The horizontal distance between light house and boat is 1588.78 feet approximately.

The figure is given by,

Here, AB  = height of the lighthouse bacon light above the water = 139 feet

Now angle ACB = 5 degree

Let the horizontal distance of light house from the boat = BC = x feet

So by trigonometric function we get,

tan 5 = AB/BC

tan 5 = 139/x

x = 139/tan 5 = 1588.78 (approximately)

Hence the horizontal distance between light house and boat is 1588.78 feet approximately.

Using only the values given in the table for the function f(x) = –x3 + 4x + 3, what is the largest interval of x-values where th
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

the largest interval of x values where f(x) is increasing is (-1,1).

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-x^3+4x+3

the domain of  f(x) is all real numbers.

As we can conclude from the table that the function f(x) is decreasing from (-3, -1) and the function is increasing from (-1, 1) .

Graphically we can also show this that for the x-values in  (1,-1) function is increasing.
