Answer:
f(x) = 
+ 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Y1: (4) + 6
Y2: (4*4) + 6
Y3: (4*4*4) + 6
Pattern: + 6
See picture below for a geometric view.
Let x = height of building
We use basic trigonometry to find x.
The tangent function = opposite side of right triangle OVER adjacent side of right triangle.
tan(2°) = x/1
Solve for x.
After multiplying both sides by 1 (here 1 represents 1 mile), we get
tan(2°) = x.
We now use the calculator to find x.
In fact, you can take it from here. Use your calculator.
Answer:
y = 2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
to do this problem, we will use the following formula to find the slope of the line
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(1,5) (2,7)
(7 - 5) / (2 - 1)
2 / 1
2 = m
next, we will substitute the slope and one of the points into the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) and solve for b to find the y-intercept
y = mx + b
7 = (5)(2) + b
7 = 10 + b
-3 = b
finally, we put it all together into one equation
y = 2x - 3
Subtract 19 from both sides
-3x=2+x
Subtract x from both sides
-4x=2
Divide both sides by -4
x=-1/2
Final answer: x=-1/2
