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

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

f(x) is equal to -1 when x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=f(x)=-1

This is a constant function

we know that

A <u>constant function</u> is a function whose output value is the same for every input value

therefore

when x=3 (input value)

The value of the function is y=-1 (output value)

a flat-bottom reflecting pool has length 30 yards, width 10 yards, and depth 0.3 yard. Find th e surface area of the pool and th
Zigmanuir [339]
The surface area of the object above can be calculated by summing up all the areas of the surfaces. Therefore, we will have 5 surfaces with rectangles as the shape. The volume would be the product of the length, width and the depth. We calculate as follows:

SA = 2(depth)(length) + 2(depth)(width) + (width)(length)
SA = 324 yd^2

VOlume = 30x10x.3
Volume = 90 yd^3
