Answer:

about 16°

Step-by-step explanation:

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Drawing the right triangle, we see that the shorter leg is 34 meters, and the longer leg is 122 meters. So the angle of elevation is:

\tan( \alpha )  =  \frac{34}{122}

\alpha  =  { \tan }^{ - 1}  \frac{34}{122}  = 15.57

Change the equation of the circle x^2+14x+y^2-10y=14x 2 + 14 x + y 2 − 10 y = 14 into center-radius form of a circle.
jonny [76]

Answer:

The answer to your question is      (x + 7)² + (y - 5)² = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

                     x²  +  14x  +  y²  - 10y   =  14

Complete perfect trinomial squares

                     x² + 14x + (7)² + y² - 10y + (5)² = 14 + (7)² + (5)²

Simplify

                     x² + 14x + (7)² + y² - 10y + (5)² = 14 + 49 + 25

                     x² + 14x + (7)² + y² - 10y + (5)² = 88

Factor

                     (x + 7)² + (y - 5)² = 88   This is the equation in the form

                     center-radius

Over which interval is the graph of f(x) = one-halfx2 + 5x + 6 increasing?
kaheart [24]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x\in[-5,\ \infty)}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=\dfrac{1}{2}x^2+5x+6\\\\\text{The coeficient of}\ x^2\ \text{is the positive number. Therefore the parabola is op}\text{en up}.\\\\\text{If a parabola op}\text{en up, then the graph increasing in interval}\ (h,\ \infty),\\\text{and decreasing in interval}\ (-\infty,\ h).\ \text{Where}\ h\ \text{is a first coordinate of a vertex.}\\\\\text{For}\ y=ax^2+bx+c,\ h=\dfrac{-b}{2a}.\\\\\text{We have}\ a=\dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{and}\ b=5.\ \text{Substitute:}\\\\h=\dfrac{-5}{2\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)}=-\cdot\dfrac{5}{1}=-5.
