved a profit of 600 - 425 = 175 from her stock investment.

Her complete income sums up to 250 + 75 + 175 = 500.

If all this is taxed at 10%, her tax will be 500 *.1 = 50.

The bar graph shows the numbers of reserved campsites at a campground for one week. What percent of the reservations were for Fr
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

66\frac{2}{3} \%

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attached bar graph.

The bar graph illustrates the count of reserved campsites at a campground across a week.

Consequently, the total number of reserved campsites on Friday and Saturday will amount to (26 + 30) = 56.

Now, calculating the total reservations from Monday to Sunday gives us (5 + 3 + 4 + 7 + 26 + 30 + 9) = 84.

Therefore, the percentage of bookings for Friday and Saturday will be

\frac{56}{84} \times 100\% = \frac{200}{3}\% = 66\frac{2}{3}\%. (Answer)

Which is the solution of the quadratic equation (4y-3)^2=72 ?
babunello [11817]
Greetings: 
<span>(4y-3)²=72 
4y-3 = </span>±√72
thus, y= (3+√72) /4   or y= (3 - √72) /4

At what point of the curve y = cosh(x does the tangent have slope 2?
Svet_ta [12734]
The hyperbolic cosine function (cosh) is defined as
cosh (x) = (e^x + e^-x) / 2
The tangent line's slope at any given point on a function is determined by the derivative of that function at that specific point.
d/dx [cosh(x)] = d/dx[(e^x + e^-x) / 2] = (e^x - e^-x) / 2 = sinh(x)
Assuming the slope equals 2, we have
sinh(x) = 2
thus,
x = sinh^-1 (2) = 1.444
Consequently, the curve of y = cosh(x) has a slope of 2 at the coordinate x = 1.44
