Answer and Explanation:

The problem provides the following information:

Hypotenuse

=

h

y

p

=

5129

ft

Vertical drop

=

o

p

p

=

1275

ft

To find the angle of depression, the best trigonometric ratio to use is the sine ratio. After equating it with the ratio of the opposite side over the hypotenuse, get the inverse of the sine ratio as shown:

sin

θ

=

o

p

p

h

y

p

θ

=

sin

−

(

0.2485864691

)

θ

=

14.3938824691

≈

14.4

No, they forgot to switch variable labels after solving for the independent variable...

y=-8x+4

y-4=-8x

(y-4)/-8=x 

Now that you have solved for the independent variable x, you switch the variable labels...

y=(x-4)/-8

f^-1(x)=(x-4)/-8     which should really be rewritten as:

f^-1(x)=(4-x)/8  :P
