C because I just did that
15x, because 2 × 4x= 8x and -1×-7=7x...add 8x and 7x ull get the answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let y=ab^x
x=0,y=18
18=ab^0=a
a=18
y=18b^x
when x=2,y=1152
Answer:
c. 35.34015106
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many problems of this nature, you only need to get close to be able to choose the correct answer. 22 minutes 45 seconds is just slightly less than 1/2 degree (30 minutes), so the tangent value will be just slightly less than tan(88.5°) ≈ 38. The appropriate choice is 35.34015106.
If you need confirmation, you can find tan(88°) ≈ 29, so you know the answer will be between 29 and 38.

The above has to do with strategies for choosing answers on multiple-choice problems. Below, we will work the problem.
The angle is (in degrees) ...
88 + 22/60 +45/3600 = 88 + (22·60 +45)/3600 = 88 +1365/3600
≈ 88.3791666... (repeating) . . . . degrees
A calculator tells you the tangent of that is ...
tan(88.3791666...°) ≈ 35.3401510614
Many calculators will round that to 10 digits, as in the answer above. Others can give a value correct to 32 digits. Spreadsheet values will often be correct to 15 or 16 digits.
