Answer:
27 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can draw this out. Since the altitude is 8000, we can make that the height, and it goes 16000 feet through the air, that can be the length. I have drawn this out, as shown in the image. Note that when drawing, because the airplane is going up and forward, that path should represent the hypotenuse. The angle of elevation is the angle connecting the length and the path, as shown by the angle x in the picture.
We know than tan(x) = opposite/adjacent, so tan(x) here = 8000/16000 = 1/2. Then, arctan(1/2) =x = 27 degrees
Answer:
<u>x-intercept</u>
The point at which the curve <u>crosses the x-axis</u>, so when y = 0.
From inspection of the graph, the curve appears to cross the x-axis when x = -4, so the x-intercept is (-4, 0)
<u>y-intercept</u>
The point at which the curve <u>crosses the y-axis</u>, so when x = 0.
From inspection of the graph, the curve appears to cross the y-axis when y = -1, so the y-intercept is (0, -1)
<u>Asymptote</u>
A line which the curve gets <u>infinitely close</u> to, but <u>never touches</u>.
From inspection of the graph, the curve appears to get infinitely close to but never touches the vertical line at x = -5, so the vertical asymptote is x = -5
(Please note: we cannot be sure that there is a horizontal asymptote at y = -2 without knowing the equation of the graph, or seeing a larger portion of the graph).
Answer:
x = 20
Length = 20ft
Width = 12ft
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 240
x^2 - 8x = 240
x^2 - 8x - 240 = 0
x^2 - 20x + 12x - 240 = 0
x(x-20) + 12(x-20) = 0
(x+12)(x-20) = 0
x = 20
x = -12 (which we discard since x is a length)
So the dimensions are 20ft and 20-8 = 12ft
The answer would be the second option, 13.0 cm.
To find the missing length of the leg, you would use the pythagorean theorem and substitute your inputs in.
a^2+b^2=c^2
11^2+b^2=17^2
121+b^2=289
b^2=168
b=12.96
b=13.0 cm (rounded up)
From the graph we observe:
If x = 0 then y = 1/2 (because e⁰ = 1)
