Given:
Height of the lighthouse = 280 feet
The angle of depression from the top of the lighthouse to a ship = 18°.
To find:
The distance between boat and shore.
Solution:
Draw a diagram by using the given information.
In a right angle triangle,
[tex]\tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]
In triangle ABC,
[tex]\tan C=\dfrac{AB}{BC}[/tex]
[tex]\tan 18^\circ=\dfrac{280}{BC}[/tex]
[tex]BC=\dfrac{280}{\tan 18^\circ}[/tex]
Using a calculator, we get
[tex]BC=\dfrac{280}{0.3249}[/tex]
[tex]BC=861.80363...[/tex]
[tex]BC\approx 862[/tex]
Therefore, the boat is 862 feet away from shore.
What should be added to 7/12 to get -4/15 ?
Answer:
-17/20
Step-by-step explanation:
7/12 + x = -4/15
Subtract 7/12 from both sides
x = -4/15 - 7/12
Use 60 as common denominator
x = -16/60 - 35/60
x = -51/60
Reduce
x = -17/20

please help, I'll give brainlist who answers my questions ax+by=2x-3y
Answer:
a=4, b=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
If it is vertical, then the y coefficient must be equal to zero, which means b = -3. When y is 0, a*3=2*3+6, which means a=4.
Answer:
a=4
b=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
ax+by=2x-3y+6 is vertical and passes through (3,0) which means the equation should be equivalent to x=3.
If we want the y's to cancel we need -3y on lefy since we have it on right so b=-3.
So now the equation is ax=2x+6
If ax=2x+6 and x=3, by substitution property we have a(3)=2(3)+6.
Let's solve for a.
3a=6+6.
3a=12
a=12/3
a=4.
a=4
b=-3

Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]sin(2\theta)=2sin\theta~cos\theta\\\\cos(2\theta)=cos^2\theta-sin^2\theta\\\\cos\theta=\frac{24}{25}\\\\sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta=1~=>sin\theta=\pm\sqrt{1-cos^2\theta}\\\\we ~will~ use~ the ~minus~ sign~because~sin\theta~is~negative~in~IV~cuadrant\\sin\theta=-\sqrt{1-{(\frac{24}{25})}^2}=-\frac{7}{25}[/tex]
Now we cal calculate the quantities requested
[tex]sin(2\theta)=2sin\theta cos\theta=2(-\frac{7}{25})\frac{24}{25}=-\frac{336}{625}\\\\[/tex]
[tex]cos(2\theta)=cos^2\theta-sin^2\theta=(\frac{24}{25})^2-(-\frac{7}{25})^2=\frac{527}{625}[/tex]
[tex]tan(2\theta)=\frac{sin(2\theta)}{cos(2\theta)}=\frac{-\frac{336}{625}}{\frac{527}{625}}=-\frac{336}{527}[/tex]
A formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle is P=2L+2W. If you know the perimeter (P) and width (W) of a rectangle, which formula can you use to find the length (L)?
Step-by-step explanation:
→ P = 2L + 2W
→ P = 2(L + W)
→ P ÷ 2 = L + W
→ (P ÷ 2) - W = L
We can use this formula to to calculate the length.

Step-by-step explanation:
Here, X = the number of nonzero digits in a randomly selected 5-digit PIN that has no restriction on the digits.
Possible number of outcomes = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10
= 100,000
Possible outcomes Associated X values
12345 5
04555 4

Answer:
n= 2x-6y
Step-by-step explanation:
So we might look at this and have an immediate panic attack, but if there is one thing we might look to to help us, it would be logarithms. Logarithms have many wonderful properties that will help us solve this equation. Let's get started:
1. This is the starting equation. [tex](2^{\frac{1}{2} } )^{n} =\frac{2^x}{8^y}[/tex]
2. Let's use the power to power rule on the left and multiply 1/2 by n:
a. [tex]2^{\frac{1}{2}n } =\frac{2^x}{8^y}[/tex]
3. Next, lets take the log of both sides and use the properties of logarithms:
a. [tex]2^{\frac{1}{2}n } =\frac{2^x}{8^y}[/tex]
b. [tex]log(2^{\frac{1}{2}n }) =log(\frac{2^x}{8^y})[/tex]
c. One property we are allowed to use is bringing down the exponent on the left, and another property we can use is when you have the log of a fraction, that is the same thing as the log(numerator)-log(denominator)
d. [tex]\frac{1}{2}n *log(2) =log(2^x)-log(8^y)[/tex]
e. After we do this, we can use the same property of bringing down the exponent on the right side:
f. [tex]\frac{1}{2}n *log(2) =x*log(2)-y*log(8)[/tex]
g. After this, because log(2) and 1/2 are both numbers and are multiplied by n, we can divide them from both sides, and simplify:
h. [tex]\frac{1}{2}n =\frac{x*log(2)-y*log(8)}{log(2)}[/tex]
i. [tex]2(\frac{1}{2})n =2\frac{x*log(2)-y*log(8)}{log(2)}[/tex]
j. [tex]n =2\frac{x*log(2)-y*log(8)}{log(2)}[/tex]
k. After this, we must simplify the fraction because log(2)/log(2)=1, and log(8)/log(2)=3, these are both because 2^1=2 and 2^3=8 respectively:
l. [tex]n =2(\frac{x*log(2)}{log(2)}-\frac{y*log(8)}{log(2)} )[/tex]
m. Lastly, let's cancel and distribute:
n. [tex]n =2(x-3y)[/tex]
o. [tex]n=2x-6y[/tex]

What is the surface area of the right cylinder below?
Answer:
Ok to find the surface area of this cylinder first we need the circumference to find this we do C=πd
C=3.14*18
C=56.52
now we have to multiple this by the height of two
113.04
now we have to find the area of the bottom to do this we do A=πR^2
A=3.14*81
A=254.34
multiple this by two for the two sides we get
508.68
now we add this to 113.04 we get
621.72
since I used 3.14 instead of more digits of pie we can round this up so the answer is C.

Find the measure of each acute angle
Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of interior angles in a triangle = 180 degrees
The given is a right triangle which means one of the angle is = 90
so the sum of 3x + 2x = 90
5x = 90 divide both sides by 5
x = 18 to find the measure of angles replace x with 18

7. Suppose you roll a fair, six-sided die 2000 times and then make a histogram of your results. Which of the following would most likely be characteristics of the histogram you would obtain?
a. Skewed-right
b. Symmetric, with a central peak
c. Skewed-left
d. Uniform
Uniform would most likely be characteristics of the histogram obtain.
What is histogram?A histogram is a rough representation of the distribution of numerical data. The term was first coined by Karl Pearson.
The histogram is the width of the area covered by the x-axis bars. These are approximate values because the histograms show the bin values instead of the original data values.
If a histogram is bell-shaped, it can be modestly described by its center and width. The center is the location of its axis of symmetry. The spread is the distance between the center and one of its inflection points.

The solution to the system graphed below is (1, -2).
(PIC 2)
TRUE OR FALSE
Answer:
1 is false
2 is true
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution is the coordinate where the two lines intersect
For the first image the two lines intersect at (3,5) therefore (0,4) is not a solution to the system of equations
For the second image the lines intersect at (1,-2) therefore the statement is true
