Need help with this question
1 answer:
The local maximum of the equation y = x³ - 5x + 2 is y = 6.3 which occurs at x = -1.29
<h3>What is an equation?</h3>An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
Given the equation:
y = x³ - 5x + 2
The maximum is at dy/dx = 0, hence:
3x² - 5 = 0
x = -1.29 or x = 1.29
y = (-1.29)³ - 5(-1.29) + 2 = 6.3
The local maximum of the equation y = x³ - 5x + 2 is y = 6.3 which occurs at x = -1.29

Answer:
From the photo above i interpreted the question and drew a triangle to make it easier to solve
Tan is used to solve the question as we were given opposite (as height of the cliff) and to find Adjacent ( the distance between the foot of the cliff to the boat)
Tan θ =Opp/Adj
Tan 22°=15/a
Cross Multiply
aTanθ=15°
Divide both sides by Tan 22
aTan22/Tan22 = 15/Tan 22
a = 15/Tan 22°
a = 37.13 m
Therefore the distance between the foot of the cliff to the boat is 37.13 metres
