We have a triangle where.
a=adjacent leg of A=30 ft
A=90º-(angle of depression)=90º-10º=80º
b=distance between the base of the lighthouse and the ship
tan A= opposite /adjacent.
tan 80º=b /30 ft  ⇒b=(30 ft)(tan 80º)≈170.14 ft

Answer: the distance would be 170.14 ft

Eva has borrowed 200 songs from her friend. She plans to download an equal number of songs on her music player each week for 5 w
Alenkasestr [34]

PART A)

The rate of change is -40 songs each week, because the amount of songs left to be downloaded decrease by 40 every week.

<span>the initial value is 200 at 0 weeks, which means that there are 200 songs to be downloaded at the beginning</span>

PART B)

<span><span><span> <span><span>calculate the slope:
</span><span> m = (y2- y1)/(x2 - x1) = (160 - 200)/(1 - 0)
m = -40
now use the line equation in form of point-slope
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 200 = -40(x - 0)
y = -40x + 200</span></span> </span></span></span>
