Solve each equation. check you solution. (7t - 2) - (-3t + 1) = -3(1 - 3t)

1 answer:

5 0

(7t-2) - (-3t+1) = -3*(1-3t)
First distribute:
7t-2+3t-1 = -3+9t
Now get all the terms with 't' on the same side by subtracting/adding:
7t+3t-9t = -3+2+1
Combine the terms:
1t=0
t=0

Check:
Plug in 0 for t and see if both sides of the equation come out the same:
Does (7(0)-2) - (-3(0)+1) = -3(1-3(0)) ?
(-2) - (1) = -3(1) ?
-3 = -3 ?
Yes! It works, so t=0!

The angle of depression from the top of a cruise ship to the top of a sailboat is 22. Sitting above water, the cruise ship is 23

dusya [7]

Answer:

The distance between the cruise ship and the sail boat is 517 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cruise ship is 236 feet tall, and the sailboat is 236 tall; this means the distance between the top of the cruise ship and the top of the sail boat is

236 feet - 27 feet = 209 feet.

We also know that the angel of depression from the top of the cruise ship to the bottom of the cruise ship is 22°. This forms a right triangle as shown in the figure attached.

Now from trigonometry we get:

$tan \: \theta = \dfrac{209}{d}$
