In playing from the tee, a golfer hooks his drive (hits the ball to the left of the correct direction) at an angle of 24 from the intended direction. He estimates that he has driven the ball 215 yards and that it lies 100 yards from the hole. Assuming his estimates are correct, what is the distance from the tee to the hole, to the nearest yard?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

245 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

You could say the tee is at (0, 0) and the hole lies on the x-axis.

The path of the ball is the straight-line so, y = tan(24°)x

215cos(24°) = 196.4

215sin(24°) = 87.4

The ball lands at coordinates (196.4, 87.4).

They say the ball lands 100 yards from the hole, the hole is on a circle of radius 100 that is centered at (196.4, 87.4).

Equation of the circle:

(x-196.4)² + (y-87.4)² = 100²

Since the hole is on the x-axis, it lies at the intersection of the circle and the line y = 0 so:

(x - 196.4)² + (0 - 87.4)² = 100²

x = 244.92

The distance between tee and hole is 245 yards.

Please help...If g(x) = x2 + 2, find g(3).

A: 9

B: 8

C: 11

D: 6

Answers

As the g(x)=x^(2)+2

To find the value of g(3) we have to put the value of x equal to 3 everywhere in g(x)

Therefore g(3)=(3)^2+2

on solving the equation

g(3) = 9+2

g(3) = 11

Hence g(3) =11 is the answer

Original price: $32 ;Markup: 12.5% ;what is Retail Price

Answers

The value of retail price is, $36.

What is mean by Percentage?

A number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100 or a relative value indicating hundredth part of any quantity is called percentage.

Given that;

Original price: $32

And, Markup: 12.5%

Now, The value of markup is,

⇒ 12.5% of $32

⇒ 12.5/100 × $32

⇒ 0.125 × $32

⇒ $4

Hence, The value of retail price = Original price + Markup price

                                                  = $32 + $4

                                                  = $36

How can I solve this inequality?

Answers

3+x ≥ 2
⇒ x ≥ 2-3
⇒ x ≥ -1

Final answer: x ≥ -1~
subtract 3 from the right and do the same to the left which leaves you to x = -1

What is -9x-(2x/-3) When x equals 7

Answers

-9x- (2x)/(-3)

-9*(7) - (2*7)/(-3)

9*7 = 63

(2*7)/(-3) = (14)/(-3)

Apply the fraction  rule : (a)/(-b) = - (a)/(b)

= - (14)/(3)

-63-( -(14)/(3) )

Apply rule  - ( - a) = a

-63+ (14)/(3)

Convert  element to fraction :

63 = (63)/(1)

-(63)/(1) + (14)/(3)

Find the LCD 1*3 = 3

- (63*3)/(3)+ (14)/(3)

(-3+63+14)/(3) = (-175)/(3)

Apply the fraction  rule : (a)/(-b) = - (a)/(b)

= - (175)/(3)

hope this helps!

Can you guys show me your work too please? :)Alisha wants to buy a camera that costs $228,including tax. She has saved $4.75 each week for the past 8 weeks. How much more money does Alisha need to purchase the camera?

Answers

Tell you what I'm gonna do:  I'll show you the work, and then
YOU can take the final steps to the answer.

Alisha needs $228.
She has been saving up for it.
How much more does she need ?
We'll know that, as soon as we figure out how much she has now.

She has saved $4.75 each week for the past 8 weeks.
That means she has put $4.75 into a jar 8 times.
So now, she has 8 times $4.75 .

How much is 8 times $4.75 ?

The difference between $228 and that number
is how much more she needs.

Over to you.
Take it !
