The distance from the lighthouse to the boat will be given by:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
θ=angle of depression=23
opposite= height of the lighthouse
adjacent=distance from the boat to the bottom of the light house
hence
tan 23=210/a
thus solving for a we obtain:
a=210/tan23
hence
a=494.73 ft

Y = 10x + 35

if y is cost per occupant and x is occupants, then we can read the equation as such:

Cost is equal to 10 times number of occupants plus a 35$ fee

10 times the number of occupants is the part we are worried about

The cost increases by 10$ for every occupant

Your answer is B. 2
This is because to rationalise the denominator, we need to multiply it by (3 - √7), so we get:
(3 + √7)(3 - √7)
3 × 3 = 9
3 × √7 = 3√7
3 × -√7 = -3√7
√7 × -√7 = -7
So all in all you get 9 - 7 which is 2.

I hope this helps!
