ScanSolve AI Answer
Step-by-step solution
8 stepsa) To determine how much money Okello earned, we first calculate the volume of the ice cream bucket, then the volume of one small tin, find out how many tins can be filled, and finally calculate the total earnings.
Calculate the volume of the frustum (ice cream bucket).
The bucket is a frustum with top diameter 48 cm (radius cm), bottom diameter 14 cm (radius cm), and height cm.
The volume of a frustum is given by .Calculate the volume of one cylindrical tin.
Each tin is a cylinder with diameter 7 cm (radius cm) and height cm.
The volume of a cylinder is given by .Determine the number of small tins that can be filled.
The number of tins is the total volume of ice cream divided by the volume of one tin. We take the floor since only full tins are sold.
So, 86 full tins can be filled.
Calculate the total money earned.
Each tin is sold for UGX 2,000.
Okello earned .
b) To determine how close Okello moved towards the tree, we use trigonometry to find his initial and final distances from the tree.
Determine the effective height of the mango tree.
The height of the tree is 25 m, and Okello's height is 1.5 m. The effective height for the angle of elevation is the height of the mango above Okello's eye level.
Calculate Okello's initial horizontal distance from the tree.
The initial angle of elevation is . Let be the initial horizontal distance.
Calculate Okello's final horizontal distance from the tree.
The angle of elevation increased by , so the final angle . Let be the final horizontal distance.
Calculate how close Okello moved towards the tree.
The distance Okello moved is the difference between the initial and final distances.
Okello moved approximately closer to the tree.
